Occurrence and Significance of the Nuclear Transcription Factor Krüppel-Like Factor 4 (KLF4) in the Vessel Wall

open access: yesActa Medica, 2009
Practically all mammalian cells including human can switch, according to micro- or macroenvironmental conditions, from states of cellular quiescence to inflammatory activation and vice versa.

Krüppel like factor 4 promoter undergoes active demethylation during monocyte/macrophage differentiation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The role of different lineage specific transcription factors in directing hematopoietic cell fate towards myeloid lineage is well established but the status of epigenetic modifications has not been defined during this important developmental process.

Bicoid gradient formation and function in the Drosophila pre-syncytial blastoderm

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Bicoid (Bcd) protein distributes in a concentration gradient that organizes the anterior/posterior axis of the Drosophila embryo. It has been understood that bcd RNA is sequestered at the anterior pole during oogenesis, is not translated until ...

The functions and prognostic value of Krüppel‐like factors in breast cancer

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2022
Background Krüppel‐like factors (KLFs) are zinc finger proteins which participate in transcriptional gene regulation. Although increasing evidence indicate that KLFs are involved in carcinogenesis and progression, its clinical significance and biological

Mid-embryo patterning and precision in Drosophila segmentation: Krüppel dual regulation of hunchback. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In early development, genes are expressed in spatial patterns which later define cellular identities and tissue locations. The mechanisms of such pattern formation have been studied extensively in early Drosophila (fruit fly) embryos.

TRIM56 Aggravates Cerebral Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury via Inhibiting KLF4‐Activated Ferroptosis Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM56 exacerbates neuronal ferroptosis and brain damage by mediating K48‐linked ubiquitination and degradation of KLF4, leading to suppression of the xCT/GSH/GPX4 axis. Targeting TRIM56 alleviates cerebral ischemia‐reperfusion injury in vivo and in vitro, highlighting its therapeutic potential.

Eosinophil function in adipose tissue is regulated by Krüppel-like factor 3 (KLF3)

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Immune cells are important regulators of adipose tissue function, including adaptive thermogenesis. Here the authors show that mice with Krüppel-like factor 3 (KLF3) deficiency in bone marrow-derived cells have increased adipose tissue beiging which may ...

Krüppel‐Like Factors Orchestrate Endothelial Gene Expression Through Redundant and Non‐Redundant Enhancer Networks

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Proper function of endothelial cells is critical for vascular integrity and organismal survival. Studies over the past 2 decades have identified 2 members of the KLF (Krüppel‐like factor) family of proteins, KLF2 and KLF4, as nodal regulators ...

Activating the Osteoblastic USP26 Pathway Alleviates Multi‐Organ Fibrosis by Decreasing Insulin Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The loss of Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 26 (USP26) in osteoblasts results in decreased bone formation, as well as multi‐organ fibrosis associated with insulin resistance (IR). Mechanistically, the absence of USP26 reduces glycolysis and lactate accumulation, leading to decreased histone H3 lysine 18 lactylation (H3K18LA) in the promoter region of KH ...
