| β-catenin and ZEB1 are two important proteins that play significant roles in cancer biology, particularly in the processes of cell adhesion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and tumor progression. β-catenin is a key component of the Wnt signaling pathway, which is crucial for cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It also plays a role in cell-cell adhesion by linking cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton. Role in Cancer: ZEB1 is often upregulated in cancer and is associated with increased invasiveness and metastasis. It can repress epithelial markers (like E-cadherin) and promote mesenchymal markers (like N-cadherin and vimentin), facilitating the transition to a more aggressive cancer phenotype. (MMP)-2 and MMP-9, which are the down-stream targets of β-catenin and play a crucial role in cancer cell metastasis. |
| Medulloblastoma is an aggressive primary brain tumor that arises in the cerebellum of children and young adults. Activation of these three pathways Akt/NF-kB, Shh, and Wnt/b-catenin converge in the upregulation of C-myc, N-myc, and Cyclin D1, three oncoproteins that play key roles in the development of medulloblastomas. High levels of these three oncoproteins were considered to be bad prognosis because they are related to unfavorable therapeutic outcome. |
