Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for CDX1(NM_001804.2) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene is a member of the caudal-related homeobox transcription factor gene family. The encoded DNA-binding protein regulates intestine-specific gene expression and enterocyte differentiation. It has been shown to induce expression of the intestinal alkaline phosphatase gene, and inhibit beta-catenin/T-cell factor transcriptional activity. [provided by RefSeq].
Gene References into function
- Increased CDX1 mRNA expression is associated with chronic atrophic gastritis
- CDX1 is downregulated after promoter methylation in colorectal tumor cell lines
- these data show that Cdx1 exhibits a complex pattern during colorectal cancer progression, a high level of expression in polyps, and in one-third of the specimens, suggest that this gene may be a factor in the process toward malignant transformation
- absence of CDX1 mRNA expression in 7 of 37 CRC cell lines and shown that all 7 cell lines have a methylated CDX1 promoter
- Upstream sequences contain regulatory elements directing transgene expression specifically to intestinal epithelium. Two active chromatin regions in CDX1 gene may function as potential intestine-specific enhancers.
- Cdx1 and Cdx2 inhibit colon cancer cell proliferation by blocking beta-catenin/TCF transcriptional activity
- Cdx1 activates the IAP gene via a novel cis element, whereas Cdx2 inhibits the Cdx1 effects
- Demethylation of the CDX1 promoter may be the key to the induction and maintenance of its expression and so of the Barrett's metaplasia phenotype.
- changes in CDX2 and CDX1 expression determined by methyl group deprivation may constitute one of the mechanisms sustaining the protective role attributed to folate in colon cancer
- Cdx1 is not an oncogene in normal intestinal epithelium.
- The ability of Cdx1 and c-myc to initiate the earliest stages of transdifferentiation of esophageal keratinocytes toward a cell fate characteristic of Barrett's esophagus.
- CDX1 enhanced the expression of PPARgamma gene, a master transcriptional regulator of intestinal differentiation, at the transcriptional level, via functional interaction with CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPalpha).
- KRT20 is directly regulated by CDX1, suggesting a role for CDX1 in maintaining differentiation in intestinal epithelial cells
