“…Gorelyshev et al described 2 cases of sellar craniopharyngiomas in a pair of half-siblings without a known diagnosis of FAP. 7 WES revealed a previously undescribed germline APC variant in both patients, as well as shared somatic APC mutations affecting a known hotspot region in their tumors. Biallelic loss of APC could only be confirmed in 1 patient utilizing linked heterozygous SNP markers to differentiate between alleles, but the same approach could not be used for the second patient who was homozygous for the same markers.…”

“…The protein encoded by the WT APC gene promotes the degradation of β-catenin by binding with the β-catenin protein. Deletion or mutation of the APC gene leads to the accumulation of β-catenin in the nucleus, which activates the canonical Wnt signaling pathway (5). APC gene mutations were found in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and 70%-80% of sporadic patients with CRC have APC gene inactivation (6).…”
