Amyloid precursor protein modulates β-catenin degradation

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2007
Background The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is genetically associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Elucidating the function of APP should help understand AD pathogenesis and provide insights into therapeutic designs against this devastating ...

β-catenin promotes MTX resistance of leukemia cells by down-regulating FPGS expression via NF-κB

Cancer Cell International, 2020
Background Aberrant activation of β-catenin has been shown to play important roles in the chemoresistance of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but the involvement and mechanism of β-catenin in methotrexate (MTX) resistance is poorly understood.

β-catenin-IRP2-primed iron availability to mitochondrial metabolism is druggable for active β-catenin-mediated cancer

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Background Although β-catenin signaling cascade is frequently altered in human cancers, targeting this pathway has not been approved for cancer treatment.

Expression of β-Catenin and γ-Catenin in Maxillary Bone Regeneration [PDF]

International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2011
β- and γ-catenin are components of catenin family involved in cadherin adhesion function. Recently it has been shown that this family is involved in other functions such as signaling and activation of transcription factors. The final goal of this study was to evaluate the role of β- and γ-catenin in bone cell physiology and bone regeneration. Formalin-

Cell density–dependent nuclear‐cytoplasmic shuttling of SETDB1 integrates with Hippo signaling to regulate YAP1‐mediated transcription

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At low cell density, SETDB1 and YAP1 accumulate in the nucleus. As cell density increases, the Hippo pathway is gradually activated, and SETDB1 is associated with increased YAP1 phosphorylation. At high cell density, phosphorylated YAP1 is sequestered in the cytoplasm, while SETDB1 becomes polyubiquitinated and degraded by the ubiquitin–proteasome ...

Transient Expression of WNT2 Promotes Somatic Cell Reprogramming by Inducing β-Catenin Nuclear Accumulation

Stem Cell Reports, 2016
Summary: Treatment with several Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway regulators can change the cellular reprogramming efficiency; however, the dynamics and role of endogenous Wnt/β-catenin signaling in reprogramming remain largely unanswered. Here we identify

iNOS activation regulates β-catenin association with its partners in endothelial cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Signals that disrupt β-catenin association to cadherins may influence the translocation of β-catenin to the nucleus to regulate transcription.

β‐TrCP overexpression enhances cisplatin sensitivity by depleting BRCA1

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low levels of β‐TrCP (Panel A) allow the accumulation of BRCA1 and CtIP, which facilitate the repair of cisplatin‐induced DNA damage via homologous recombination (HR) and promote tumor cell survival. In contrast, high β‐TrCP expression (Panel B) leads to BRCA1 and CtIP degradation, impairing HR repair, resulting in persistent DNA damage and apoptosis ...

Oncogenic potential of N-terminal deletion and S45Y mutant β-catenin in promoting hepatocellular carcinoma development in mice

BMC Cancer, 2018
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide with limited treatment options. Mutation of β-catenin is one of the most frequent genetic events along hepatocarcinogenesis.

δ‐Catenin regulates proliferation and apoptosis in renal cell carcinoma via promoting β‐catenin nuclear localization and activating its downstream target genes

Cancer Medicine, 2020
δ‐Catenin is a unique member of the catenin family and is proved to be overexpressed in diverse human cancer types. However, the clinical significance and underling mechanism of δ‐catenin expression in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remain elusive.
