<i>MUC12</i> mRNA expression is an independent marker of prognosis in stage II and stage III colorectal cancer
16 Feb 2010
Abstract excerpt
Distant metastasis is the major cause of death in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. To identify genes influencing the prognosis of patients with CRC, we compared gene expression in primary tumors with and without distant metastasis using an oligonucleotide microarray. We also examined the expression of the candidate gene in 100 CRC patients by quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR and studied the...
