Carcinogenic process of canine prostate
Wnt canonical pathway and its comparative study

canine prostate carcinoma, compared oncology, dogs, WNT pathwayAbstract
Prostate of dogs have similar lesions to that observed in human and is the only species other
than man which frequently displays spontaneous prostatic tumors. In this way, the dog
represent an important model of studying different prostatic affections. The prostate cancer
development is multifactorial and among them, genetic and epigenetic alterations are
involved. The dog can be a natural and spontaneous model to study preneoplastic and
neoplastic lesions, with potential future studies as models for pre-clinical tests. One of
important pathway to prostate carcinogenesis is beta catenin dependent canonical WNT
pathway. In this paper, we review the role of this pathway in prostate carcinogenesis,
important in humans and dogs, besides some regulatory proteins involved in this pathway
