SOX2 in development and cancer biology

open access: yesSeminars in Cancer Biology, 2020
The transcription factor SOX2 is essential for embryonic development and plays a crucial role in maintaining the stemness of embryonic cells and various adult stem cell populations. On the other hand, dysregulation of SOX2 expression is associated with a multitude of cancer types and it has been shown that SOX2 positively affects cancer cell traits ...

Timosaponin Inhibit Proliferation and Stem Cell Formation of Lung Cancer Through Regulating Hedgehog Signaling-mediated SOX2

open access: yesZhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2020
Objective To explore the effects of Timosaponin (TMS) on lung cancer and cancer stem cell (CSC) and its underlying mechanism. Methods MTS, Hoechst 33342 staining, flow cytometry, cell migration and plate cloning experiments were used to detect the effect

Cellular response to spinal cord injury in regenerative and non-regenerative stages in Xenopus laevis

open access: yesNeural Development, 2021
Background The efficient regenerative abilities at larvae stages followed by a non-regenerative response after metamorphosis in froglets makes Xenopus an ideal model organism to understand the cellular responses leading to spinal cord regeneration ...

Ameloblastomas Exhibit Stem Cell Potential, Possess Neurotrophic Properties, and Establish Connections with Trigeminal Neurons

open access: yesCells, 2020
Ameloblastomas are locally invasive and aggressive odontogenic tumors treated via surgical resection, which results in facial deformity and significant morbidity.

Sox2 in the differentiation of cochlear progenitor cells [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractHMG domain transcription factor, Sox2, is a critical gene for the development of cochlear hair cells, the receptor cells for hearing, but this has been ascribed to expansion of the progenitors that become hair cells. Here, we show that Sox2 activated Atoh1, a transcription factor important for hair cell differentiation, through an interaction ...

SOX2 as a New Regulator of HPV16 Transcription [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Persistent infections with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) constitute the main risk factor for cervical cancer development. HPV16 is the most frequent type associated to squamous cell carcinomas (SCC), followed by HPV18. The long control region (LCR) in the HPV genome contains the replication origin and sequences recognized by cellular ...

Sox2 modulation increases naïve pluripotency plasticity [PDF]

open access: yesiScience, 2020
AbstractInduced pluripotency provides a tool to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the establishment, maintenance and differentiation of naïve pluripotent stem cells (nPSCs). Here, we report that self-renewal of nPSCs requires minimal Sox2 expression (Sox2-low).

A Role for Sox2 in the Adult Cerebellum

open access: yesJournal of Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2018
The cerebellum, a derivative of the hindbrain, plays a crucial role in balance and posture as well as in higher cognitive and locomotive processes. Cerebellar development is initiated during the segmental phase of hindbrain formation. Here, we describe the phenotype, of a single surviving adult conditional mouse mutant mouse, in which Sox2 function is ...

The prognostic value of whole blood SOX2, NANOG and OCT4 mRNA expression in advanced small-cell lung cancer

open access: yesRadiology and Oncology, 2016
The data on expression and clinical impact of cancer stem cell markers SOX2, NANOG and OCT4 in lung cancer is still lacking. The aim of our study was to compare SOX2, NANOG and OCT4 mRNA expression levels in whole blood between advanced small-cell lung ...

Uncovering the Role of Sox2 in Oligodendroglia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2018
In the CNS, oligodendrocytes are responsible for the formation of myelin. To build these insulating sheaths surrounding axons, cells of the oligodendrocyte lineage must go through an intricate and temporally matched sequence of proliferation, migration, differentiation, and myelination ...
