TL;DR
It is demonstrated that activation of β-catenin is associated with a poor prognosis in melanoma and inhibiting the enzymatic activity of MICAL2 offers a promising and innovative strategy to improve outcomes in β-catenin-driven melanoma.
The role and mechanisms of ETV4 in cancer biology, with a particular focus on colorectal cancer (CRC), are summarized, as well as its biomarkers and therapeutic potential.

Clinically, reduced SOCS3 expression has been associated with lymph node metastasis, advanced TNM stage, and poorer prognosis, whereas higher SOCS3 levels may correlate with improved outcomes and chemosensitivity, and further translational studies are needed to validate SOCS3 as a biomarker and therapeutic target in CR...

It is shown that the transcriptional cofactor LBH drives mutation-independent Wnt activation and malignant progression in GC via a tumour microenvironment-regulated post-translational stabilization mechanism, elucidate a critical tumour–stroma crosstalk mechanism and establish the targeted disruption of the LBH–β-caten...

Findings identify JOSD2 as a critical oncogenic factor that promotes β-catenin activity and validate JOSD2 as an underlying therapeutic target for metastatic CRC (mCRC) both in vitro and in vivo.
