Abstract

Early growth response-1 (Egr-1) can participate in the regulation of cellular growth and differentiation, as well as cell growth control process by regulating a series of genes which are associated with cellular growth, proliferation and differentiation in cell cycle, and it also promote cell proliferation and tissue repair. Egr-1 can be influenced by a diversity of upstream molecules and combine to the specific sequences of the promoter region in downstream molecules. Egr-1 gene expression is induced instantly when suffered extensive stimulus, which can lead to different functions. The impacts of Egr-1 on animal growth, reproduction and immunity were reviewed in this article.
