Abstract excerpt
Perturbations to the Wnt signaling pathway have been implicated in a large proportion of human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). Activating beta-catenin mutations and loss of function mutations in Axin1 are thought to be functionally equivalent. We examined the Wnt pathway in HCC by comparing the expression of beta-catenin target genes and the level of beta-catenin-dependent transcriptional activation, in 45 HCC...
