Wnt signaling in granulosa cell tumors of the ovary

Authors

Abstract

Granulosa cell tumors (GCT), a malignant type of sex-cord stromal tumor, account for approximately 2-5% of all ovarian malignancies. They are often identified before they have spread beyond the ovary, but advanced disease can be quite challenging to treat. Wnt signaling has been suggested to contribute to the formation of GCT. We hypothesized Wnt signaling was involved in human GCT.

Keywords: Granulosa cell tumor, ovarian neoplasms, Wnt signaling
