Changes in intracellular concentrations of Na+ and K+ are shown to alter Fos gene expression. Here, we obtained a genetic construct encoding TurboGFP-dest1 gene under control of the human Fos promoter (-549; +155) and studied its expression in HEK293T. Amplification of the Fos promoter sequence from genomic DNA was only efficient in the presence of Li+ ions. Ouabain and medium with replacement of Na+ with Li+ ions resulted in the accumulation of Na+ and Li+ in cells, respectively. These stimuli increased the mRNA level of endogenous Fos and the average fluorescence intensity of TurboGFP-dest1 in transfected cells. The mRNA level of TurboGFP-dest1 was extremely higher than the mRNA level of endogenous Fos and was little affected by the stimuli.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
