(Pro)renin receptor promotes colorectal cancer through the Wnt/beta-catenin signalling pathway despite constitutive pathway component mutations

Although constitutive activating mutations in the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway are important for colorectal cancer development, canonical signalling through Wnt ligands is essential for β-catenin activation. Here, we investigated the role of (pro)renin receptor ((P)RR), a component of the Wnt receptor complex, in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer
