Disease relevance of Sox6

 

High impact information on Sox6

 

Biological context of Sox6

 

Anatomical context of Sox6

 

Associations of Sox6 with chemical compounds

  • Sox6 overexpression causes cellular aggregation and the neuronal differentiation of P19 embryonic carcinoma cells in the absence of retinoic acid [11].
 

Regulatory relationships of Sox6

  • Expression profile analysis of key transcription factors involved in chondrogenesis showed that overexpression of AP-2alpha maintained the expression of Sox9 but suppressed the expression of SoxS and Sox6 [12].
  • Sox6 thus enhances erythroid cell development at multiple levels and thereby ensures adequate production and quality of red blood cells [13].
