    The strategy of inducing fetal hemoglobin (HbF) has been extensively studied because it can improve the clinical complications of β-hemoglobinopathy
    .


    It is of great significance to determine the genetic modification factors that regulate γ-globulin


    TEAD4 is a known transcription factor that regulates tumorigenesis and hematopoiesis.
    Its role in HbF regulation has not yet been confirmed
    .


    A foreign research team conducted a series of functional verifications, showing that TEAD4 regulates the inhibition of fetal hemoglobin by directly binding to the γ-globulin gene promoter


    It shows that TEAD4 regulates the suppression of fetal hemoglobin by directly binding to the γ-globulin gene promoter

    In summary, these results indicate that TEAD4 can act as a transcription inhibitor of γ-globulin gene by directly binding its promoter
    .


    The results of the study indicate the new role of TEAD4 in HbF regulation, which may benefit patients with β-hemoglobinopathy and provide a potential target for the treatment of β-hemoglobinopathy


    TEAD4 can act as a transcription inhibitor of γ-globulin gene by directly binding its promoter
