Generation and characterization of mice carrying a conditional allele of the Wwox tumor suppressor gene.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
WWOX, the gene that spans the second most common human chromosomal fragile site, FRA16D, is inactivated in multiple human cancers and behaves as a suppressor of tumor growth.

WWOX: A fragile tumor suppressor

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 2014
WWOX, the WW domain-containing oxidoreductase gene at chromosome region 16q23.3–q24.1, spanning chromosomal fragile site FRA16D, encodes the 46 kDa Wwox protein, a tumor suppressor that is lost or reduced in expression in a wide variety of cancers, including breast, prostate, ovarian, and lung.

Self-aggregating TIAF1 in lung cancer progression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recent studies have demonstrated that transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β1)-induced antiapoptotic factor (TIAF1) is able to form aggregates in the hippocampi of middle-aged normal individuals.

WWOX Oxidoreductase - Substrate and Enzymatic Characterization

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 2011
WWOX is a tumour suppressor gene that spans the common fragile site FRA16D. Analysis of the WWOX expression pattern in normal human tissues showed the highest expression in testis, prostate, and ovary. Its altered expression has been demonstrated in different tissues and tumour types.

The effects of protocadherin 8 and WWOX in prostate adenocarcinoma

open access: yesJournal of Men's Health, 2022
Objective: The protocadherin 8 (PCDH8) gene, located on chromosome 13q14.3 encodes an integral membrane protein. WWOX (fragile site FRA16D oxido-reductase) is a tumor suppressor gene located in region 16q23.324.1. The aim of this study was to investigate

A p53/TIAF1/WWOX triad exerts cancer suppression but may cause brain protein aggregation due to p53/WWOX functional antagonism

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2019
Background Tumor suppressor WWOX physically binds p53 and TIAF1 and together induces apoptosis and tumor suppression. To understand the molecular action, here we investigated the formation of WWOX/TIAF1/p53 triad and its regulation of cancer cell ...

WWOX guards genome stability by activating ATM [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2015
Common fragile sites (CFSs) tend to break upon replication stress and have been suggested to be "hot spots" for genomic instability. Recent evidence, however, implies that in the wake of DNA damage, WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX, the gene product of the FRA16D fragile site), associates with ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) and regulates ...

Delineating WWOX Protein Interactome by Tandem Affinity Purification-Mass Spectrometry: Identification of Top Interactors and Key Metabolic Pathways Involved

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2018
It has become clear from multiple studies that WWOX (WW domain-containing oxidoreductase) operates as a “non-classical” tumor suppressor of significant relevance in cancer progression.

Tumor suppressor WWOX and p53 alterations and drug resistance in glioblastomas

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2013
Tumor suppressor p53 are frequently mutated in glioblastomas (GBMs) and appears to contribute, in part, to resistance to temozolomide and therapeutic drugs.

HACE1 deficiency causes an autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The genetic etiology of neurodevelopmental defects is extremely diverse, and the lack of distinctive phenotypic features means that genetic criteria are often required for accurate diagnostic classification. We aimed to identify the causative
