Methylation of DACT2 accelerates esophageal cancer development by activating Wnt signaling
Esophageal cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. DACT2 is frequently methylated in human lung, hepatic, gastric and thyroid cancers. The methylation status and function of DACT2 remain to be elucidated in human esophageal cancer. Ten esophageal cancer cell lines, 42 cases of dysplasia and 126 cases of primary esophageal cancer samples were analyzed in this study. The expressi...
متن کاملMethylation of DACT2 Promotes Papillary Thyroid Cancer Metastasis by Activating Wnt Signaling
Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignant disease and the incidence is increasing. DACT2 was found frequently methylated in human lung cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. To explore the epigenetic change and the role of DACT2 in thyroid cancer, 7 thyroid cancer cell lines, 10 cases of non-cancerous thyroid tissue samples and 99 cases of primary thyroid cancer samples were involved ...
متن کاملDACT2 is frequently methylated in human gastric cancer and methylation of DACT2 activated Wnt signaling.
Dapper, Dishevelled-associated antagonist of β-catenin (DACT), is a key regulator of Wnt signaling pathway. The purpose of this study is to explore the epigenetic changes and the function ofDACT2 in human gastric cancer (GC). Eight human gastric cancer cell lines, 167 cases of primary gastric cancer and 8 cases of normal gastric mucosa were involved in this study. In addition, methylation Speci...
متن کاملInvestigating the methylation status of DACT2 gene and its association with MTHFR C677T polymorphism in patients with colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the common causes of cancer death in Iranian population. Both genetic and epigenetic changes have been implicated in CRC pathogenesis. DACT2 gene as one of the WNT signaling pathway inhibitor was shown to display tumor suppressor activity in many cancers. The aim of present study was to investigate the methylation status of DACT2 gene and its ...
متن کاملSETDB1 accelerates tumorigenesis by regulating WNT signaling pathway
We investigated the oncogenic role of SETDB1 focusing on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) having high expression of this protein. A total of 387 lung cancer cases were examined by immunohistochemistry, 72% of NSCLC samples were positive for SETDB1 staining, compared to 46% samples of normal bronchial epithelium (106 cases) (p<0.0001). Percent positive cells and intensity of staining increased...
