C6orf10 low-frequency and rare variants in italian multiple sclerosis patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In light of the complex nature of multiple sclerosis (MS) and the recently estimated contribution of low-frequency variants into disease, decoding its genetic risk components requires novel variant prioritization strategies.

Analysis of WWOX gene expression and protein levels in pterygium

open access: yesInternational Ophthalmology, 2020
Pterygium, a degenerative and hyperplastic lesion, has premalignant properties as a tumor analog. WWOX is a tumor suppressor gene and involved in many signal pathways, such as cell proliferation, embryonic development, metabolism and apoptosis. In many cancers, the loss of WWOX or the presence of abnormal transcripts indicates the tumor suppressor ...

Wwox deficiency leads to neurodevelopmental and degenerative neuropathies and glycogen synthase kinase 3β-mediated epileptic seizure activity in mice

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
Human WWOX gene resides in the chromosomal common fragile site FRA16D and encodes a tumor suppressor WW domain-containing oxidoreductase. Loss-of-function mutations in both alleles of WWOX gene lead to autosomal recessive abnormalities in pediatric ...

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.

The WWOX tumor suppressor gene in endometrial adenocarcinoma

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2013
Endometrial cancer is a lethal malignancy, the causes of which remain to be determined. The aim of the present study, carried out on tumor samples from 79 patients, was to evaluate the role of the WWOX tumor suppressor gene in endometrial adenocarcinoma.

Neurological Disorders Associated with WWOX Germline Mutations—A Comprehensive Overview

open access: yesCells, 2021
The transcriptional regulator WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) is a key player in a number of cellular and biological processes including tumor suppression. Recent evidence has emerged associating WWOX with non-cancer disorders.

A nuclear role for the respiratory enzyme CLK-1 in regulating mitochondrial stress responses and longevity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The coordinated regulation of mitochondrial and nuclear activities is essential for cellular respiration and its disruption leads to mitochondrial dysfunction, a hallmark of ageing.

Molecular alterations of the WWOX gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma

open access: yesNeoplasma, 2014
The WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene is a candidate tumor suppressor gene. However, its exact mechanism is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of the WWOX gene in the development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Tissues were collected from 65 NPC patients.

Conditional Wwox deletion in mouse mammary gland by means of two Cre recombinase approaches. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Loss of WWOX expression has been reported in many different cancers including breast cancer. Elucidating the function of this gene in adult tissues has not been possible with full Wwox knockout models. Here we characterize the first conditional models of

Tumor Suppressor WWOX Contributes to the Elimination of Tumorigenic Cells in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
WWOX is a >1 Mb gene spanning FRA16D Common Chromosomal Fragile Site, a region of DNA instability in cancer. Consequently, altered WWOX levels have been observed in a wide variety of cancers. In vitro studies have identified a large number and variety of
