General description

Beta-Catenin is a 92 kD protein normally found in the cytoplasm of the cell in the submembranous location. This protein is associated with E-Cadherin and may be essential for the function of E-Cadherin. Mutations in the Beta-Catenin gene result in nuclear accumulation of this protein. Nuclear accumulation of this protein has been demonstrated in fibromatosis lesions of the breast and abdomen and therefore is useful in differentiating this lesion from other spindle cell lesions that may occur in these locations. Nuclear accumulation of Beta-Catenin has also been demonstrated in colorectal carcinoma.

Although separating gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) from mesenteric fibromatosis and sclerosing mesenteritis is clinically important, this distinction sometimes poses problems for practicing pathologists. In the STI571 (Gleevec, Imatinib) era, the problem may be further compounded when protocol-driven staining for CD117

Aggressive fibromatosis is a monoclonal proliferation of spindle (fibroblast-like) cells. A subset of lesions contain somatic truncating adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene mutations, and all of the lesions contain an elevated beta-catenin protein level. A major function of APC is

Sporadic aggressive fibromatosis (also called desmoid tumor) is a monoclonal proliferation of spindle (fibrocyte-like) cells that is locally invasive but does not metastasize.

Background: Ependymomas are glial tumors derived from differentiated ependymal cells. In contrast to other types of brain tumors, histological grading is not a good prognostic marker for these tumors. In order to determine genomic changes in an anaplastic ependymoma, we

Apart from its role in cell-adhesion, beta-catenin is regarded as an oncoprotein, the cytoplasmic level of which is regulated by APC as a tumor suppressor protein. Changes of chromosome 5q, the region that includes the APC-gene, are known to be
