Functions of p120ctn isoforms in cell-cell adhesion and intracellular signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The functions of many organs depend on the generation of an epithelium. The transition from a set of loosely connected nonpolarized cells to organized sheets of closely associated polarized epithelial cells requires the assembly of specialized cell ...

Functions of p120ctn in development and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
p120 catenin (p120ctn), a component of the cadherin-catenin complex, was the first member to be identified in a most interesting subfamily of the Armadillo family. Several p120ctn isoforms are generated by alternative splicing.

Nuclear beta-catenin in mesenchymal tumors [PDF]

open access: yesModern Pathology, 2005
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

Differential alterations of positive and negative regulators of beta catenin enhance endogenous expression and activity of beta catenin in A549 non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2016
Beta catenin has been well documented in previous studies to be involved in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Beta catenin abundance and transcriptional activity are significantly regulated by several factors.

NKX2-5 regulates the expression of beta-catenin and GATA4 in ventricular myocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
The molecular pathway that controls cardiogenesis is temporally and spatially regulated by master transcriptional regulators such as NKX2-5, Isl1, MEF2C, GATA4, and beta-catenin.

Increasing β-catenin/Wnt3A activity levels drive mechanical strain-induced cell cycle progression through mitosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mechanical force and Wnt signaling activate β-catenin-mediated transcription to promote proliferation and tissue expansion. However, it is unknown whether mechanical force and Wnt signaling act independently or synergize to activate β-catenin signaling ...
