Abstract:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common gastrointestinal malignancy and one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Truncating mutations of the tumor suppressor APC that lead to deregulated WNT signaling are driver mutations in CRC. APC and its downstream effector, β-catenin, are regarded as non-druggable, prompting the search for novel interactions essential for survival of cells that have lost APC function. Here, we have restored doxycycline-inducible expression of full-length APC (APC wt) in SW4… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
