The Forkhead Transcription Factor FoxC2 Inhibits White Adipocyte Differentiation [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
In this study, we show that expression of FoxC2 blocks the capacity of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes to undergo adipogenesis in the presence of dexamethasone, isobutylmethylxanthine, and insulin. This block is characterized by an extensive decrease in the expression of proteins associated with the function of the mature fat cell, most notably C/EBPalpha ...

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular 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.

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

Frontiers 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.

Cellular senescence and aging: the role of B-MYB [PDF]

, 2014
Cellular senescence is a stable cell cycle arrest, caused by insults, such as: telomere erosion, oncogene activation, irradiation, DNA damage, oxidative stress, and viral infection.

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

3D Soft Hydrogels Induce Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells “Deep” Quiescence

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional soft hydrogels mimicking the bone marrow niche induce deep quiescence in human mesenchymal stem cells. Unlike 2D culture, 3D matrices halt proliferation, regulate cell‐cycle and quiescence markers, and downregulate mTORC1 signaling, preserving stem cell phenotype and therapeutic potential ex vivo.

The yeast forkhead transcription factors fkh1 and fkh2 regulate lifespan and stress response together with the anaphase-promoting complex. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2012
Forkhead box O (FOXO) transcription factors have a conserved function in regulating metazoan lifespan. A key function in this process involves the regulation of the cell cycle and stress responses including free radical scavenging.

Schizosaccharomyces pombe Pol II transcription elongation factor ELL functions as part of a rudimentary super elongation complex [PDF]

, 2018
ELL family transcription factors activate the overall rate of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription elongation by binding directly to Pol II and suppressing its tendency to pause.

The forkhead transcription factor Foxc2 stimulates osteoblast differentiation

Bone, 2009
The forkhead box C2 (Foxc2) protein is a member of the family of winged helix/forkhead transcription factors. Foxc2-deficient mice display defective formation of the aortic arches, multiple craniofacial bones, and vertebral columns. To investigate the role of Foxc2 in osteoblast differentiation, DNA containing Foxc2 was transfected into the developing ...
