Abstract excerpt
Aberrant activation of the Wnt signaling pathway has been reported in different human tumor types, including malignant melanomas. We investigated 37 malignant melanomas (15 primary tumors and 22 metastases) for alterations of 4 genes encoding members of this pathway, i.e., CTNNB1 (beta-catenin ge...
