Core Tip

Core Tip: This review article mainly focuses on stem cell self-renewal controlled by a sex chromosomal zinc-finger transcriptional factor, zinc finger protein X-linked (ZFX). We begin the review with the most recent paper reporting the autosomal gene regulation by ZFX, then we would like to shed light on missing links between ZFX and self-renewal signaling. Based on a line of evidence from very recent studies, it appears that the ZFX-canonical Wnt signaling (linked to c-Myc) emerged as one key pathway. Although ZFX plays an important role in stem cell self-renewal, it may be certain stem/progenitor cell-specific, and further studies will be necessary.
