Epithelial and stromal genetic instability contributes to genesis of colorectal adenomas
14 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Previously, we indicated that stromal genetic instability might contribute to tumorigenesis of both sporadic and ulcerative colitis associated colorectal adenocarcinomas. Considering the established adenoma-adenocarcinoma sequence, in this study we analysed genetic instability in colorectal adenoma cells and surrounding stroma. METHODS: In 164 colorectal tumours (34 hyperplastic polyps, 38 tubular...
