Abstract excerpt
Genomic imprinting of insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) has been shown to play an important role in the development of Wilms' tumor and adult cancers including lung and esophageal cancer. Although IGF2 has been reported to be overexpressed in colorectal cancer, the status of this gene has not been fully elucidated. To clarify genomic imprinting of IGF2 in colorectal cancer, we examined loss of imprinting (LOI)...
