Krüppel-like transcription factors KLF1 and KLF2 have unique and coordinate roles in regulating embryonic erythroid precursor maturation [PDF]
The Krüppel-like transcription factors KLF1 and KLF2 are essential for embryonic erythropoiesis. They can partially compensate for each other during mouse development, and coordinately regulate numerous erythroid genes, including the β-like globins ...

Krüppel-like transcription factors and control of pluripotency [PDF]
Recent papers have demonstrated a role for Krüppel-like transcription factors 2, 4 and 5 in the control of mouse embryonic stem cell pluripotency. However, it is not clear whether each factor has a unique role or whether they are functionally redundant ...

Activation and Repression of Interleukin-12 p40 Transcription by Erythroid Kruppel-like Factor in Macrophages [PDF]
Transcription of interleukin (IL)-12 p40 in myeloid cells is attributed to the recruitment of multiple activated transcription factors such as nuclear factor kappaB (NFkappaB), CCAAT enhancer-binding protein beta, ets-2, PU.1, and so forth. We now provide the first description of the human erythroid Kruppel-like factor (EKLF) in human primary ...

Kruppel-Like Factor 2 Is a Transcriptional Regulator of Chronic and Acute Inflammation [PDF]
Although myeloid cell activation is requisite for an optimal innate immune response, this process must be tightly controlled to prevent collateral host tissue damage. Kruppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) is a potent regulator of myeloid cell proinflammatory activation.

The thromboprotective effect of bortezomib is dependent on the transcription factor Kruppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) [PDF]
Key Points Transcription factor KLF2 is a critical determinant of vascular thrombosis. The antithrombotic effect noted with bortezomib is KLF2 dependent.

Cell-specific Transcription of Leukotriene C4Synthase Involves a Kruppel-like Transcription Factor and Sp1 [PDF]
Leukotriene C(4) synthase (LTC(4)S) is responsible for the biosynthesis of cysteinyl leukotrienes that participate in allergic and asthmatic inflammation. We analyzed 2.1 kilobases of the 5'-flanking region of the human LTC(4)S gene, which contains three DNase I hypersensitivity sites, for its transcriptional activity when fused to a promoterless and ...

Transcriptional repression of Kruppel like factor‐2 by the adaptor protein p66shc
ABSTRACT The adaptor protein p66shc promotes cellular oxidative stress and apoptosis. Here, we demonstrate a novel mechanistic relationship between p66shc and the kruppel like factor‐2 (KLF2) transcription factor and show that this relationship has biological relevance to p66shc‐regulated cellular oxidant level ...

Cutting Edge: The Transcription Factor Kruppel-Like Factor 4 Regulates the Differentiation of Th17 Cells Independently of RORγt [PDF]
Abstract Th17 cells play a significant role in inflammatory and autoimmune responses. Although a number of molecular pathways that contribute to the lineage differentiation of T cells have been discovered, the mechanisms by which lineage commitment occurs are not fully understood.

GATA Binding Protein 3 Is a Direct Target of Kruppel-Like Transcription Factor 7 and Inhibits Chicken Adipogenesis [PDF]
Kruppel-like transcription factor 7 (KLF7) is a negative regulator of adipogenesis, however, its precise mechanism is poorly understood. Our previous KLF7 ChIP-seq analysis showed that one of the KLF7 binding peaks was present upstream of GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3) in chicken preadipocytes.
