R-Spondin chromosome rearrangements drive Wnt-dependent tumour initiation and maintenance in the intestine

Recent evidence suggests thatEIF3E–RSPO2 and PTPRK–RSPO3gene fusions promote colorectal cancer. Here, using CRISPR-mediated genome editing, the authors show that endogenous Rspo2 or Rspo3 chromosome rearrangements result in intestinal tumours extremely sensitive to Wnt ligand inhibition.
