KLF5 is involved in regulation of IFITM1, 2, and 3 genes during H5N1 virus infection in A549 cells.

In conclusion, we revealed KLF5 is involved in transcription of IFITM1, 2, and 3 thus making it a potential therapeutic activator in the future to treat viral infections through promoting the innate immune response. PMID: 28040064 [PubMed - in process]
