Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18245958 Overexpression of gamma-catenin caused an increase in PTTG and c-Myc protein levels, which are likely to accelerate chromosomal instability and uncontrolled proliferation, respectively, in the affected cells.
17924338 A dominant mutation in the gene encoding plakoglobin in a German family with Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy but no cutaneous abnormalities, is reported.
12068170 stimulation of beta-catenin and suppression of gamma-catenin expression, occur within endometrial carcinomas with squamous differentiation
14739224 show that the AML-associated translocation products (AATPs) directly activate the gamma-catenin promoter, which plays a crucial role in increasing the self-renewal of HSCs upon expression of AATPs
14661054 plakoglobin can activate the Wnt signaling cascade directly without interaction of beta-catenin, and that plakoglobin has multiple functions as a transcriptional activator and a cell adhesion molecule like beta-catenin
14661058 plakoglobin is a new target gene governed by HDAC, and it acts as an oncogene in HT1080 cells
12386812 function as an inhibitor of beta-catenin/TCF-dependent gene transcription and role as a potentially novel tumor suppressor protein in a subset of human NSCLC cancers
15701841 Methylation of the gamma-catenin gene is associated with renal cell carcinoma
15781623 The gamma-catenin mutation related to Bcl-2 overexpression has a significant effect on the pathogenesis of hormone refractory prostate cancer.
11984022 Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy caused by a deletion in plakoglobin (Naxos disease). Review.
