Effect of taurine on the transcriptional activity of the TXNIP promoter between +122/+256. Caco-2 cells were transfected with a reporter vector containing partial promoter regions of TXNIP (+122/+178, +162/+218, +211/+256) and then replaced with a medium containing 100 mM of taurine. After 24 h, the cells were subjected to luciferase assay. The results are expressed as relative values, with a control value of +122/+178 as 1. Each value represents the mean ± S.E. (n = 3), * p < 0.05, vs. the control value (Student’s t-test).
