Abstract

Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is an evolutionarily conserved zinc finger-containing transcription factor. In the current study, RAW264.7 murine macrophages were treated with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to determine the expression of KLF4. A full-length cDNA or antisense oligonucleotides of KLF4 was transfected into RAW264.7 macrophages, and the expression and release of IL-10 were analyzed by RT-PCR and ELISA. The transcription and DNA binding activities of KLF4 to the IL-10 promoter were detected by the luciferase reporter and electrophoretic mobility shift assays. The results showed that treatment of RAW264.7 macrophages with LPS resulted in a dose- and time-dependent increase in KLF4 protein levels; KLF4 overexpression increased the expression of IL-10, while KLF4 inhibition decreased the expression of IL-10. The overexpression of KLF4 promoted the transcription and DNA binding activities of KLF4 to the IL-10 promoter. These results indicate that KLF4 plays an important role in regulating the expression of IL-10.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
