Deletions in the AXIN1 gene have been identified in 2 hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. These deletions, which remove the N-terminal exons of the gene, compromise AXIN1 expression and result in elevated expression of a TCF-dependent reporter (Satoh et al, 2000, reviewed in Salahshor and Woodgett, 2005).
