Hypoxia-Driven Gene Expression Is an Independent Prognostic Factor in Stage II and III Colon Cancer Patients
31 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Hypoxia is considered a major microenvironmental factor influencing cancer behavior. Our aim was to develop a hypoxia-based gene score that could identify high and low risk within stage II and III colon cancer patients. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Differential gene expression of CaCo-2 colon cancer cells cultured in chronic hypoxia versus normoxia was tested for correlation with prognostic variables in...
