Genetic reconstitution of tumorigenesis in primary intestinal cells
17 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
Animal models for human colorectal cancer recapitulate multistep carcinogenesis that is typically initiated by activation of the Wnt pathway. Although potential roles of both genetic and environmental modifiers have been extensively investigated in vivo, it remains elusive whether epithelial cells definitely require interaction with stromal cells or microflora for tumor development. Here we show that tumor...
