The transcription factors of the nuclear factor of activated T cell (NFAT) family play a crucial role in multiple aspects of T cell function. It has recently been reported that NFATs play an important role in the suppressive function of CD4+CD25+Foxp3 ...

Transcriptional regulation by calcium, calcineurin, and NFAT [PDF]
The NFAT family of transcription factors encompasses five proteins evolutionarily related to the Rel/NF B family (Chytil and Verdine 1996; Graef et al. 2001b). The primordial family member is NFAT5, the only NFATrelated protein represented in the Drosophila genome.

ERK inhibition and 3D spheroids increased NFAT transactivation.
HeyA8 cells plated at 50,000 cells in a 24 well plate for transfections. 500 ng of NFAT-Luc/Renilla mixture (40:1) were transfected per well and incubated overnight.

NFAT Gene Family in Inflammation and Cancer [PDF]
Calcineurin-NFAT signaling is critical for numerous aspects of vertebrate function during and after embryonic development. Initially discovered in T cells, the NFAT gene family, consisting of five members, regulates immune system, inflammatory response, angiogenesis, cardiac valve formation, myocardial development, axonal guidance, skeletal muscle ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

NFAT activation in PC12 cells with reduce PMCAs content.
PC12 cells were transfected with plasmids encoding firefly luciferase under NFAT-dependent promoter (pGL3-NFAT-luc) and reference plasmids with Renilla luciferase (pRL-SV40).

Summary: NFAT is a family of transcription factors whose activation is inhibited by calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs). In allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT), CNIs are employed to prevent and treat graft-versus-host disease (GvHD ...

Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

FOXP3 Controls Regulatory T Cell Function through Cooperation with NFAT
SummaryAntigen stimulation of immune cells activates the transcription factor NFAT, a key regulator of T cell activation and anergy. NFAT forms cooperative complexes with the AP-1 family of transcription factors and regulates T cell activation-associated
