Abstract excerpt
Although the APC protein is known to participate in cellular proliferation and apoptosis, APC mutations have been thought to play a major role in the early stage of colorectal tumorigenesis. The somatic APC mutation of exon 15 was assessed to determine its impact on various stages of colorectal tumorigenesis. The colorectal neoplastic tissues of serial array studied included sporadic adenomas (group 1, n = 36),...
