FoxO Proteins in the Nervous System
Acute as well as chronic disorders of the nervous system lead to significant morbidity and mortality for millions of individuals globally. Given the ability to govern stem cell proliferation and differentiated cell survival, mammalian forkhead ...

The Forkhead Transcription Factor Foxo1 Regulates Adipocyte Differentiation [PDF]
An outstanding question in adipocyte biology is how hormonal cues are relayed to the nucleus to activate the transcriptional program that promotes adipogenesis. The forkhead transcription factor Foxo1 is regulated by insulin via Akt-dependent phosphorylation and nuclear exclusion.

Analysis of the transcriptional program of developing induced regulatory T cells. [PDF]
CD25+ regulatory T cells develop in the thymus (nTregs), but may also be generated in the periphery upon stimulation of naive CD4 T cells under appropriate conditions (iTregs). To gain insight into the mechanisms governing iTreg development, we performed

FOXO transcription factors differ in their dynamics and intra/intermolecular interactions
Transcription factors play key roles in orchestrating a plethora of cellular mechanisms and controlling cellular homeostasis. Transcription factors share distinct DNA binding domains, which allows to group them into protein families.

Signaling Network of Forkhead Family of Transcription Factors (FOXO) in Dietary Restriction
Dietary restriction (DR), which is defined as a reduction of particular or total nutrient intake without causing malnutrition, has been proved to be a robust way to extend both lifespan and health-span in various species from yeast to mammal.

The Role of Polo-Like Kinase 1 in Regulating the Forkhead Box Family Transcription Factors
Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a serine/threonine kinase with more than 600 phosphorylation substrates through which it regulates many biological processes, including mitosis, apoptosis, metabolism, RNA processing, vesicle transport, and G2 DNA-damage ...

Quantitative model of eukaryotic Cdk control through the Forkhead CONTROLLER
In budding yeast, synchronization of waves of mitotic cyclins that activate the Cdk1 kinase occur through Forkhead transcription factors. These molecules act as controllers of their sequential order and may account for the separation in time of ...

Forkhead Domains of FOXO Transcription Factors Differ in both Overall Conformation and Dynamics
FOXO transcription factors regulate cellular homeostasis, longevity and response to stress. FOXO1 (also known as FKHR) is a key regulator of hepatic glucose production and lipid metabolism, and its specific inhibition may have beneficial effects on ...
