WNT-pathway activation in IBD-associated colorectal carcinogenesis: potential biomarkers for colonic surveillance.
1 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The Wnt-pathway dominates the sporadic carcinogenesis whereas p53 plays a pivotal role in the colitis-associated counterpart. The expression of Wnt-signaling proteins and p53 during colitis-associated carcinogenesis was determined. METHODS: A tissue microarray was constructed with colonic samples from 5 groups of patients: controls (C, n=10), IBD without neoplasia (IBD, n=12), non-dysplastic IBD with...
