THE GENETIC BASIS FOR INACTIVATION OF WNT PATHWAY IN HUMAN OSTEOSARCOMA

Most cases of colorectal cancer (CRC) are initiated by inactivation mutations in the APC gene, which is a negative regulator of the Wnt-β-catenin pathway. Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) inherit a germline mutation in one APC allele, and loss of the second allele leads to the deve[r]

Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is a heterogeneous tumor group, and little is known about molecular target therapy for UPS. Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is an expressed chaperone that refolds certain denatured proteins under stress conditions.

Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms of the pancreas (SPN) are rare tumors affecting mainly women. They show an activating mutation in CTNNB1, the gene for β-catenin, and consequently an overactivation of the Wnt/ β-catenin pathway. This signaling pathway is implied in the pathogenesis of various aggress[r]

Discussion
The PI3K/AKT pathway is frequently activated in hu- man carcinomas by oncogenic mutations of the PIK3CA gene encoding for the α isoform of the PI3K p110 sub- unit (24). Only a few studies have focused on the PI3K/ AKT[r]

Genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 has led to the accurate identification of individuals at higher risk of cancer and the development of new therapies.
