Oncogenic KRAS and p53 Loss Drive Gastric Tumorigenesis in Mice That Can Be Attenuated by E-Cadherin Expression
1 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Gastric adenocarcinoma is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, but no models exist to readily investigate distant metastases that are mainly responsible for mortality in this disease. Here we report the development of a genetically engineered mouse model of gastric adenocarcinoma tumorigenesis based on KrasG12D expression plus inactivation of E-cadherin (Cdh1) and p53 in the gastric...
