Genome-wide analysis of Pax8 binding provides new insights into thyroid functions
Background The transcription factor Pax8 is essential for the differentiation of thyroid cells. However, there are few data on genes transcriptionally regulated by Pax8 other than thyroid-related genes.

The nephrogenic potential of the transcription factors osr1, osr2, hnf1b, lhx1 and pax8 assessed in Xenopus animal caps [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundThe three distinct types of kidneys, pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros, develop consecutively in vertebrates. The earliest form of embryonic kidney, the pronephros, is derived from intermediate mesoderm and the first expressed genes localized in the pronephros anlage are the transcription factors osr1, osr2, hnf1b, lhx1 and pax8,

IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL EXPRESSIONS OF PAX8 IN OVARIAN SURFACE EPITHELIAL TUMORS
Background: PAX8 is a nuclear transcription factor with limited expression in normal and neoplastic tissues, it has the potential to induce tumorigenesis and is expressed in a tissue during neoplastic transformation.

Activating PAX gene family paralogs to complement PAX5 leukemia driver mutations. [PDF]
PAX5, one of nine members of the mammalian paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors, plays an important role in B cell development. Approximately one-third of individuals with pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) acquire heterozygous ...

Role of Pax8 transcriptional factor in the differentiated thyroid [PDF]
In Pax8-/- mice the thyroid anlage disappears around E11.5. At birth the gland appears as a rudimentary structure composed only of C cells while thyroid follicular cells are undetectable. Thus, this model does not allow the study of Pax8 function in the postnatal thyroid. To address the role of Pax8 in the differentiated thyroid, I established novel

Humans and mice have cyclical regeneration of the endometrial epithelium. It is expected that such regeneration is ensured by tissue stem cells, but their location and hierarchy remain debatable.

The Functional Interaction between the Paired Domain Transcription Factor Pax8 and Smad3 Is Involved in Transforming Growth Factor-β Repression of the Sodium/Iodide Symporter Gene [PDF]
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a secreted protein that regulates proliferation, differentiation, and death in various cell types, including thyroid cells, although few details are known about its mechanisms of action in this cell type.

DNA Methylation and Expression Profiles of Whole Blood in Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common age-related neurodegenerative disease. It is presently only accurately diagnosed at an advanced stage by a series of motor deficits, which are predated by a litany of non-motor symptoms manifesting over ...
