Abstract Text

Mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene are common in colorectal cancer (CRC), and more than 90% of those mutations generate stable truncated gene products. We describe a chemical screen using normal human colonic epithelial cells (HCECs) and a series of oncogenically progressed HCECs containing a truncated APC protein. With this screen, we identified a small molecule, TASIN-1 (truncated APC selective inhibitor-1), that specifically kills cells with APC truncations but spares normal and cancer cells with wild-type APC. TASIN-1 exerts its cytotoxic effects through inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis. In vivo administration of TASIN-1 inhibits tumor growth of CRC cells with truncated APC but not APC wild-type CRC cells in xenograft models and in a genetically engineered CRC mouse model with minimal toxicity. TASIN-1 represents a potential therapeutic strategy for prevention and intervention in CRC with mutant APC.

Filtering

Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
Use simple literal full or partial string matches
Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
