lüll A re-evaluation of the "oncogenic" nature of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in melanoma and other cancers Lucero OM; Dawson DW; Moon RT; Chien AJCurr Oncol Rep 2010[Sep]; 12 (5): 314-8In cancer, Wnt/beta-catenin signaling is ubiquitously referred to as an "oncogenic" pathway that promotes tumor progression. This review examines how the regulation and downstream effects of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in cancer varies depending on cellular context, with a focus on malignant melanoma. We emphasize that the cellular homeostasis of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling may represent a more appropriate concept than the simplified view of the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway as either oncogenic or tumor-suppressing. Ultimately, a more refined understanding of the contextual regulation of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling will be essential for addressing if and how therapeutic targeting of this pathway could be leveraged for patient benefit.|*Signal Transduction[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Melanoma/*metabolism/pathology[MESH]|Oncogenes/*physiology[MESH]|Wnt Proteins/*metabolism[MESH]|beta Catenin/*metabolism[MESH] |
