Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - The FOXD4 gene is located on chromosome 17p13.2. - It is a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors, which are characterized by their ability to bind to specific DNA sequences and regulate gene expression. - The FOXD4 gene is expressed in a variety of cell types, including blood vessel endothelial cells, colon goblet cells, intestinal stem cells, transit amplifying cells, goblet cells, enterocytes, tuft cells, and cerebral cortex GABAergic interneurons. **Pathways and functions:** - FOXD4 is a key regulator of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process by which epithelial cells lose their epithelial characteristics and acquire mesenchymal characteristics. EMT is important for the development of various tissues, including the skin, lungs, and gut. - FOXD4 is also involved in the regulation of cell differentiation and survival. It is expressed in cells that are committed to becoming epithelial cells and is essential for the proper differentiation of these cells. - The expression of FOXD4 is also important for the maintenance of tissue integrity and the prevention of cancer. In cancer cells, FOXD4 is often overexpressed, which can lead to the development of tumors. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the FOXD4 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including colorectal cancer, lung cancer, and heart disease. - Targeting FOXD4 has been explored as a therapeutic strategy for cancer and other diseases that are characterized by epithelial-mesenchymal transition or impaired cell differentiation. - However, the development of FOXD4 inhibitors has also been challenging due to the fact that the protein is also expressed in normal cells.
