The effects of extracellular vesicles derived from Krüppel-Like Factor 2 overexpressing endothelial cells on the regulation of cardiac inflammation in the dilated cardiomyopathy

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2022
Background Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the common causes of heart failure. Myocardial injury triggers an inflammatory response and recruits immune cells into the heart. High expression of Krüppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) in endothelial cells (ECs)

Klf2 Is an Essential Regulator of Vascular Hemodynamic Forces In Vivo [PDF]

Developmental Cell, 2006
Hemodynamic responses that control blood pressure and the distribution of blood flow to different organs are essential for survival. Shear forces generated by blood flow regulate hemodynamic responses, but the molecular and genetic basis for such regulation is not known.

MiR‐32‐5p promoted epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells via regulating the KLF2/CXCR4 pathway

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common carcinomas of the oral cavity. However, the regulatory mechanisms on miR‐32‐5p remain poorly understood in OSCC.

KLF2 Inhibits the Migration and Invasion of Prostate Cancer Cells by Downregulating MMP2

American Journal of Men's Health, 2019
KLF2, a member of the Kruppel-like factor (KLF) family, is thought to be a tumor suppressor in many kinds of malignant tumors. Its functions in prostate cancer (PCa) are unknown.

The shear stress-induced transcription factor KLF2 affects dynamics and angiopoietin-2 content of Weibel-Palade bodies. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: The shear-stress induced transcription factor KLF2 has been shown to induce an atheroprotective phenotype in endothelial cells (EC) that are exposed to prolonged laminar shear.

KLF2 Is a Novel Transcriptional Regulator of Endothelial Proinflammatory Activation [PDF]

The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2004
The vascular endothelium is a critical regulator of vascular function. Diverse stimuli such as proinflammatory cytokines and hemodynamic forces modulate endothelial phenotype and thereby impact on the development of vascular disease states. Therefore, identification of the regulatory factors that mediate the effects of these stimuli on endothelial ...

Suberanilohydroxamic Acid as a Pharmacological Kruppel‐Like Factor 2 Activator That Represses Vascular Inflammation and Atherosclerosis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundKruppel‐like factor 2 (KLF2) is an important zinc‐finger transcription factor that maintains endothelial homeostasis by its anti‐inflammatory, ‐thrombotic, ‐oxidative, and ‐proliferative effects in endothelial cells.
