Key Target in Molecular Pathway that Initiates Colon Cancer
Johns Hopkins MedicineIn the latest of a series of discoveries about colon cancer genes, researchers at the Johns Hopkins Oncology Center and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute have discovered a connection between two of them, APC and c-MYC, that conspires to initiate almost all colon cancers. Their findings are reported in the September 4, 1998, issue of SCIENCE.
