Depiction of Wnt Signaling Dysregulation in TNBC Cells When Compared to Healthy, Noncancerous Cells

In healthy noncancerous cells, a destruction complex comprised of APC, Axin, GSK-3β, and CK1α degrades β-catenin in the cytoplasm via ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis. This prevents β-catenin movement to the nucleus, therefore leaving downstream Wnt genes off. In TNBC cells, extracellular Wnt ligands bind to overexpressed Frizzled7 (FZD7) receptors, which recruits disheveled to the receptor to inhibit the destruction complex. This allows β-catenin to accumulate in the cytoplasm before translocating to the nucleus to activate the transcription of Wnt target genes that promote oncogenesis.
