KLF 4 ( Kruppel - like factor 4 ( gut ) )
A full-length mouse cDNA clone encoding KLF4 was initially isolated from a NIH3T3 cDNA library by reduced stringency screening with a DNA probe containing the zinc finger region of an immediate early gene product, Zif268 or Egr1. A distinct feature of the KLF4 gene is the highly GC-rich nature of the sequence near its 5'-end. Thus, the G+C content of the 1000 nt 5'-flanking region is 67% and th...
متن کاملKLF 5 ( Kruppel - like factor 5 ( intestinal ) )
KLF5 is a transcription factor. Many KLF5 target genes, such as PDGFa, PPARg, NFkB, cyclinD1, KLF4, and TCR, have been identified in different cell models. KLF5 regulates cell proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, and differentiation. KLF5 is an important transcription factor for cardiovascular remodeling and tumor angiogenesis. KLF5 is essential for mouse embryo development. Additionally, KLF5...
متن کاملKruppel - like factor 4 ( KLF 4 ) and cancer literatures
Kruppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is a member of the KLF family of transcription factors and regulates proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and somatic cell reprogramming. KLF4 is also a tumor suppressor in certain cancers. KLF4 can be an indicator of stem-like capacity in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), etc. The KLF4 gene is conserved in chimpanzee, Rhesus monkey...
متن کاملEndothelial Kruppel-like factor 4 protects against atherothrombosis in mice.
The endothelium regulates vascular homeostasis, and endothelial dysfunction is a proximate event in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis. Stimulation of the endothelium with proinflammatory cytokines or exposure to hemodynamic-induced disturbed flow leads to a proadhesive and prothrombotic phenotype that promotes atherothrombosis. In contrast, exposure to arterial laminar flow induces a gene pr...
