Background Information
MAFB (MAF BZIP Transcription Factor B), also known as V-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog B, is a widely expressed basic leucine zipper transcription factor belonging to the Maf family. MAFB expression is significantly elevated in response to a broad range of metabolic and immunological stimuli that promote macrophage M2 polarization, cholesterol efflux, or both, whereas it is strongly down-regulated in response to various pro-inflammatory pathogenic triggers(PMID: 28790455). MAFB is highly expressed in tumor tissues and required for proliferation and tumorigenicity of osteosarcoma cells(PMID: 32234710) and is a marker of tumor-associated macrophages in both mouse and human(PMID: 31679694).
