Description
Wnt/-catenin signaling is activated in colorectal cancer (CRC) and is involved in CRC growth. Tankyrase, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family member, destabilizes Axin and positively regulates the Wnt/-catenin signaling. Tankyrase inhibitors efficiently suppress CRC cell proliferation. We established 320-IWR cells, which showed resistance to tankyrase inhibitor IWR-1, from human CRC COLO-320DM cells. We analyzed gene expression profile of 320-IWR cells (320IWR_1,_2) and parental COLO-320DM cells (COLO320_1,_2).
