Tsui Y, Sze K, Tung E, Ho D, Lee T, Ng I
Oncotarget . 2017 Apr; 8(24):39430-39442. PMID: 28455968
Dishevelled-3 (Dvl3) is regarded as a binding hub with many different interacting partners. However, its regulation and mechanism on cancer stemness remain to be explored. In this study, we showed...

Leung C, Chak-Lui Wong C, Fan D, Kai A, Tung E, Xu I, et al.
Oncotarget . 2015 Apr; 6(13):10880-92. PMID: 25834102
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characteristically one of the most rapidly proliferating tumors which outgrows functional blood supply and results in regional oxygen deprivation. Overexpression of PIM1, a serine/threonine kinase, has...

Tung E, Ng I
Future Oncol . 2012 Dec; 8(12):1525-8. PMID: 23231514
Hyperactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway has been implicated in cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) is a secretory antagonist of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and has been found...

Ma W, Chak-Lui Wong C, Tung E, Wong C, Ng I
Hepatology . 2012 Jul; 57(1):152-61. PMID: 22829315
Unlabelled: Deregulation of Rho guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) pathways plays an important role in tumorigenesis and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). RhoE/Rnd3 belongs to an atypical subfamily of the RhoGTPase, the...

Tung E, Wong B, Yau T, Ng I
PLoS One . 2012 May; 7(5):e36565. PMID: 22570728
Background: Activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway plays a crucial role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein-6 (LRP6) is one of the co-receptors of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway...

Tung E, Mak C, Fatima S, Lo R, Zhao H, Zhang C, et al.
Liver Int . 2011 Sep; 31(10):1494-504. PMID: 21955977
Background: Although Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) is known to be a negative regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, it has been recently found to be upregulated in cancers. Aims: We investigated the clinical...

Gao P, Chak-Lui Wong C, Tung E, Lee J, Wong C, Ng I
J Hepatol . 2010 Dec; 54(6):1177-84. PMID: 21145831
Background & Aims: Deregulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) plays an important role in human carcinogenesis. However, miRNA deregulation in the pre-malignant lesions and expression changes during multistep hepatocarcinogenesis remain elusive. Methods:...

Ko F, Chan L, Tung E, Lowe S, Ng I, Yam J
Gastroenterology . 2010 Jul; 139(4):1397-407. PMID: 20600027
Background & Aims: Deleted in liver cancer 1 (DLC1), which encodes a Rho GTPase activating protein, is a bona fide tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma. Underexpression of DLC1 in cancer...

Hui I, Tung E, Sze K, Ching Y, Ng I
Liver Int . 2009 Oct; 30(1):65-75. PMID: 19845851
Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), which phosphorylates p70S6K and 4EBP1 and activates the protein translation process, is upregulated in cancers and its activation may be involved in cancer...

Chak-Lui Wong C, Wong C, Tung E, Man K, Ng I
Hepatology . 2009 Feb; 49(5):1583-94. PMID: 19205033
Unlabelled: Deregulation of Rho family small guanosine triphosphatases has been implicated in human carcinogenesis. Rho-kinases are downstream effectors of Rho guanosine triphosphatases in the regulation of cytoskeletal reorganization and cell...
