Abstract excerpt
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a multistep disease that involves a two-way interaction between a complex genetic pre-disposition component, and a set of poorly understood extrinsic environmental factors. In mice, CRC can be induced by treatment with azoxymethane (AOM). Using a set of AcB/BcA recombinant congenic strains derived from CRC-susceptible A/J and CRC-resistant C57Bl/6J (B6) progenitors, we previously...
