Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Genetics of Colorectal Cancer
TL;DR: Over the past three decades, molecular genetic studies have revealed some critical mutations underlying the pathogenesis of the sporadic and inherited forms of colorectal cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fibroblast Growth Factor 9 Has Oncogenic Activity and Is a Downstream Target of Wnt Signaling in Ovarian Endometrioid Adenocarcinomas
TL;DR: The findings support the notion that FGF9 is a key factor contributing to the cancer phenotype of OEAs carrying Wnt/beta-catenin pathway defects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transient activation of β-catenin signaling in cutaneous keratinocytes is sufficient to trigger the active growth phase of the hair cycle in mice
TL;DR: The data lend strong support to the notion that a Wnt/beta-catenin signal operating on hair follicle precursor cells serves as a crucial proximal signal for the telogen-anagen transition.
Journal Article
Diverse Mechanisms of β-Catenin Deregulation in Ovarian Endometrioid Adenocarcinomas
TL;DR: The findings demonstrate frequent defects of the Wnt signaling pathway in a particular subtype of ovarian carcinomas, i.e., OEAs, may also result from mutations in the APC, AXIN1, and AXIN2 genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that IL-17RA signals directly within transformed colonic epithelial cells (enterocytes) to promote early tumor development and is established as a therapeutic targets in colorectal cancer.
