TGFB1 and malignant colon neoplasm: Therefore, to assess the effects of global TGFβ signaling deficiency in a more clinically relevant model of sporadic colon cancer, TS4-Cre mice were crossed to those with a floxed APCΔ468 construct (Ts4-Cre/APCfl/fl or cAPC) to restrict mutant APC expression to the colon, allowing for a more faithful recapitulation of APC mutations as they most often present in the clinic.
