Popis: |
The molecular events that contribute to the progression of colon cancer are beginning to unravel. An initiating and probably obligatory event is the oncogenic activation of beta-catenin. This can come about by the loss of its negative regulator the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein, or by mutations in the beta-catenin gene that result in a more stable protein product. The interaction between APC and beta-catenin, and additional proteins that affect assembly and signaling along this pathway, are discussed. |
