Retinoids are potent immune modulators that inhibit Fas ligand (FasL) expression and thereby repress the activationinduced apoptosis of immature thymocytes and T-cell hybridomas. In this study, we demonstrate that all-transretinoic acid (all-trans-RA) directly represses the transcriptional activity of the nuclear factors of activated T-cells (NFAT), which is an important transactivator of the FasL promoter. The analysis of reporter constructs containing the FasL promoter and wild-type or mutant NFAT bindingsites indicated that all-trans-RA repression was mediated via an NFAT binding element located in the promoter. A reporter construct comprising the NFAT binding sequence linked to a heterologous SV-40 promoter showed that...
