Regulation of β-Catenin by a Novel Nongenomic Action of Thyroid Hormone β Receptor
13 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
We previously created a knock-in mutant mouse harboring a dominantly negative mutant thyroid hormone receptor beta (TRbeta(PV/PV) mouse) that spontaneously develops a follicular thyroid carcinoma similar to human thyroid cancer. We found that beta-catenin, which plays a critical role in oncogenesis, was highly elevated in thyroid tumors of TRbeta(PV/PV) mice. We sought to understand the molecular basis underlying...
