Zfx: At the Crossroads of Survival and Self-Renewal
As the molecular mechanisms that govern stem cell fate are beginning to be unraveled, Galan-Caridad et al. (2007) report in this issue of Cell a common role for the transcription factor Zfx in the self-renewal/maintenance of both embryonic stem cells and hematopoietic stem cells. Their work suggests that a regulator of self-renewal can be shared between two different cell types.
متن کاملZFX Controls the Self-Renewal of Human Embryonic Stem Cells
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offer great promise in regenerative medicine and disease modeling due to their unlimited self-renewal and broad differentiation capacity. There is evidence that the growth properties and critical signaling pathways differ between murine and human ESCs; therefore, it is essential to perform functional studies to test the puta...
متن کاملThe Transcription Factor PU.1 Regulates γδ T Cell Homeostasis
BACKGROUND T cell development results in the generation of both mature αβ and γδ T cells. While αβ T cells predominate in secondary lymphoid organs, γδ T cells are more abundant in mucosal tissues. PU.1, an Ets family transcription factor, also identified as the spleen focus forming virus proviral integration site-1 (Sfpi1) is essential for early stages of T cell development, but is down regula...
متن کاملMitochondrial activity regulates T cell memory, self renewal and anti tumor function in CD8+ T cells
The ability of tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells to eradicate tumors following adoptive transfer of autologous tumorinfiltrating lymphocytes correlates with their capacity to proliferate and persist for long periods of time. These qualities are found predominantly in naive and less differentiated memory cells including memory stem cells (TSCM) and central memory cells (TCM), but the metabolic control...
متن کاملTranscription factor Gfi1 regulates self-renewal and engraftment of hematopoietic stem cells.
The generation of all blood cells depends on the ability of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for self-renewal and multilineage differentiation. We show here that the transcription factor Gfi1 is expressed in HSCs and in more mature cells such as common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs) and granulo/monocytic progenitors, but is absent in common myeloid progenitors and megakaryocyte/erythroid progenitor...
