Adenomatous polyposis coli protein (APC) is a ubiquitous multidomain protein that has a well documented role as a tumor suppressor. The mechanism of APC-mediated tumor suppression is still an area of active investigation; however, several studies suggest that APC is a negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway as it downregulates β-catenin via interactions with Axin/GSK3-β complex, thereby preventing transcription of genes such as MYC that contribute to cell proliferation. Defective APC proteins contribute to the initiation and proliferation of various types of cancers, including familial adenomatous polyposis. However, other studies have shown that APC interacts with a range of other proteins such as the EB1 microtubule-binding proteins, to regulate other processes such as cell migration.

The increasing complexity of different cell types revealed by single-cell analysis of tissues presents challenges in efficiently elucidating their functions. Here we show, using prostate as a model tissue, that primary organoids and freshly isolated epithelial cells can be CRISPR
Inducible in vivo genome editing with CRISPR-Cas9.
Genetic-driven deregulation of the Wnt pathway is crucial but not sufficient for colorectal cancer (CRC) tumourigenesis. Here, we show that environmental glutamine restriction further augments Wnt signaling in APC mutant intestinal organoids to promote stemness and leads to adenocarcinoma formation
CRISPR base editing enables the creation of targeted single-base conversions without generating double-stranded breaks. However, the efficiency of current base editors is very low in many cell types. We reengineered the sequences of BE3, BE4Gam, and xBE3 by codon optimization
PD-L1 expression is elevated in various human cancers, including colorectal cancer. High levels of PD-L1 expressed on tumor epithelial cells are one of the potential mechanisms by which tumor cells become resistant to immune attack. However, PD-L1 regulation in tumor
