Review for Region: FOXF1 upstream regulatory region was set to GREEN
Added comment: FOXF1 is a transcription factor involved in maintaining endothelial barrier through activation of S1P/S1PR1 signalling for integrity of adherens junctions.

An approximately 60kb enhancer 270kb upstream of the FOXF1 gene has been identified with copy number changes in this region seen in over 10 affected individuals with biopsy confirmed alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins.
Interestingly a large number of the deletions identified were de novo on the maternal allele.

Deletion size ranged between 104kb to 2625kb, coordinates from this entry are from a minimal overlapping region.

The enhancer region has binding motifs for a number of transcription factors, as well as this there is a non coding RNA (LINC01081) within the region that is thought to play a role with regulation of FOXF1 transcription. Supportive functional studies with RNAi-mediated knock-down of LINC01081 in normal fetal lung fibroblasts showed that this lncRNA positively regulates FOXF1 transcript level.

Mendeliome v0.6119 FOXF1 Zornitza Stark changed review comment from: Congenital alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV) is characterized histologically by failure of formation and ingrowth of alveolar capillaries that then do not make contact with alveolar epithelium, medial muscular thickening of small pulmonary arterioles with muscularization of the intraacinar arterioles, thickened alveolar walls, and anomalously situated pulmonary veins running alongside pulmonary arterioles and sharing the same adventitial sheath. Less common features include a reduced number of alveoli and a patchy distribution of the histopathologic changes. The disorder is associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the neonate and shows varying degrees of lability and severity. Affected infants present with respiratory distress resulting from pulmonary hypertension in the early postnatal period, and the disease is uniformly fatal within the newborn period. Additional features of ACDMPV include multiple congenital anomalies affecting the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal systems, as well as disruption of the normal right-left asymmetry of intrathoracic or intraabdominal organs.; to: Congenital alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV) is characterized histologically by failure of formation and ingrowth of alveolar capillaries that then do not make contact with alveolar epithelium, medial muscular thickening of small pulmonary arterioles with muscularization of the intraacinar arterioles, thickened alveolar walls, and anomalously situated pulmonary veins running alongside pulmonary arterioles and sharing the same adventitial sheath.
