abstract：:The mammalian homeobox transcription factor CDX2 has key roles in intestinal development and differentiation. Heterozygous Cdx2 mice develop one or two benign hamartomas in the proximal colon, whereas heterozygous Apc(Delta716) mice develop numerous adenomatous polyps, mostly in the small intestine. Here we show that ...
