Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary precancerous syndrome and is characterized by the manifestation of adenomatous polyps in the colon and rectum at an early age. Germline mutations of APC gene cause FAP.

APC as a checkpoint gene: The beginning or the end? [PDF]
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the United States. In 2002, it is estimated that 148,300 new cases of CRC will be diagnosed, resulting in approximately 56,600 deaths.1 The latter renders CRC the second leading cause of deaths from cancer in the United States. An individual’s life-time risk of developing CRC is 6%, with

Somatic Mutations of the APC Gene in Primary Breast Cancers [PDF]
APC gene mutations play an important role in the initiation step of colorectal carcinogenesis in both familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients and non-FAP patients. Although the APC gene is expressed in most tissues, including the lung, liver, kidney, and mammary gland, its somatic mutations have rarely been found in primary tumors affecting these

β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

The Genomics of colorectal cancer: State of the art
The concept of the adenoma-carcinoma sequence, as first espoused by Morson et al. whereby the development of colorectal cancer is dependent on a stepwise progression from adenomatous polyp to carcinoma is well documented.

Background and Aim: Different regulation processes have an effect on osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and among them Wnt signaling pathway is particularly desirable. In Wnt signaling pathway, Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC)

A tumor suppressor gene, Adenomatous polyposis coli (Apc), is expressed in the nervous system from embryonic to adulthood stage, and transmits the Wnt signaling pathway in which schizophrenia susceptibility genes, including T-cell factor 4 (TCF4) and ...

The epitranscriptomic regulation of adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumour suppressor gene in cancers is unclear. Here the authors show that N6-methyladenosine methylation writer METTL3 downregulates APC by recruiting YTHDF2 for APC mRNA degradation ...

Radiation‐induced hypothyroidism follows head and neck radiotherapy due to oxidative stress and inflammation. Electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds containing adenosine have potential to modulate thyroid repair. Scaffolds enhance thyrocyte proliferation, antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and catalase, reduce senescence and apoptosis markers ...

Association between the APC gene D1822V variant and the genetic susceptibility of colorectal cancer
Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene polymorphisms are believed to contribute to tumor susceptibility. However, the association between genetic variants (A/T) in the APC gene D1822V polymorphism and colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility remains unknown.
