An early Sox2-dependent gene expression programme required for hippocampal dentate gyrus development [PDF]
The hippocampus is a brain area central for cognition. Mutations in the human SOX2 transcription factor cause neurodevelopmental defects, leading to intellectual disability and seizures, together with hippocampal dysplasia. We generated an allelic series

High SOX2 expression as an indicator of the potential involvement of cancer stem cells in the development of cervical cancer among females with HPV infection [PDF]
Objective: Cervical cancer ranks fourth for both incidence and mortality among females. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cervical cancer.

Comparative characteristic of lung cancer stem-like cells generated in vitro under different culture conditions [PDF]
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play an important role in resistance to cancer treatment and recurrence developing. The aim of this study was to obtain cell culture of MOR line non-small cell lung cancer cells enriched in CSCs and to investigate its functional ...

A predicted two to tango interaction between MUC1 and SOX2: a unique opportunity to target cancer stem cells [PDF]
Objective: Cancer stem cell (CSC) genes are emerging as cancer therapeutic targets. MUC1 is a cell surface-associated glycoprotein that is aberrantly over‐expressed in >60% of human cancers including breast cancer.

SOX2 inhibits LLGL2 polarity protein in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma via miRNA-142-3p
Elevated SOX2 protein levels correspond to the poor prognosis of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Poor prognosis is closely correlated with the loss or disruption of cellular polarity; however, the relationships between SOX2 ...
