Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Neuroepithelial Patched-Induced Apoptosis by Sonic Hedgehog

TL;DR: It is shown that Patched induces apoptotic cell death unless its ligand Shh is present to block the signal, and the blockade of Ptc-induced cell death partly rescues the chick spinal cord defect provoked by Shh deprivation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Netrin-1 controls colorectal tumorigenesis by regulating apoptosis.

TL;DR: It is shown that inhibition of cell death by enforced expression of netrin-1 in mouse gastrointestinal tract leads to the spontaneous formation of hyperplastic and neoplastic lesions, and it is demonstrated that netin-1 can promote intestinal tumour development, probably by regulating cell survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

The netrin-1 receptors UNC5H are putative tumor suppressors controlling cell death commitment.

TL;DR: It is shown here that the expression of the human UNC5A, UNC5B, or UNC5C is down-regulated in multiple cancers including colorectal, breast, ovary, uterus, stomach, lung, or kidney cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inactivation of the UNC5C Netrin-1 Receptor Is Associated With Tumor Progression in Colorectal Malignancies

TL;DR: It is shown that UNC5C expression is down-regulated in a large fraction of human colorectal cancers, mainly through promoter methylation, and in mice, inactivation of UNC5C is associated with increased intestinal tumor progression and a decrease in tumor cell apoptosis.
