Abstract excerpt
We have analysed the pattern of beta-catenin expression by immunohistochemistry in mice singly or multiply mutant for Apc, p53 and Msh2. We observed increased expression of beta-catenin in all intestinal lesions arising on an ApcMin+/- background. In all categories of lesion studied mosaic patterns of beta-catenin expression were observed, with the proportion of cells showing enhanced expression decreasing with...
