Targeting of β-Catenin Reverses Radioresistance of Cervical Cancer with the PIK3CA-E545K Mutation.

abstract：:Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) and its receptor, c-Met, have been implicated in the growth and progression of a variety of solid human tumors. Thus, inhibiting HGF/SF:c-Met signaling may provide a novel therapeutic approach for treating human tumors. We have generated and characterized fully human mo...
