The main issue addressed in this thesis is how different levels of signaling activity of the Wnt and TGF-β/BMP pathways can affect transcriptional responses in particular relevant for self-renewal and differentiation both in homeostasis and in cancer. Chapter 1 presents an overview of the existent literature leading to the formulation of the hypothesis that Apc/Wnt pathway acts in a dosage-dependent manner both in normal and neoplastic tissues.
