Characteristic overexpression of the forkhead box transcription factor Foxf1 in Patched-associated tumors.
Patients with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome carry germline mutations in the tumor suppressor gene Patched 1 (PTCH1) and are predisposed to develop basal cell carcinoma (BCC), medulloblastoma (MB), and rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). These tumors are also present in the murine model for Ptch1 deficiency, the Ptch1neo67/+ mouse. Previous studies, including those from our laboratory, have shown tha...
متن کاملForkhead box F1 regulates tumor-promoting properties of cancer-associated fibroblasts in lung cancer.
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) attract increasing attention as potential cancer drug targets due to their ability to stimulate, for example, tumor growth, invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis. However, the molecular mechanisms causing the tumor-promoting properties of CAFs remain poorly understood. Forkhead box F1 (FoxF1) is a mesenchymal target of hedgehog signaling, known to regulate m...
متن کاملWild-type levels of the mouse Forkhead Box f1 gene are essential for lung repair.
The Forkhead Box (Fox) family of transcription factors plays important roles in regulating expression of genes involved in cellular proliferation and differentiation. In a previous study, we showed that newborn foxf1(+/-) mice with diminished Foxf1 levels exhibited abnormal formation of pulmonary alveoli and capillaries and died postnatally. Interestingly, surviving newborn foxf1(+/-) mice exhi...
متن کاملHaploinsufficiency of the mouse Forkhead Box f1 gene causes defects in gall bladder development.
The forkhead box f1 (Foxf1) transcription factor is expressed in the visceral (splanchnic) mesoderm, which is involved in mesenchymal-epithelial signaling required for development of organs derived from foregut endoderm such as lung, liver, gall bladder, and pancreas. Our previous studies demonstrated that haploinsufficiency of the Foxf1 gene caused pulmonary abnormalities with perinatal lethal...
متن کاملForkhead box O-class 1 and Forkhead box G1 as Prognostic Markers for Bladder Cancer
Forkhead box O-class 1 (FOXO1) is a key regulator of glucose homeostasis, cell-cycle progression, and apoptosis. Its functions are modulated by forkhead box G1 (FOXG1), which acts as a transcriptional repressor with oncogenic potential. Real-time PCR and immunohistochemical staining were performed in 174 primary bladder cancer specimens and 21 normal bladder mucosae to evaluate these genes. FOX...
