Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Desmoplastic fibroma of the mandible: a rare gnathic bone tumor with a review of the literature
Desmoplastic fibroma (DF) is a rare bone tumor, which is known to involve mostly the gnathic bones. In this setting, the clinical presentation is usually represented by a bulging tumor of the face. Radiologically, the tumor is usually characterized by an

A specific upregulated long noncoding RNA in colorectal cancer promotes cancer progression
Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including colorectal cancer (CRC). The gene mutations of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) were found in most patients with CRC.

Characterization of a 60S complex of the adenomatous polyposis coli tumor suppressor protein
The tumor suppressor protein adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is a multifunctional protein with a well characterized role in the Wnt signal transduction pathway and roles in cytoskeletal regulation and cell polarity. The soluble pool of APC protein in colon epithelial tumor cells exists in two distinct complexes fractionating at approximately 20S and ...

ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe eating disorder associated with extreme weight loss, hyperactivity, and amenorrhea. Neuroimaging studies revealed brain atrophy and disruption of white matter integrity in the corpus callosum (CC) of patients with AN. However, the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain unclear.

Clinical characterization and the mutation spectrum in Swedish adenomatous polyposis families [PDF]
Background: The dominantly inherited condition familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is caused by germline mutations in the APC gene. Finding the causative mutations has great implications for the families.

An APC:WNT Counter-Current-Like Mechanism Regulates Cell Division Along the Human Colonic Crypt Axis: A Mechanism That Explains How APC Mutations Induce Proliferative Abnormalities That Drive Colon Cancer Development. [PDF]
APC normally down-regulates WNT signaling in human colon, and APC mutations cause proliferative abnormalities in premalignant crypts leading to colon cancer, but the mechanisms are unclear at the level of spatial and functional organization of the crypt.

Innate Lymphoid Cells in Tissue Homeostasis and Diseases
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a heterogeneous group of immune cells with phenotypic and functional plasticity. ILCs dynamically regulate various immune cell types and play a crucial role in the pathophysiological processes of specific organs during sepsis. Targeting ILCs is a promising strategy for treating sepsis.

APC selectively mediates response to chemotherapeutic agents in breast cancer [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) tumor suppressor is mutated or hypermethylated in up to 70 % of sporadic breast cancers depending on subtype; however, the effects of APC mutation on tumorigenic properties remain unexplored. Using the Apc(
