Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
17534194 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17882496 Reduced expression of Apaf-1 is associated with colorectal adenocarcinoma
18042457 These data point to a role for Apaf-1 as a bona fide tumor suppressor.
17885667 These findings suggest that the efflux of K(+) is prerequisite not only for the formation of the apoptosome but also for the downstream apoptotic signal-transduction pathways.
18093951 Apaf-1 has a role in regulating cytochrome c induction of apoptosis in brain tumors but not in normal neural tissues
17876870 The expression of Apaf-1 gene is low in gastric cancer tissues. Methylation of Apaf-1 gene promoter and LOH in domain of 12q22-23 are the main reasons for the expression and altered expression of Apaf-1 gene.
16951219 The promoter hypermethylation of APAF-1 is a marker of aggressive renal cell carcinoma and provides independent prognostic information on disease outcome.
17603079 Fas receptor and Apaf-1 were down-regulated in stage III colorectal cancer cell line.
17541304 APAF-1 methylation is related to transcriptional activity of EZH2 expression in early-stage tumor disease of the bladder.
14566819 AMF regulates expression of Apaf-1 and caspase-9 genes via a complex signaling pathway and indirectly regulates formation of the apoptosome.
