Thesis
Elucidating the non-apoptotic role of the caspases in the Drosophila intestinal system
- Abstract:
-
The deregulation of caspase activity and stem cell properties are often correlated with the appearance and propagation of cancer, including colorectal cancer. However, the caspase-dependent regulation of the intestinal system remains poorly understood. Taking advantage of the powerful genetic tractability of Drosophila melanogaster, I aimed to decipher the functional role of the caspases within the intestinal system, in addition to their role in tumour formation. In this thesis, I...
