Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) is now recognized as a precursor lesion from which lung adenocarcinomas arise and thus represents an ideal target for studying the early genetic and epigenetic alterations associated with lung tumorigenesis such as alterations of the Wnt pathway. METHODS: We assessed the level of Wnt signaling activity in lung cancer cell lines by determining the level of active...
