FOXO4 is a member of the Forkhead box O (FOXO) family of transcription factors that play key roles in regulating numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, apoptosis, DNA repair, oxidative stress resistance, and cellular senescence.
-Under normal conditions, FOXO4 contributes to tumor suppression by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, thereby limiting malignant transformation.
-Its activity is often inhibited in various cancers, either through post-translational modifications (e.g., phosphorylation by oncogenic kinases such as AKT) or altered expression, which can contribute to cancer progression.
