Abstract
The extracellular-signal-regulated-kinase (ERK) signaling pathway is frequently deregulated in tumors.The objective of this study is to investigate the association between ERK2/β-catenin in risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) corelated with CSN6. elevated CSN6 expression was positively correlated with ERK2/ β-catenin activation and overexpression in esophageal cancer. These results suggested that the ERK2/β-catenin/CSN6 interactions might play vital roles in the progression on esophageal cancer.
Keywords: Esophageal carcinoma; CSN6; ERK2; β-catenin
