Loss of primary cilia in endothelial cells promotes EndMT and vascular abnormalities in the ovarian tumor microenvironment through EphA2 activation. Using human samples, in vitro models, and endothelial‐specific Kif3a‐knockout mice, we show that primary cilia loss drives the acquisition of cancer‐associated fibroblast‐like phenotypes, thereby ...

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 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.

C–C chemokine receptor type 9 (CCR9) is an immune checkpoint in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Novel anti‐CCR9 antibody SRB2 was evaluated in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy in PDAC cells, patient‐derived organoids, patient‐derived xenografts, and humanized mouse models.

Unsaturated Fatty Acids Stimulate Tumor Growth through Stabilization of β-Catenin
Some cancer cells exhibit elevated levels of free fatty acids (FAs) as well as high levels of β-catenin, a transcriptional co-activator that promotes their growth. Here, we link these two phenomena by showing that unsaturated FAs inhibit degradation of β-

β-catenin and γ-catenin are dispensable for T lymphocytes and AML leukemic stem cells
The β-catenin transcriptional coregulator is involved in various biological and pathological processes; however, its requirements in hematopoietic cells remain controversial. We re-targeted theCtnnb1gene locus to generate a true β-catenin-null mutant mouse strain.

Overexpression of CHRDL2 in colon cancer cells makes them more stem‐like and resistant to chemo‐ and radiotherapy. CHRDL2‐high cells have upregulation of the WNT pathway, genes involved in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). This leads to quicker repair of damaged DNA and more cell migration.

Independent interactions of phosphorylated β-catenin with E-cadherin at cell-cell contacts and APC at cell protrusions. [PDF]
The APC tumour suppressor functions in several cellular processes including the regulation of β-catenin in Wnt signalling and in cell adhesion and migration.In this study, we establish that in epithelial cells N-terminally phosphorylated β-catenin ...

Phosphorylation of β-catenin results in lack of β-catenin signaling in melanoma
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is involved in differentiation events during embryonic development and is further described as a pathway often participating in tumor formation when aberrantly activated. Molecular studies concentrating on colorectal cancer revealed mutations of apc, ctnnbi, btrc and tcf-4 genes which mimic Wnt stimulation.

β‐catenin, cartilage, and osteoarthritis [PDF]
The early cellular events during the development of osteoarthritis (OA) are accelerated articular chondrocyte maturation and extracellular matrix degradation, which are usually seen in the weight‐bearing region of articular cartilage. The results of our recent studies from transgenic OA mouse models indicate that upregulation of β‐catenin signaling in ...
