Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: To investigate whether mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades might play a role in the progression of colon cancer, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal regulating kinase (ERK) activity during colonic tumorigenesis were examined. METHODS: The 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced colon carcinoma model was used to study the activation of these kinases during intestinal...
