The aims of the present studies were to : 1 ) determine the role of the SM alpha-actin TCE in vivo through mutagenesis studies in transgenic mice and 2 ) further characterize the possible role and mechanisms by which the TCE binding factor
GKLF/KLF4 induces repression of
SMC marker genes in various SMC model systems in vitro
Liu et al., J Biol Chem 2005
:
Moreover, previous studies have demonstrated that the
Kruppel-like transcription factor ( KLF) 4 potently
represses the expression of multiple
SMC genes ... The goals of the present studies were to determine the molecular mechanisms by which
KLF4 represses expression of
SMC genes and whether it contributes to PDGF-BB induced suppression of these genes ... Results demonstrated that
KLF4 markedly
repressed both myocardin induced activation of
SMC genes and expression of myocardin
