Family Delta-EF1/ZFH-1 C2H2-type zinc-finger family
Function
Acts as a transcriptional repressor. Inhibits interleukin-2 (IL-2) gene expression. Enhances or represses the promoter activity of the ATP1A1 gene depending on the quantity of cDNA and on the cell type. Represses E-cadherin promoter and induces an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by recruiting SMARCA4/BRG1. Represses BCL6 transcription in the presence of the corepressor CTBP1. Positively regulates neuronal differentiation. Represses RCOR1 transcription activation during neurogenesis. Represses transcription by binding to the E box (5'-CANNTG-3'). Promotes tumorigenicity by repressing stemness-inhibiting microRNAs.

In Vivo Model
The OS model of nude mice was constructed using the CDTX model. After transfection, the h143B cells were prepared into a single-cell suspension and subcutaneously injected into the left proximal tibia of 36 (3 mice per group) 4-weeks-old nude mice (1 x 107 cells per mouse).

Response regulation MiR-144-3p can induce the occurrence of ferroptosis by negatively regulating the expression of ZEB1, thereby inhibiting the proliferation, migration, and invasion of osteosarcoma (OS) cells. The overexpression of ZEB1 caused the lower expression level of ACSL4 and higher expression level of xCT and GPX4.

In Vivo Model
Xenografts for LOXIMVI sgEGFP (WT) and LOXIMVI sgGPX4 (KO) cells were established by injecting 10 million cells in a 1:1 PBS:Matrigel mixture containing 2.5 uM ferrostatin-1 into the flanks of athymic mice (NRC Nude, Taconic). Animals were dosed daily with 2 mg kg-1 ferrostatin-1 by intraperitoneal injections. Tumour volume was measured twice a week.

Response regulation The resulting dependency of ZEB1-high cells on lipid-peroxidase activity is most effectively exploited by direct inhibition of GPX4 in Fibrosarcoma.
