Abstract excerpt
Mutational activation of beta-catenin and cyclin D1 over-expression are a frequent change in mouse hepatic tumors. Although activated beta-catenin may bind to T cell factor (TCF) family members and transcriptionally activate the cyclin D1 gene, either beta-catenin or cyclin D1 may be activated by various pathways independently of beta-catenin mutations. In this study, we investigated beta-catenin activation and...
