NK2 homeobox gene cluster: Functions and roles in human diseases
Genes and Diseases, 2023 NK2 genes (NKX2 gene cluster in humans) encode for homeodomain-containing transcription factors that are conserved along the phylogeny. According to the most detailed classifications, vertebrate NKX2 genes are classified into two distinct families, NK2.1

Homeobox Genes in Embryogenesis and Pathogenesis [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1997 The homeobox, a 60-amino acid-encoding DNA sequence, originally discovered in the genome of the fruit fly Drosophila, was subsequently identified throughout the three kingdoms of multicellular organisms. Homeobox-containing genes encode DNA-binding proteins that regulate gene expression and control various aspects of morphogenesis and cell ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In ovarian cancer, MEOX1 activates the SPHK1/S1P pathway to promote both tumor progression and tumor–stroma crosstalk. MEOX1‐dependent signaling drives CAF activation, enhances VEGF‐C expression, and stimulates lymphangiogenesis, ultimately facilitating lymph node metastasis.

Boosting Sensory Nerve‐to‐Bone Interactions Enhances Hedgehog Mediated Calvarial Bone Repair
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Boosting sensory nerve activity via TrkA agonism strongly accelerates calvarial bone repair in adult mice. Furthermore, single‐cell RNA sequencing and neuron–bone interactome analyses identify these sensory neurons as a direct neural source of Hedgehog pathway ligands. Consequently, these ligands drive osteoblast differentiation of skeletal progenitors,

Identification of a Prognostic Signature Associated With the Homeobox Gene Family for Bladder Cancer
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Background: Bladder cancer (BLCA) is a common malignant tumor of the genitourinary system, and there is a lack of specific, reliable, and non-invasive tumor biomarker tests for diagnosis and prognosis evaluation.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Floral meristem (FM) activity is crucial for the initiation of floral organs. In this study, SE represses IPT7 expression and cytokinin signaling via both the miR171c‐5p–KNAT2 and miR164c–CUC1/2–KNAT2 regulatory modules, thereby repressing FM activity. In contrast, STM induces both KNAT2 and IPT7 expression.

Homeobox genes: going for growth [PDF]
Gut, 2002 The role of homeobox genes and dietary factors in gut growth and differentiation In this issue of Gut , Domon-Dell and colleagues1 report the influence of butyrate on the intestinal homeobox gene Cdx2 [ see page 525 ]. Butyrate is a byproduct of fibre fermentation by colonic bacteria and is known to be a substrate for colonocytes.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...
