Trabid patient mutations impede the axonal trafficking of adenomatous polyposis coli to disrupt neurite growth

open access: yeseLife, 2023
ZRANB1 (human Trabid) missense mutations have been identified in children diagnosed with a range of congenital disorders including reduced brain size, but how Trabid regulates neurodevelopment is not understood.

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.

Interactions and functions of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein at a glance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2013
Since its discovery as the major tumour suppressor in colorectal cancer, the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein has emerged as a multi-functional protein that directly or indirectly regulates the cellular processes that govern epithelial tissues ([McCartney and Nathke, 2008][1]).

A pan-cancer analysis on the carcinogenic effect of human adenomatous polyposis coli.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is the most commonly mutated gene in colon cancer and can cause familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Hypermethylation of the APC promoter can also promote the development of breast cancer, indicating that APC is not ...

Advances and Insights of APC-Asef Inhibitors for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
In Colorectal cancer (CRC), adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) directly interacts with the Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 4 (Asef) and releases its GEF activity.

Addition of exogenous diacylglycerol enhances Wnt/β-catenin signaling through stimulation of macropinocytosis

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Activation of Wnt signaling triggers macropinocytosis and drives many tumors. We now report that the exogenous addition of the second messenger lipid sn-1,2 DAG to the culture medium rapidly induces macropinocytosis.

The Threshold Level of Adenomatous Polyposis Coli Protein for Mouse Intestinal Tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Research, 2005
Abstract The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene, whose mutations are responsible for familial adenomatous polyposis, is a major negative controller of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. To investigate the dose-dependent effects of APC protein in suppressing intestinal tumorigenesis, we constructed mutant mice carrying hypomorphic Apc alleles ...

Neurite outgrowth involves adenomatous polyposis coli protein and β-catenin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2005
Neuronal morphogenesis involves the initial formation of neurites and then differentiation of neurites into axons and dendrites. The mechanisms underlying neurite formation are poorly understood. A candidate protein for controlling neurite extension is the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein, which regulates membrane extensions, microtubules and β-

A New Germline Stop Codon Mutation in Exon 15 of the Gene Predisposing to Familial Adenomatous Polyposis

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 2013
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant disorder related to germline mutations of the adenomatous polyposis coli ( APC ) gene. It is characterized by the detection of numerous adenomatous polyps that, if untreated, develop into ...

Rapamycin inhibition of polyposis and progression to dysplasia in a mouse model.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is often due to adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene germline mutations. Somatic APC defects are found in about 80% of colorectal cancers (CRCs) and adenomas.
