USP8 increases the amount of CTNNB1. 6 / 6
| 6

reach
"USP8 depletion significantly decreased beta-catenin protein level, beta-catenin target genes expression and TOP-luciferase activity in HCC cells."

reach
"Consistently, overexpression of the wild-type USP8 significantly increased the expression of β-catenin in a dose-dependent manner."

reach
"Briefly, we transfected four nonoverlapping siRNA mixtures specific for each of the DUBs into LM3 cells and found that silencing USP8 significantly decreased β-catenin protein level in LM3 cells (Fig. 1A)."

reach
"While the catalytically inactive mutant C786A (USP8 ) could not increase β-catenin protein levels, indicating that USP8 increased β-catenin protein level depending on its DUB activity (Fig. 1F)."

reach
"Since USP8 interacted with β-catenin and USP8 depletion decreased β-catenin levels, we hypothesized that USP8 may regulate the turnover of β-catenin through the Ub-proteasome pathway."

reach
"Depletion of USP8 by two non-overlapping siRNAs separately markedly decreased β-catenin levels."
