Identification of a KLF5-dependent program and drug development for skeletal muscle atrophy
23 Aug 2021
Abstract excerpt
Significance Skeletal muscle atrophy occurs as a result of a variety of conditions including aging, disuse, and cachexia. In this study, we show that the transcription factor KLF5 is transiently up-regulated by metabolic and disuse stimulations and plays a pivotal role in the onset of muscle atrophy in vitro and in vivo. KLF5 physically interacts with Foxo1, and together, they regulate the transcription of Fbxo32...
