WNT/beta-catenin pathway activation in Wilms tumors: a unifying mechanism with multiple entries?

30 Aug 2009 Based on characterization of both genomic and expression status of WT1 and CTNNB1 (beta-catenin) in a series of 60 Wilms tumor samples, combined with genome-wide expression profiling of these tumors, normal mature and fetal kidney controls, we show ...

Twist expression promotes migration and invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma.

16 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND: Twist, a transcription factor of the basic helix-loop-helix class, is reported to regulate cancer metastasis. It is known to induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In this study, we evaluated the expression of twist and its ...

Breast cancer risk is not increased in individuals with TWIST1 mutation confirmed Saethre-Chotzen syndrome: an Australian multicenter study.

29 Jun 2009 Saethre-Chotzen syndrome (SCS) is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome involving craniosynostosis, craniofacial abnormalities, and syndactyly. A recent Scandinavian study reported an increased risk of breast cancer in individuals with a clinical ...

Negative regulation of TIMP1 is mediated by transcription factor TWIST1.

29 Jun 2009 TWIST1 is involved in tumor invasion and metastasis by promoting epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. However, the molecular target of TWIST1 involving this mechanism is poorly understood. To identify the TWIST1-regulated genes, we established the ...

Phylogenetic and evolutionary relationships and developmental expression patterns of the zebrafish twist gene family.

28 Jun 2009 Four members of the twist gene family (twist1a, 1b, 2, and 3) are found in the zebrafish, and they are thought to have arisen through three rounds of gene duplication, two of which occurred prior to the tetrapod-fish split. Phylogenetic analysis ...

A novel lung metastasis signature links Wnt signaling with cancer cell self-renewal and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in basal-like breast cancer.

21 Jun 2009 The establishment of metastasis depends on the ability of cancer cells to acquire a migratory phenotype combined with their capacity to recreate a secondary tumor in a distant tissue. In epithelial cancers, such as those of the breast, the ...

Characterization of sequences in human TWIST required for nuclear localization.

15 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: Twist is a transcription factor that plays an important role in proliferation and tumorigenesis. Twist is a nuclear protein that regulates a variety of cellular functions controlled by protein-protein interactions and gene transcription ...

Snail2 cooperates with Snail1 in the repression of vitamin D receptor in colon cancer.

3 Jun 2009 Vitamin D receptor (VDR) mediates the antitumoral action of the active vitamin D metabolite 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)). VDR expression is lost during colon cancer progression causing unresponsiveness to 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and its ...

Integration of differentiation signals during indirect flight muscle formation by a novel enhancer of Drosophila vestigial gene.

Jun 2009 The gene vestigial (vg) plays a key role in indirect flight muscle (IFM) development. We show here that vg is controlled by the Notch anti-myogenic signaling pathway in myoblasts and is regulated by a novel 822 bp enhancer during IFM ...
