    β-catenin and γ-catenin are dispensable for T lymphocytes and AML leukemic stem cells

    Xin Zhao, Peng Shao ... Hai-Hui Xue
    The generation and characterization of true β-catenin null mutant mice conclusively demonstrate that β-catenin is dispensable for T lymphocytes and leukemia stem cells, providing clarifications on a long-standing controversy.

    A β-catenin-driven switch in TCF/LEF transcription factor binding to DNA target sites promotes commitment of mammalian nephron progenitor cells

    Qiuyu Guo, Albert Kim ... Andrew P McMahon
    β-Catenin-mediated expansion of nephron progenitors is independent of direct β-catenin/chromatin engagement, while progenitor induction proceeds with a β-catenin-driven switch of repressive TCFL1/TCFL2 to activating TCF7/LEF1 factors on transcriptionally poised enhancers.

    LMO2 is essential to maintain the ability of progenitors to differentiate into T-cell lineage in mice

    Ken-ichi Hirano, Hiroyuki Hosokawa ... Katsuto Hozumi
    LMO2 plays an important role in the maintenance of T lymphocyte competence and survival of pre-thymic progenitors by regulating the expression of Bcl11a and Tcf7 genes.

    Developmentally regulated Tcf7l2 splice variants mediate transcriptional repressor functions during eye formation

    Rodrigo M Young, Kenneth B Ewan ... Stephen W Wilson
    The inclusion of a new alternatively spliced exon in Tcf7l2 can switch its function to repress transcription of Wnt target genes.

    The kinase PDK1 is critical for promoting T follicular helper cell differentiation

    Zhen Sun, Yingpeng Yao ... Shuyang Yu
    PDK1 serves as a critical role for intrinsically promoting T follicular helper cell differentiation and effector functions via controlling expression level of TCF1.

    Sox17 and β-catenin co-occupy Wnt-responsive enhancers to govern the endoderm gene regulatory network

    Shreyasi Mukherjee, Praneet Chaturvedi ... Aaron M Zorn
    Genomic analysis of Xenopus gastrula reveal that the transcription factor Sox17 interacts with the Wnt signaling effector ß-catenin on enhancers to regulate the transcriptional program underlying endoderm germ layer formation.

    Downregulation of Mirlet7 miRNA family promotes Tc17 differentiation and emphysema via de-repression of RORγt

    Phillip A Erice, Xinyan Huang ... Antony Rodriguez
    Mirlet7 functions as a molecular brake of CD8+IL17a+ T cells (Tc17) inflammation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease via direct regulation RAR-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt).

    Rescue of behavioral and electrophysiological phenotypes in a Pitt-Hopkins syndrome mouse model by genetic restoration of Tcf4 expression

    Hyojin Kim, Eric B Gao ... Benjamin D Philpot
    Normalizing Tcf4 expression during early postnatal development improves behavioral outcomes in Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PTHS) model mice, suggesting that genetic therapies are feasible in individuals with PTHS.

    The transcription factor Bach2 negatively regulates murine natural killer cell maturation and function

    Shasha Li, Michael D Bern ... Wayne M Yokoyama
    Deficiency of the transcriptional repressor, Bach2, results in more mature mouse natural killer cells.

    Discovery and functional assessment of a novel adipocyte population driven by intracellular Wnt/β-catenin signaling in mammals

    Zhi Liu, Tian Chen ... YiPing Chen
    A novel population of adipocytes that play essential roles in adaptive thermogenesis via cell autonomous and non-autonomous effects and regulate systemic glucose metabolism in mice.
