"After binding the AP-containing DNA substrate, APE1 is acetylated at multiple N-terminal Lys residues and acetylated APE1 apparently stabilizes the G4 structure in cells while also increasing the residence time of APE1 on the G4 structure to coordinate transcription factors and to act therefore as a gene expression modulator."

"The regulatory functions modulating the activity of APE1/Ref-1 are complex and controlled through three different mechanisms [29,30]: 1) increase in APE1/Ref-1 expression after transcriptional activation; 2) re-localization of APE1/Ref-1 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus; and 3) modulation of APE1/Ref-1 posttranslational modifications such as acetylation and phosphorylation."

"In agreement with our results, ElSayed et al. [63] documented a significant upregulation of the APX gene in Phaseolus vulgaris seedlings exposed to 200 mM of NaCl for 3 h and 14 days.The increased APX gene expression, supporting the aforementioned increase in APX activity, accelerates the ASA-GSH cycle in regenerating ascorbates at the expense of GSH oxidation."

"Especially, the development of adipose tissue-specific APE1/Ref-1 knockout animals will contribute to identifying the biological role of APE1/Ref-1 in adipose tissue.In conclusion, our study demonstrated that endogenous APE1/Ref-1 is downregulated during adipocyte differentiation, whereas overexpression of APE1/Ref-1 inhibits adipocyte differentiation; in contrast, silencing APE1/Ref-1 and redox inhibition using E3330 promotes adipocyte differentiation through the modulation of expression of adipogenic transcriptional factors."
