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...
Ghrelin, an endogenous ligand of the GH (growth hormone) secretagogue receptor, influences many metabolic processes including GH secretion, food intake, energy balance, insulin secretion and adipogenesis. Although ghrelin exhibits a variety of biological functions, the mechanism by which ghrelin expression is regulated is unknown. Ghrelin is expressed in the gastrointestinal tract, predominantl...
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF) is unique by inducing epithelial cell scattering, a cellular event pivotal to HGF-mediated invasive-growth response essential for embryonic development and metastasis. Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is a multifunctional zinc-finger transcription factor involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and self-renewal. We herein present the first eviden...
Mutations in the nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) gene are the most frequent genetic alteration in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we showed that enforced expression of NPM1 mutation type A (NPM1-mA) inhibits myeloid differentiation of leukemia cells, whereas knockdown of NPM1-mA has the opposite effect. Our analyses of normal karyotype AML samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset revealed...
Ductal pancreatic carcinoma (DPC) is a deadly disease with an incidence of 9 cases in 100,000 people per year and a mortality rate close to 100%. Allelic losses in the long arm of chromosome 9 are commonly encountered in many human malignancies but no data are yet available about DPC. We screened 40 laser-microdissected DPC samples and 6 pre-invasive lesions for 9 microsatellite mapping markers...
Commentary on: CDX2-driven myeloid leukemogenesis involves KLF4 repression and deregulated PPAR gamma signaling Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the most common acute leukemia in adults, is characterized by enormous genetic and biological heterogeneity. As a consequence, the identification of unifying pathogenetic mechanisms and common targets for therapy has been next to impossible. We and others...
Regulation of endothelial cell biology by the Notch signaling pathway (Notch) is essential to vascular development, homeostasis, and sprouting angiogenesis. While Notch determines cellfate and differentiation in a wide variety of cells, the molecular basis of upstream regulation of Notch remains poorly understood. Our group and others have implicated the Krüppel-like factor family of transcript...
Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is a transcription factor involved in many cellular and developmental processes such as terminal differentiation of cells and carcinogenesis. Mice lacking KLF4 die post-natally due to skin barrier deficiencies and exhibit several additional cellular defects. The adult rodent testis expresses high levels of Klf4 mRNA. Using in situ hybridization, we previously locali...
RAW264.7 macrophages and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were treated with LPS to determine the expression of KLF4 and release of IL-1β. A full-length cDNA or short interference RNA of KLF4 was transfected into RAW264.7 macrophages; the expression and release of IL-1β were analyzed. The transcription and DNA binding activities of KLF4 to the IL-1β promoter were detected further. The re...
Somatic cells can be reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with the introduction of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. Among these four factors, Oct4 is critical in inducing pluripotency because no transcription factor can substitute for Oct4, whereas Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc can be replaced by other factors. Here we show that the orphan nuclear receptor Nr5a2 (also known as Lrh-1) can ...
