Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays an important role in tumorigenesis. Variations in the DNA sequence of the gene EGF can lead to alterations in EGF activity, which is suspected to influence tumor progression. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the influence of EGF 61A/G polymorphism on the recurrence of liver metastases after hepatic surgery in patients with colorectal cancer. METHODS:...
