Abstract excerpt
Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) gene mutations are responsible for the onset of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and sporadic colorectal cancer and have been associated with miRNAs dysregulation. The capacity of miR-155, a cancer-related miRNA, to target components of the WNT/β-CATENIN pathway suggests that APC gene mutations, controlling miRNAs expression, may critically regulate WNT/β-CATENIN signaling. To...
