Polyomavirus enhancer activator 3 (PEA3), an ETS transcription factor, has been documented to regulate the development and metastasis of human cancers. Nonetheless, a thorough analysis examining the relationship between the PEA3 subfamily members and tumour development, prognosis, and the tumour microenvironment (TME) across various cancer types has not yet been conducted. The expression profiles and prognostic significance of the PEA3 subfamily were evaluated using data from the GEO, TCGA, and PrognoScan databases, in conjunction with COX regression analyses and the Kaplan-Meier Plotter.

Sox17-Erg direct reprogramming is a potent tool for the in vitro and in vivo generation of arterial-like induced-endothelial cells from fibroblasts. In this study, we illustrate the pioneering roles of both Sox17 and Erg in the endothelial cell reprogramming process and demonstrate that emergent gene expression only occurs when both factors are co-expressed. Bioinformatic analyses and molecular validation reveal both Bach2 and Etv4 as integral mediators of Sox17-Erg reprogramming with different roles in lung and heart fibroblast reprogramming.

The conserved Runt-related (RUNX) transcription factor family are master regulators of developmental and regenerative processes. Runx1 and Runx2 are expressed in satellite cells (SCs) and in skeletal myotubes. Here, we examined the role of Runx1 in mouse satellite cells to determine the role of Runx1 during muscle differentiation.

The Angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) and ETS Variant Transcription Factor 4 (ETV4) are involved in the metabolic transition and carcinogenesis in the liver. However, the role of ETV4 in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is currently unknown. Our study reveals that ETV4 expression was upregulated in the diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and plays a critical role in the dysregulated lipid metabolism.

Solute carrier family 12 member 5 (SLC12A5) is an oncogene in numerous types of cancer, however its function in breast cancer (BC) remains elusive. ETS translocation variant 4 (ETV4) promotes BC. Therefore, the present study aimed to elucidate the role of SLC12A5 in ferroptosis and glucose metabolism in BC cells as well as to understand the underlying mechanism.
