Description
We have identified the transcription factor forkhead box protein F2 (Foxf2) to be upregulated in its expression during the EMT process and studied its functional contribution to EMT by siRNA-mediated knockdown in NMuMG cells treated for 4 days with TGFbeta followed by mRNA-sequencing. Our analysis revealed a dual role of Foxf2 during TGFbeta-induced EMT in promoting apoptosis while inducing cell junction breakdown and migration. Overall design: mRNA sequencing of NMuMG/E9 cells transfected with control siRNA or Foxf2 specific siRNA and treated with TGFbeta for 4 days
