Krüppel-like factors in cancer progression: three fingers on the steering wheel [PDF]

, 2013
Kruppel-like factors (KLFs) comprise a highly conserved family of zinc finger transcription factors, that are involved in a plethora of cellular processes, ranging from proliferation and apoptosis to differentiation, migration and pluripotency.

Kruppel-like factor 4 regulates neutrophil activation

Blood Advances, 2017
: Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in circulation and are key components of the innate immune response. Clinical and experimental studies support an important role for the neutrophils in a broad spectrum of acute and chronic ...

Krüppel-Like Factor 4 Is a Regulator of Proinflammatory Signaling in Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes through Increased IL-6 Expression

Mediators of Inflammation, 2016
Human fibroblast-like synoviocytes play a vital role in joint synovial inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Proinflammatory cytokines induce fibroblast-like synoviocyte activation and dysfunction.

Kruppel-like factor 4 inhibits non–small cell lung cancer cell growth and aggressiveness by stimulating transforming growth factor-β1-meidated ERK/JNK/NF-κB signaling pathways

Tumor Biology, 2017
Non–small cell lung cancer is one of the most common epithelial tumors that cause the most common cancer-related mortality due to invasive ability. Research has found that Kruppel-like factor 4, a zinc-finger transcription factor, plays a critical role ...

Possible role of Krüppel-like factor 5 in the remodeling of small airways and pulmonary vessels in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Small airway remodeling is an important cause of the airflow limitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A large population of patients with COPD also have pulmonary hypertension.

Role of Klf4 in the Regulation of Apoptosis and Cell Cycle in Rat Granulosa Cells during the Periovulatory Period [PDF]

, 2019
In the ovary, the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge suppresses the proliferation and induces the luteinization of preovulatory granulosa cells (GCs), which is crucial for the survival of terminally-differentiated GCs.

Expression profiling of migrated and invaded breast cancer cells predicts early metastatic relapse and reveals Krüppel-like factor 9 as a potential suppressor of invasive growth in breast cancer [PDF]

, 2013
Cell motility and invasion initiate metastasis. However, only a subpopulation of cancer cells within a tumor will ultimately become invasive. Due to this stochastic and transient nature, in an experimental setting, migrating and invading cells need to be
