Abstract:

Wnt signaling pathway participates in the physiological process of cell growth,differentiation,migration and apoptosis.Its abnormal activation is closely related to the tumorigenesis and progression.Wnt signaling is also known to regulate the process of proliferation,angiogenesis,adhesion,invasion and metastasis of tumor cells in non-small-cell lung cancer.There are a lot of members in Wnt signaling pathway and their expression levels affect the prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer.It plays an instructive role in the individualized treatment of non-small-cell-lung cancer to lucubrate the relation between Wnt signaling pathway and the tumorigenesis and progression of non-small-cell lung cancer.

Key words: Wnt signaling pathway, Non-small-cell lung cancer, β-catenin, Tumorigenesis, Prognosis
