Prostate cancer stem cell fate: β-catenin and the Wnt pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A major problem in prostate cancer is the high relapse rate post therapy. This is believed to be due to the presence of a small number of prostate cancer stem cells within a tumour.

A novel bidirectional positive feedback loop between Wnt/ -catenin and EGFR/ERK: role of context-specific signalling crosstalk in modulating epithelial tissue regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
By operating as both a subunit of the cadherin complex and a key component of Wnt signalling, β-catenin constitutes the lynchpin between cell:cell contact and transcriptional regulation of proliferation to co-ordinate epithelial tissue homeostasis and ...

Wnt/beta-catenin/Tcf signaling: A critical pathway in gastrointestinal tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, including the liver, bile ducts, and pancreas, constitute the largest group of malignant tumors. Colorectal cancer is one of the most common neoplastic diseases in Western countries and one of the leading causes of ...

The FAM deubiquitylating enzyme localizes to multiple points of protein trafficking in epithelia, where it associates with E-cadherin and beta-catenin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Copyright © 2004 by The American Society for Cell Biology.Ubiquitylation is a necessary step in the endocytosis and lysosomal trafficking of many plasma membrane proteins and can also influence protein trafficking in the biosynthetic pathway.

The CK1δ/ϵ-Tip60 Axis Enhances Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling via Regulating β-Catenin Acetylation in Colon Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Casein kinase 1δ/ϵ (CK1δ/ϵ) are well-established positive modulators of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of β-catenin transcriptional activity by CK1δ/ϵ remain unclear.

Increased Expression of Adherens Junction Components in Mouse Liver following Bile Duct Ligation

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
Adherens junctions, consisting of cadherins and catenins, are a group of cell-to-cell junctions that mediate mechanistic linkage between neighboring cells. By doing so, adherens junctions ensure direct intercellular contact and play an indispensable role

An immunohistochemical study of beta-catenin in HNPCC colon tumours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 49-55).Beta-catenin is normally complexed with adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein and E-cadherin adhesion molecule, and localized on the cell membrane.

γ-Catenin at Adherens Junctions: Mechanism and Biologic Implications in Hepatocellular Cancer after β-Catenin Knockdown

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2013
β-Catenin is important in liver homeostasis as a part of Wnt signaling and adherens junctions (AJs), while its aberrant activation is observed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Genetic dissection of differential signaling threshold requirements for the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Contributions of null and hypomorphic alleles of Apc in mice produce both developmental and pathophysiological phenotypes. To ascribe the resulting genotype-to-phenotype relationship unambiguously to the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway, we challenged the allele

Exiting the dark side: A vital role for Caspase-3 in Yap signaling

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2018
Caspase-3 is known to play a critical function in the process of apoptosis. Recently, we have discovered a non-apoptotic role of Caspase-3 as a key regulator of cell proliferation and organ size.
