Wnt ligands influence tumour initiation by controlling the number of intestinal stem cells
Wnt ligands are essential for intestinal homoeostasis and stem cell maintenance. Here, the authors show that reduction in Wnt secretion reduces the number of intestinal stem cells; this results in rapid fixation of mutated stem cells and accelerated adenoma formation due to lack of cell competition.
