Abstract
β-catenin/TCF4 regulates cell cycle promoting (c-MYC, CYCLIN D1) and inhibiting genes (p16INK4A) at the same time in the mesenchymally differentiated tumor cells at the front of invasion. The function of p16INK4A seems to supersede in this context thus leading to low proliferation. Moreover, these tumor cells seem to govern the outcome of colorectal cancer independently of their proliferation.
