Abstract excerpt
Many tumors are characterized by mutation-induced constitutive activation of β-catenin which promotes tumor growth and survival. Consequently, the development of specific β-catenin inhibitors for tumor therapy has come into the focus of drug development. β-Catenin was also shown to contribute to the tolerance-promoting function of unstimulated dendritic cells (DCs). In response to activation, DCs acquire potent T...
