Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) is a member of the sample Kruppel transcription factor protein family, is an evolutionary conservative contain zinc finger transcription factors, involved in regulating many cellular processes, such as cell growth, proliferation, differentiation and invasion, KLF4 expression in a variety of tissues and cells in the body, has widely in many physiological and pathological conditions. Many studies have shown that KLF4 is involved in neurobiological processes such as neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis and axon regeneration, and is closely related to a variety of nervous system diseases such as epilepsy, stroke, and Alzheimer’s disease. Now KLF4 in its role in the development of nervous system diseases were reviewed, help to understand the pathogenesis of the disease and clinical treatment for diseases of the nervous system to provide potential targets.
