Overview of Gene Research
Rnf43, also known as E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF43 or RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase RNF43, is a crucial negative regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway [3]. It functions as a tumor suppressor by ubiquitinating the Frizzled receptor, targeting it for lysosomal degradation and thus inhibiting Wnt/β-catenin signaling [3]. This regulation is vital for processes like embryonic development and adult stem cell homeostasis, and dysregulation is associated with various diseases, especially cancer [4]. Genetically engineered mouse models are valuable for studying its function.

In a genetically engineered mouse model of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), loss of Rnf43 accelerated Kras-mediated neoplasia, decreased survival, and remodeled the tumor immune microenvironment, with changes in macrophage, T and B lymphocyte populations, and immune checkpoint molecule expression [2]. In hepatocyte-specific Rnf43/Znrf3 knockout mice, it led to steatohepatitis, increased unsaturated lipids, defective hepatocyte regeneration, and liver cancer due to a differentiation/proliferation imbalance [1].

In conclusion, Rnf43 plays a key role in regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Model-based research, especially through gene knockout mouse models, has revealed its significance in diseases such as PDAC and liver cancer, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in these disease areas.
