Induction of LEF1 by MYC activates the WNT pathway and maintains cell proliferation
17 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: While regulated WNT activity is required for normal development and stem cell maintenance, mutations that lead to constitutive activation of the WNT pathway cause cellular transformation and drive colorectal cancer. Activation of the WNT pathway ultimately leads to the nuclear translocation of β-catenin which, in complex with TCF/LEF factors, promotes the transcription of genes necessary for growth....
