EACR poster prize winner for "Autolysosomal β-catenin degradation regulates Wnt-autophagy/p62 crosstalk" (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Greenhough, A. (2012, December). EACR poster prize winner for "Autolysosomal β-catenin degradation regulates Wnt-autophagy/p62 crosstalk". Poster presented at 29th Genes & Cancer Conference, University of Warwick, Warwick, England

(EACR Poster Prize) The Wnt/β-catenin signalling and autophagy pathways each play important roles during development, adult tissue homeostasis and tumorigenesis. Here we identify the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway as a negative regulator of both ba...

BAG-1 suppresses expression of the key regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β1) in colorectal tumour cells (2012)
Journal Article
Williams, A. C., Paraskeva, C., Townsend, P. A., Hague, A., Southern, S. L., Collard, T. J., …Williams, A. C. (2013). BAG-1 suppresses expression of the key regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β1) in colorectal tumour cells. Oncogene, 32(38), 4490-4499. https://doi.org/10.1038/onc.2012.480

As colorectal cancer remains the second highest cause of cancer-related deaths in much of the industrialised world, identifying novel strategies to prevent colorectal tumour development remains an important challenge. BAG-1 is a multi-functional prot... Read More about BAG-1 suppresses expression of the key regulatory cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β1) in colorectal tumour cells.

β-catenin negatively regulates expression of the prostaglandin transporter PGT in the normal intestinal epithelium and colorectal tumour cells: A role in the chemopreventive efficacy of aspirin (2012)
Journal Article
Smartt, H. J., Smartt, H., Greenhough, A., Ordóñez-Morán, P., Al-Kharusi, M., Collard, T. J., …Paraskeva, C. (2012). β-catenin negatively regulates expression of the prostaglandin transporter PGT in the normal intestinal epithelium and colorectal tumour cells: A role in the chemopreventive efficacy of aspirin. British Journal of Cancer, 107(9), 1514-1517. https://doi.org/10.1038/bjc.2012.430

Background: Levels of the pro-tumorigenic prostaglandin PGE 2 are increased in colorectal cancer, previously attributed to increased synthesis through COX-2 upregulation and, more recently, to decreased catabolism. The functionally linked genes 15-pr...

Long-range epigenetic silencing of chromosome 5q31 protocadherins is involved in early and late stages of colorectal tumorigenesis through modulation of oncogenic pathways (2012)
Journal Article
Dallosso, A., Oster, B., Greenhough, A., Thorsen, K., Curry, T., Owen, C., …Malik, K. (2012). Long-range epigenetic silencing of chromosome 5q31 protocadherins is involved in early and late stages of colorectal tumorigenesis through modulation of oncogenic pathways. Oncogene, 31, 4409-4419

Loss of tumor suppressor gene function can occur as a result of epigenetic silencing of large chromosomal regions, referred to as long-range epigenetic silencing (LRES) and genome-wide analyses have revealed that LRES is present in many cancer types....
