Abstract FBW7 (F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7) or Fbxw7 is a tumor suppressor,
which promotes the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of numerous oncoproteins
including Mcl-1, Cyclin E, Notch, c-Jun, and c-Myc. In turn, FBW7 is regulated by multiple
upstream factors including p53, C/EBP-δ, EBP2, Pin1, Hes-5 and Numb4 as well as by
microRNAs such as miR-223, miR-27a, miR-25, and miR-129-5p. Given that the Fbw7 tumor
suppressor is frequently inactivated or deleted in various human cancers, targeting FBW7 …
Abstract
FBW7 (F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7) or Fbxw7 is a tumor suppressor, which promotes the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of numerous oncoproteins including Mcl-1, Cyclin E, Notch, c-Jun, and c-Myc. In turn, FBW7 is regulated by multiple upstream factors including p53, C/EBP-δ, EBP2, Pin1, Hes-5 and Numb4 as well as by microRNAs such as miR-223, miR-27a, miR-25, and miR-129-5p. Given that the Fbw7 tumor suppressor is frequently inactivated or deleted in various human cancers, targeting FBW7 regulators is a promising anti-cancer therapeutic strategy.
