Disease Linkage
General Disease Association:
Neurological disorders
Specific Diseases (Non-cancerous):
Alzheimer's disease (AD); Parkinson's disease; Leopard syndrome; Aneurysmal bone cysts; Waardenburg syndrome Type 2
Comments:
Mutations on GSK3B have been shown to associated with Parkinson disease, and homozygous GSK3B TT haplotype is associated with Alzheimer disease.
Gene Expression in Cancers:
TranscriptoNET (www.transcriptonet.ca) analysis with mRNA expression data retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, which was normalized against 60 abundantly and commonly found proteins, indicated altered expression for this protein kinase as shown here as the percent change from normal tissue controls (%CFC) as supported with the Student T-test in the following types of human cancers: Bladder carcinomas (%CFC= +112, p<0.0001); Bladder carcinomas (%CFC= +112, p<0.0001); Bladder carcinomas (%CFC= +52, p<0.085); Brain glioblastomas (%CFC= +308, p<0.005); Cervical cancer (%CFC= -57, p<0.0002); Cervical cancer stage 1B (%CFC= +56, p<0.073); Cervical cancer stage 2B (%CFC= +73, p<0.05); Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (cRCC) stage I (%CFC= +104, p<0.058); Prostate cancer - metastatic (%CFC= +95, p<0.0001); Prostate cancer - primary (%CFC= -60, p<0.0001); Prostate cancer - primary (%CFC= +63, p<0.011); Skin melanomas - malignant (%CFC= +59, p<0.0002); and Uterine leiomyomas (%CFC= -54, p<0.016).
Mutagenesis Experiments:
Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice have not yet revealed a role for this protein kinase in mouse cancer oncogenesis.
Mutation Rate in All Cancers:
Percent mutation rates per 100 amino acids length in human cancers: 0.09 % in 24865 diverse cancer specimens. This rate is only 16 % higher than the average rate of 0.075 % calculated for human protein kinases in general.
