Beta-catenin expression in psoriasis
Indian Dermatology Online Journal, 2015 Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease characterized by abnormal keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. Beta-catenin participates in intercellular adhesion. Catenins are proteins found in complexes with cadherin cell adhesion molecules of cells. The role of catenin in regulating keratinocyte stem cell differentiation and hair follicle

Beta-catenin cleavage enhances transcriptional activation [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractNuclear activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling is required for cell proliferation in inflammation and cancer. Studies from our group indicate that β-catenin activation in colitis and colorectal cancer (CRC) correlates with increased nuclear levels of β-catenin phosphorylated at serine 552 (pβ-Cat552).

CK1epsilon is required for breast cancers dependent on beta-catenin activity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Aberrant beta-catenin signaling plays a key role in several cancer types, notably colon, liver and breast cancer. However approaches to modulate beta-catenin activity for therapeutic purposes have proven elusive to date.To uncover genetic dependencies in

Beta-catenin signaling plays a disparate role in different phases of fracture repair: implications for therapy to improve bone healing. [PDF]
PLoS Medicine, 2007 BACKGROUND: Delayed fracture healing causes substantial disability and usually requires additional surgical treatments. Pharmacologic management to improve fracture repair would substantially improve patient outcome.

Inhibition of GSK3 phosphorylation of beta-catenin via phosphorylated PPPSPXS motifs of Wnt coreceptor LRP6. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway plays essential roles in cell proliferation and differentiation, and deregulated beta-catenin protein levels lead to many types of human cancers.

Nuclear beta-catenin in mesenchymal tumors [PDF]
Modern Pathology, 2004 Beta-catenin is a crucial part of the Wnt and E-cadherin signalling pathways, which are involved in tumorigenesis. Dysregulation of these pathways allow beta-catenin to accumulate and translocate to the nucleus, where it may activate oncogenes. Such nuclear accumulation can be detected by immunohistochemistry, which may be useful in diagnosis. Although

Beta-catenin signaling negatively regulates intermediate progenitor population numbers in the developing cortex. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Intermediate progenitor cells constitute a second proliferative cell type in the developing mammalian cerebral cortex. Little is known about the factors that govern the production of intermediate progenitors.

The vitamin D receptor is a Wnt effector that controls hair follicle differentiation and specifies tumor type in adult epidermis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 We have investigated how Wnt and vitamin D receptor signals regulate epidermal differentiation. Many epidermal genes induced by beta-catenin, including the stem cell marker keratin 15, contain vitamin D response elements (VDREs) and several are induced ...
