Impact of mutant β-catenin on ABCB1 expression and therapy response in colon cancer cells
29 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancers are often chemoresistant toward antitumour drugs that are substrates for ABCB1-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR). Activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway is frequently observed in colorectal cancers. This study investigates the impact of activated, gain-of-function β-catenin on the chemoresistant phenotype. METHODS: The effect of mutant (mut) β-catenin on ABCB1 expression and...
