1. In conclusion, this study provides genetic and some preliminary functional evidence to support the view that the TCF4 (NM_001243232) p.Pro29Thr mutation causes familial SAK. PMID: 28921696
2. Hippo pathway transcription factor TEAD4 directly associates with the Wnt pathway transcription factor TCF4 via their DNA-binding domains, forming a complex on target genes. VGLL4 binds to this TEAD4-TCF4 complex to inhibit transactivation of both TCF4 and TEAD4. PMID: 28051067

5. we found that CypA binds beta-catenin and is recruited to Wnt target gene promoters. By increasing the interaction between beta-catenin and TCF4, CypA enhances transcriptional activity. Our results demonstrate that CypA enhances GIC stemness, self-renewal, and radioresistance through Wnt/beta-catenin signaling PMID: 28790108

7. The formation of the beta-catenin/TCF4 complex was disrupted by HI-B1 due to the direct interaction of HI-B1 with beta-catenin. Colon cancer patient-derived xenograft (PDX) studies showed that a tumor with higher levels of beta-catenin expression was more sensitive to HI-B1 treatment, compared to a tumor with lower expression levels of beta-catenin PMID: 29033371

15. Examination of X-ray structures of the closely related TCF3 and USF1 bound to DNA suggests TCF3 can undergo a conformational shift to preferentially bind to 5hmC while the USF1 basic region is bulkier and rigid precluding a conformation shift to bind 5hmC. These results greatly expand the regulatory DNA sequence landscape bound by TCF4. PMID: 27485769
16. Array-comparative genomic hybridization confirmed a de novo paternal deletion of the 15q11.2q13 region and exome sequencing identified a second mutational event in both girls, which was a novel variant c.145+1G>A affecting a TCF4 canonical splicing site inherited from the mosaic mother PMID: 28631899

19. Although validation in additional patients is required, the findings suggest that the dysmorphic features and severe intellectual disability characteristic of PTHS are partially rescued by overexpression of those short TCF4 transcripts encoding a nuclear localization signal, a transcription activation domain, and the basic helix-loop-helix domain. PMID: 27179618

21. We found that the genotype "AG" of rs9320010 and "GA" of rs7235757 decreased SCZ risk. In the genetic model analysis, we also observed that the allele "A" of rs9320010 and "G" of rs7235757 were inversely related with the risk of SCZ in the dominant model. Our study indicated that rs9320010, rs7235757, and rs1452787 were prominently associated with SCZ. PMID: 27103199
22. Our work suggests that DM1 patients are at risk for Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD). DMPK mutations contribute to the genetic burden of FECD but are uncommon. We establish a connection between two repeat expansion disorders converging upon RNA-MBNL1 foci and FECD. PMID: 28886202
23. We demonstrate that expansion of the CTG18.1 trinucleotide repeat in TCF4 is associated with a higher risk of corneal transplantation at a younger age, assessed for the first time in a multiracial population sample with Fuchs corneal dystrophy from the United States. PMID: 27755191
24. Corneal endothelium from FECD patients harbors a unique signature of mis-splicing events due to CTG TNR expansion in the TCF4 gene, consistent with the hypothesis that RNA toxicity contributes to the pathogenesis of FECD. PMID: 28118661
25. Results identify TCF4 as a crucial transcriptional regulator required for maintenance of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm. PMID: 27846392
26. Results show that MLL-AF9 reduces Id2 and increases E2-2 expression to drive and sustain leukemia stem cell potential in MLL-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Low expression of Id2 or of an Id2 gene signature is associated with poor prognosis in not only MLL-rearranged but also t(8;21) AML patients. PMID: 27374225
