Abstract excerpt
Tbx3 encodes a transcriptional repressor that is important for diverse patterning events during development, and Tbx3 mutation in humans causes the ulnar-mammary syndrome. Here, we describe the identification of Tbx3 in array-based search for genes downstream Wnt/beta-catenin that are implicated in liver tumorigenesis. Overexpression of Tbx3 is closely associated with the mutational status of beta-catenin in...
