Negative Regulation of the Forkhead Transcription Factor FKHR by Akt [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
The FKHR gene was first identified from its disruption by the t(2;13) chromosomal translocation seen in the pediatric tumor alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. It encodes for a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors. Recently, a homolog of FKHR in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was identified called DAF-16, which is a downstream target of ...

Upregulation of Id1 by Epstein-Barr Virus-encoded LMP1 confers resistance to TGFβ-mediated growth inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded LMP1 protein is commonly expressed in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). LMP1 is a prime candidate for driving tumourigenesis given its ability to activate multiple signalling pathways and to alter the expression

Targeting the core of neurodegeneration: FoxO, mTOR, and SIRT1

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2021
The global increase in lifespan noted not only in developed nations, but also in large developing countries parallels an observed increase in a significant number of non-communicable diseases, most notable neurodegenerative disorders.

Role of forkhead transcription factors in endocrine sensitive and resistant breast cancer cell lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Breast cancer is a major concern worldwide as it accounts for one of the highest causes of death. Oestrogen which is widely known for its growth-promoting function in mammary gland has been linked to breast cancer pathogenesis.

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

The mutations and potential targets of the forkhead transcription factor FOXL2 [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2008
Mutations of FOXL2, a gene encoding a forkhead transcription factor, have been shown to cause the blepharophimosis-ptosis-epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES). This genetic disorder is characterized by eyelid and mild craniofacial abnormalities that can appear associated with premature ovarian failure. FOXL2 is one of the earliest ovarian markers and it

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Forkhead transcription factors, Fkh1p and Fkh2p, collaborate with Mcm1p to control transcription required for M-phase

open access: yes, 2000
Background: The ‘CLB2 cluster’ in Saccharomyces cerevisiae consists of approximately 33 genes whose transcription peaks in late G2/early M phase of the cell cycle.

The function of the protein phosphatase Glc7p in transcription termination, RNA processing and transcriptional regulation of ribosomal protein genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Gene transcription in general can be subdivided into three main phases: transcription initiation, elongation and termination. The enzyme that accomplishes transcription of protein coding genes, snRNAs and snoRNAs is RNA polymerase II (RNAP II).

Transcriptional Dysregulation of Autophagy in Aging and Potential Interventions: Insights Into TFEB and FOXOs

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular degradation and recycling process essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. However, autophagic activity declines with age, contributing to the accumulation of damaged organelles and protein aggregates.
