SOX2-Sensing: Insights into the Role of SOX2 in the Generation of Sensory Cell Types in Vertebrates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
The SOX2 transcription factor is a key regulator of nervous system development, and its mutation in humans leads to a rare disease characterized by severe eye defects, cognitive defects, hearing defects, abnormalities of the CNS and motor control problems.

Functional characterization of SOX2 as an anticancer target [PDF]

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2020
AbstractSOX2 is a well-characterized pluripotent factor that is essential for stem cell self-renewal, reprogramming, and homeostasis. The cellular levels of SOX2 are precisely regulated by a complicated network at the levels of transcription, post-transcription, and post-translation.

The absence of SOX2 in the anterior foregut alters the esophagus into trachea and bronchi in both epithelial and mesenchymal components

open access: yesBiology Open, 2020
In the anterior foregut (AFG) of mouse embryos, the transcription factor SOX2 is expressed in the epithelia of the esophagus and proximal branches of respiratory organs comprising the trachea and bronchi, whereas NKX2.1 is expressed only in the epithelia

LncRNA SOX2‐OT regulates AKT/ERK and SOX2/GLI‐1 expression, hinders therapy, and worsens clinical prognosis in malignant lung diseases

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2021
The involvement of LncRNA SOX2‐overlapping transcript (SOX2‐OT), SOX2, and GLI‐1 transcription factors in cancer has been well documented. Nonetheless, it is still unknown whether co‐expressed SOX2‐OT/SOX2 or SOX2‐OT/SOX2/GLI‐1 axes are epigenetically ...

Sox2 Uses Multiple Domains to Associate with Proteins Present in Sox2-Protein Complexes

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Master regulators, such as Sox2, Oct4 and Nanog, control complex gene networks necessary for the self-renewal and pluripotency of embryonic stem cells (ESC). These master regulators associate with co-activators and co-repressors to precisely control their gene targets. Recent studies using proteomic analysis have identified a large, diverse group of co-

SOX2 is required for inner ear neurogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractNeurons of the cochleovestibular ganglion (CVG) transmit hearing and balance information to the brain. During development, a select population of early otic progenitors express NEUROG1, delaminate from the otocyst, and coalesce to form the neurons that innervate all inner ear sensory regions.

SOX2 protein biochemistry in stemness, reprogramming, and cancer: the PI3K/AKT/SOX2 axis and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2019
Research of the past view years expanded our understanding of the various physiological functions the cell-fate determining transcription factor SOX2 exerts in ontogenesis, reprogramming, and cancer. However, while scientific reports featuring novel and exciting aspects of SOX2-driven biology are published in near weekly routine, investigations in the ...

Cervical cancer cells with positive Sox2 expression exhibit the properties of cancer stem cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Although Sox2 expression has been found in several types of cancer, it has not yet been used to identify or isolate CSCs in somatic carcinoma.

SOX2 and SOX2-MYC Reprogramming Process of Fibroblasts to the Neural Stem Cells Compromised by Senescence

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
Tumorigenic potential of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) infiltrating population of induced neural stem cells (iNSCs) generated from iPSCs may limit their medical applications. To overcome such a difficulty, direct reprogramming of adult somatic cells into iNSCs was proposed.
