Significance of Increased Apoptosis and Bax Expression in Human Small Intestinal Adenocarcinoma
3 Sept 2009
Abstract excerpt
Human small intestine accounts for 75% of the gastrointestinal (GI) length but for only 1-5% of GI tumors. The reason remains as yet unclearly understood. Our study was designed to examine whether increased apoptosis and expression of related genes/proteins, especially those of the Bcl-2 family, contribute to this difference. For this purpose, 77 samples from patients were examined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl...
