Region-specific Wnt signaling responses promote gastric polyp formation in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2023
Germline adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) mutation in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) promotes gastrointestinal polyposis, including the formation of frequent gastric fundic gland polyps (FGPs).

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Cilia, adenomatous polyposis coli and associated diseases [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2011
Cilium is a conservative cell organelle, found in many types of cell surfaces. Cilia are tail-like prominence protruding out of the cell surface, capable of locomotion and acting as the cell's signal transduction sensory organs with their complex structures and ingenious function.

Improving genetic diagnosis of hereditary tumor syndromes: From expanded gene panels to functional genomics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic tumor risk syndromes (genturis) contribute substantially to the overall cancer burden and provide opportunities for early detection, prevention, and individualized treatment. Yet, many affected individuals remain undiagnosed due to restrictive testing criteria and challenges in variant interpretation.

The adenomatous polyposis coli protein. [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Pathology, 1999
Mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene are associated with most colorectal cancers. The APC protein has been implicated in many aspects of tumour development. This article will discuss recent data suggesting that APC may have multiple functions in the cell.

Extracellular matrix stiffness and cell contractility control RNA localization to promote cell migration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) regulates the localization of some mRNAs at cellular protrusions but the underlying mechanisms and functional roles are not known. Here the authors show that APC-dependent RNAs are enriched in contractile protrusions, via

Clinical and genetic features of pediatric hereditary polyposis syndromes in Israel: A nationwide multicenter cohort

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Hereditary polyposis syndromes in children are rare, heterogeneous disorders associated with significant morbidity and long‐term risk of malignancy. Current data on their presentation, management, and outcomes in pediatric populations remain limited.

A Patient With Desmoid Tumors and Familial FAP Having Frame Shift Mutation of the APC Gene

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2017
Desmoids tumors, characterized by monoclonal proliferation of myofibroblasts, could occur in 5-10% of patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) as an extra-colonic manifestation of the disease.

Desmoid tumor mimicking cancer recurrence in a patient with colon cancer and Gardner syndrome: A case report

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports
Gardner syndrome, a subtype of familial adenomatous polyposis, features colorectal polyposis, osteomas and soft-tissue tumors with elevated colorectal carcinoma risk, and abdominal masses in these patients are easily misdiagnosed as malignant recurrence,

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to
