GFPT2 and myocardial infarction: A study by Tian et al. evidenced that Kruppel-like factor 5 (KLF5), a pro-apoptotic member of the Kruppel-like transcription factor family, induces cell and tissue damage in myocardial infarction (MI) through downregulation of miR-27a and the subsequent activation of GFPT2/TGF-β/Smad2/3 axis (Figure 2) [31].
