Disease relevance of HOXA5

 

High impact information on HOXA5

  • Transient transfection of Hox/HOXA5 activated the p53 promoter [5].
  • We conclude that loss of expression of p53 in human breast cancer may be primarily due to lack of expression of HOXA5 [5].
  • The HOXA5 promoter region was methylated in 16 out of 20 p53-negative breast tumour specimens [5].
  • Additionally, we provide evidence that hDOT1L has an important role in the transformation process. hDOT1L contributes to CALM-AF10-mediated leukaemic transformation by preventing nuclear export of CALM-AF10 and by upregulating the Hoxa5 gene through H3K79 methylation [6].
  • Further, several small interfering RNAs which specifically silenced caspase 2 and caspase 8 expression significantly blocked HOXA5-induced apoptosis [7].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of HOXA5

  • Western blot analysis further confirmed that caspases 2 and 8 were activated after the induction of HOXA5 expression [7].
  • Promoter deletion, chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, and gel-shift assays were performed to show that HOXA5 can directly bind to one binding site on the pleiotrophin promoter [16].
  • These data strongly suggest that microarray analysis can successfully identify many potential direct downstream genes of HOXA5 [16].
  • In order to decipher downstream signaling pathways of HOXA5, we utilized oligonucleotide microarray analysis to identify genes that are differentially expressed in HOXA5-induced cells compared with uninduced cells [16].
  • Identification and linkage mapping of the genes for the putative homeodomain protein (hox1) and the putative pheromone receptor protein homologue (rcb1) in a bipolar basidiomycete, Pholiota nameko [17].
