Kruppel-like factor 15 is a regulator of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.
Cardiac hypertrophy is a common response to injury and hemodynamic stress and an important harbinger of heart failure and death. Herein, we identify the Kruppel-like factor 15 (KLF15) as an inhibitor of cardiac hypertrophy. Myocardial expression of KLF15 is reduced in rodent models of hypertrophy and in biopsy samples from patients with pressure-overload induced by chronic valvular aortic steno...
متن کاملKruppel-like factor 15 is critical for vascular inflammation.
Activation of cells intrinsic to the vessel wall is central to the initiation and progression of vascular inflammation. As the dominant cellular constituent of the vessel wall, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and their functions are critical determinants of vascular disease. While factors that regulate VSMC proliferation and migration have been identified, the endogenous regulators of VSMC...

متن کاملKruppel-like factor 15 is required for the cardiac adaptive response to fasting
Cardiac metabolism is highly adaptive in response to changes in substrate availability, as occur during fasting. This metabolic flexibility is essential to the maintenance of contractile function and is under the control of a group of select transcriptional regulators, notably the nuclear receptor family of factors member PPARα. However, the diversity of physiologic and pathologic states throug...
متن کاملDeficiency of the Kruppel-like factor KLF4 correlates with increased cell proliferation and enhanced skin tumorigenesis.
Kruppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is a transcription factor that is highly expressed in differentiated epithelial cells including that of the skin. It is critical for specification or function of differentiated epithelial cells. Moreover, KLF4 functions either as a tumor suppressor or an oncogene depending on different cellular contexts. However, the role of KLF4 in skin tumorigenesis remains contro...
