Abstract excerpt
More than 20 years ago, the oncogenicity of a Wnt ligand was revealed in a series of experiments originating with random proviral integration in mice. The significance of Wnt signaling in human cancer has since been buttressed by the identification of mutations in genes coding for the Wnt pathway components Axin, APC, and beta-catenin. This review summarizes the reported genetic defects in the Wnt pathway, with...
