Therapeutic Targeting of ATP7B in Ovarian Carcinoma [PDF]
Abstract Purpose: Resistance to platinum chemotherapy remains a significant problem in ovarian carcinoma. Here, we examined the biological mechanisms and therapeutic potential of targeting a critical platinum resistance gene, ATP7B, using both in vitro and in vivo models.

Regulation of apico-basolateral trafficking polarity of homologous Copper-ATPases ATP7A and ATP7B
We suggest a model of apico-basolateral sorting in polarized epithelia using homologous Cu-ATPases as membrane cargoes. In polarized epithelia, upon copper treatment, homologous copper-ATPases ATP7A and ATP7B traffic from trans-Golgi network (TGN) to ...

Wilson's disease (WD, MIM#277900) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting in copper excess caused by biallelic variants in the ATP7B gene (MIM#606882) encoding a copper transporting P‐type ATPase.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the humanATP7Bgene modify the properties of the ATP7B protein [PDF]
AbstractSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the largest source of sequence variation in the human genome. However, their functional significance is not well understood. We show that SNPs in the Wilson disease gene, ATP7B, that produce amino-acid substitutions K832R and R952K, modulate ATP7B properties in vitro and influence serum copper (Cu ...

ABCB4 disease mimicking morbus Wilson: A potential diagnostic pitfall
Introduction: Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (PFIC3) is a rare autosomal recessive cholestatic liver disorder caused by genetic deficiency of ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 4 (ABCB4), a hepatocanalicular floppase ...

Wilson disease (WD) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in adenosine triphosphatase copper‐transporting beta (ATP7B); however, genetic testing identifies only one or no pathogenic ATP7B variant in a number of patients with WD.

FOUR DIFFERENT PRESENTATIONS OF WILSON’S DISEASE IN ONE FAMILY
Wilson’s disease (WD) is an important differential to consider in any child presenting with hepatic, neurological or ophthalmological manifestations of the disease. We report here 4 individuals of the same family: 2 paediatric and 2 adult patients with a

Novel ATPase Cu(2+) transporting beta polypeptide mutations in Chinese families with Wilson's disease. [PDF]
Wilson's disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder caused by mutations in the ATPase Cu(2+) transporting beta polypeptide gene (ATP7B). The detailed metabolism of copper-induced pathology in WD is still unknown.
