Kruppel-like factors research
Kruppel-like factors research is a research topic within Molecular Biology. Science Explorer counts 13k research works in it since 1950. 19.7% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.
This cluster of papers explores the role of Krüppel-like factors and other transcription factors in regulating gene expression, cell growth, and differentiation. It specifically focuses on their involvement in cancer, endothelial activation, proinflammatory signaling, and the maintenance of stem cells. Additionally, it delves into their impact on smooth muscle differentiation and their potential as tumor suppressors.
