In our attempt to better understand the molecular mecanisms in breast carcinogenesis, we studied the role of the tumor suppressor gene WWOX that encompasses the common fragile site FRD16D. We have identified actors of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway as new interactors of WWOX: Dvl-2, BCL9 and BCL9-2 just as HDAC3. We show, for the first time, that WWOX is an inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Our results suggest that WWOX binds Dvl-2 in the cytoplasm and inhibits BCL9 and BCL9-2’s transcriptionnal activities. Moreover, we have shown that HDAC3 inhibits as well the transcriptional activity of BCL9-2 by recruiting it on WWOX. We then demonstrated that HDAC3 acts independently of its deacetylase activity. The inhibition of the Wnt/b-catenin pat...
