## Abstract We evaluated the role of polyamines in arginineβdependent intestinal tumorigenesis in __Apc^Min^__^/+^ mice. Arginine is a substrate for ornithine synthesis and thus can influence polyamine production. Supplementing the diet with arginine increased intestinal and colonic polyamine level

## Abstract The Apc^Min/+^ mouse is a popular animal model for studies of human colon cancer, but the molecular changes associated with neoplasia in this system have only been partially characterized. Our aim was to identify novel genes involved in tumorigenesis in this model. RNA from intestinal a
## Abstract Oncogenic __Kβras__ mutations are frequently observed in colon cancers and contribute to transformed growth. Oncogenic __Kβras__ is detected in aberrant crypt foci (ACF), precancerous colonic lesions, demonstrating that acquisition of a __Kβras__ mutation is an early event in colon carc
