Pleiotropic Effects of PPARD Accelerate Colorectal Tumorigenesis, Progression, and Invasion
24 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract APC mutations activate aberrant β-catenin signaling to drive initiation of colorectal cancer; however, colorectal cancer progression requires additional molecular mechanisms. PPAR-delta (PPARD), a downstream target of β-catenin, is upregulated in colorectal cancer. However, promotion of intestinal tumorigenesis following deletion of PPARD in Apcmin mice has raised questions about the effects of PPARD on...
