Repression of the Wnt pathway effector TCF7L2 reverses lethal cachexia in mice with intestinal cancers
2024-11-25
Abstract excerpt
Hyper-activation of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway drives small intestine and colon tumors. As the major Wnt pathway effector in healthy intestines, TCF7L2 is a suspected oncogene in both cancer types. However, this has been challenging to verify because Tcf7l2 knockout is lethal. To circumvent lethality, we generated a novel transgenic mouse that allows dose-dependent, systemic, inducible and reversible rep...
