The WWOX gene in brain development and pathology [PDF]
Shortly after its discovery in 2000, WWOX was hailed as a tumor suppressor gene. In subsequent years of research, this function was confirmed indisputably. Majority of tumors show high rate of loss of heterozygosity and decreased expression of WWOX.

Molecular Biology of the WWOX Gene That Spans Chromosomal Fragile Site FRA16D
It is now more than 20 years since the FRA16D common chromosomal fragile site was characterised and the WWOX gene spanning this site was identified. In this time, much information has been discovered about its contribution to disease; however, the normal

Movement Disorders in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies
Abstract Background Monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) frequently feature co‐occurring movement disorders. Gene discovery has expanded epilepsy‐dyskinesia syndromes (EDS) from classic associations such as stereotypies in Rett syndrome to PRRT2‐related infantile seizures with paroxysmal dyskinesia and crouched gait in SCN1A ...

Background The putative tumor suppressor WWOX gene spans the common chromosomal fragile site 16D (FRA16D) at chromosome area 16q23.3-24.1. This region is a frequent target for loss of heterozygosity and chromosomal rearrangement in ovarian, breast ...

Wwox–Brca1 interaction: role in DNA repair pathway choice [PDF]
In this study, loss of expression of the fragile site-encoded Wwox protein was found to contribute to radiation and cisplatin resistance of cells, responses that could be associated with cancer recurrence and poor outcome. WWOX gene deletions occur in a variety of human cancer types, and reduced Wwox protein expression can be detected early during ...

Loss of Wwox Perturbs Neuronal Migration and Impairs Early Cortical Development
Mutations in the WWOX gene cause a broad range of ultra-rare neurodevelopmental and brain degenerative disorders, associated with a high likelihood of premature death in animal models as well as in humans.

Molecular Alterations in Osteosarcomas of the Oral and Maxillofacial Region: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Background Given the rarity and aggressive nature of osteosarcomas (OS) in the oral and maxillofacial region, understanding their molecular alterations is essential to improve diagnosis, prognosis, and guide targeted therapies. This study aimed to map molecular alterations associated with oral and maxillofacial OS, providing an overview of the
