Gene mutation found to lead to a colon cancer in JewsALEX DOMINGUEZ
is a cell surface protein that binds epidermal growth factor. The binding of a protein to the EGFR induces cell proliferation (Mourtzikouet al., 2012). Blood levels of EGFR were determined to be lower in cancer patients. EGFR is also found inC. elegansas a product of thelet-23gene family...
mutation), and formed polyps that may start cancer, a couple of which reside on the left side of your colon. You are either asymptomatic or unchecked by mistaking cautionary signs as normal. Fortunately, one day these polyps
Defect Tied to Doubling Of Risk for Colon Cancer; 6 Percent of U.S. Jews Have the Gene MutationRick Weiss
Mina53 is a novel Myc target gene that we previously demonstrated to be involved in cell proliferation. We studied, here, the expression of Mina53 in colon cancer to examine its possible role in carcinogenesis. We generated a specific monoclonal anti-human Mina53 antibody and found that colon ...
Multiple gene-expression-based subtypes have been proposed for the molecular subdivision of colon cancer in the last decade. We aimed to cross-validate these classifiers to explore their concordance and their power to predict survival. A gene-chip-based database comprising 2,166 samples from 12 in...
Colon cancer is a complex disease with many risk factors, such as genetics, lifestyles, and dietary habits. Among them, inherited gene mutation, which can pass through family members, is one critical factor to increase one’s colon cancer risk. A common colon cancer feature is the intra-...
Colon cancer arises from the accumulation of multiple genetic and epigenetic alterations to normal colonic tissue. microRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding regulatory RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. Differential miRNA expression in cancer versus normal tissue is a common event ...
