Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
16905672 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
18083106 These experiments suggest that regulatory changes in Kitlg contribute to natural variation in vertebrate pigmentation, and that similar genetic mechanisms may underlie rapid evolutionary change in fish and humans.
17855052 Early myeloid cells expressing GNNK+ or GNNK-c-KIT show different responses to stem cell factor.
17556598 Distinct roles for bone morphogenetic protein 4, vascular endothelial growth factor, stem cell factor, and fibroblast growth factor 2 in hematopoiesis.
17687495 SCF can be introduced to rescue cells from the damage caused by certain antineoplastic agents.
17410437 SCF-enhanced proliferation and invasion of KIT-positive colorectal cancer cells is achieved mainly through the PI3K/Akt pathway.
12297464 SCF mRNA is present in K562, HL-60 and CML cells in blast phase
16780589 SCF and Kit are expressed in bronchial biopsies from lung transplant recipients irrespective of the clinical status of the graft; role for these factors in tissue repair following lung transplantation is hypothesised
16709604 stem cell factor and clusterin may have roles in azoospermia
15576295 The SCF is a member of a group of glycoproteins called hematopoietic cytokines (HCs).
