The epigenetic regulator Mll1 is required for Wnt-driven intestinal tumorigenesis and cancer stemness
Intestinal cancer stem cells (CSC) are associated with colon cancer. Here, the authors show that Wnt/beta-catenin signalling in CSC requires the epigenetic regulator Mll1 to promote stemness and tumourigenesis in murine and human colon cancer models.
