The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is critical to maintaining cell fate decisions. Recent study showed that liquid-liquid-phase separation (LLPS) of Axin organized the β-catenin destruction complex condensates in a normal cellular state. Mutations inactivating the APC gene are found in approximately 80% of all human colorectal cancer (CRC).

Article Synopsis
  • Proficient mismatch repair (pMMR/MSS) colorectal cancers (CRCs) have distinct characteristics compared to deficient mismatch repair (dMMR/MSI-H) tumors, particularly in response to immune therapies.
  • The study highlights that ASCL2 is overexpressed in pMMR/MSS CRCs, leading to a more stem-like tumor behavior and fewer immune cells infiltrating the tumors compared to dMMR/MSI-H types.
  • Targeting ASCL2, combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors, shows promise as a potential treatment strategy for pMMR/MSS CRCs by promoting anti-tumor immunity and improving patient outcomes.

RNA editing is among the most common RNA level modifications for generating amino acid changes. We identified a COPA A-to-I RNA editing event in CRC metastasis. Our results showed that the COPA A-to-I RNA editing rate was significantly increased in metastatic CRC tissues and was closely associated with aggressive tumors in the T and N stages.
