Abstract excerpt
Dysregulation of the WNT/beta-catenin pathway is thought to contribute to prostate cancer progression. Mutations of beta-catenin occurring in 5-7% of advanced prostate cancers may act by stimulating TCF-dependent and/or androgen receptor (AR)-dependent transcription. Using a reporter gene approach we found overexpressed mutated beta-catenin to enhance AR-regulated probasin-promoter activity in the AR-positive...
