Abstract excerpt
The potential correlation of E-cadherin reduction and Wnt2 up-regulation in determining the intracellular distribution of beta-catenin in gastric cancers was investigated by the methods of frozen tissue array-based immunohistochemistry, Western blot and RT-PCR analysis. It was revealed that membranous E-cadherin was reduced frequently in the two major subtypes of gastric cancer (intestinal gastric cancer, i-GC...
