Journal ArticleDOI

Actinin-4 increases cell motility and promotes lymph node metastasis of colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: Actinin-4 actively increases cell motility and promotes lymph node metastasis of colorectal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequent epigenetic inactivation of DICKKOPF family genes in human gastrointestinal tumors.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Dickkopfs (Dkks) are frequent targets of epigenetic silencing in gastrointestinal tumors, and that loss of DKKs may facilitate tumorigenesis through beta-catenin/T-cell factor-independent mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

E-Cadherin Regulates the Association between β-Catenin and Actinin-4

TL;DR: The association between β-catenin and actinin-4 and its regulation by E-cadherin may represent a novel molecular link connecting cell adhesion and motility and may be worth considering as a therapeutic approach to cancer invasion and metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

CHFR Protein Regulates Mitotic Checkpoint by Targeting PARP-1 Protein for Ubiquitination and Degradation

TL;DR: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is shown to be a novel CHFR-interacting protein, demonstrating a significant advantage for use of combinational chemotherapy with PARP inhibitors for cancer cells resistant to microtubule inhibitors and supporting the data that the interaction between CHFR and PARP- 1 plays an important role in cell cycle regulation and cancer therapeutic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase-1 Is a Component of the Oncogenic T-Cell Factor-4/β-Catenin Complex

TL;DR: The expression patterns and functional properties of PARP-1 were highly suggestive of its participation in early colorectal carcinogenesis, and it was identified as a novel coactivator of the β-catenin/TCF-4 complex.
