CENPI Drives Breast Cancer via Wnt/β-Catenin
2026-09-08
Wu et al. identify centromere protein I (CENPI) as an overexpressed breast cancer driver and connect its activity to Wnt/β-catenin signaling. By combining patient datasets, tissue staining, cellular assays, xenografts, RNA sequencing, and pathway reporters, the study provides a mechanistic framework for evaluating CENPI as a biomarker and potential therapeutic target.
