Genetic variations in colorectal cancer risk and clinical outcome.

World journal of gastroenterology - 21 Apr 2014

Abstract excerpt

Colorectal cancer (CRC) has an apparent hereditary component, as evidenced by the well-characterized genetic syndromes and family history associated with the increased risk of this disease. However, in a large fraction of CRC cases, no known genetic syndrome or family history can be identified, suggesting the presence of "missing heritability" in CRC etiology. The genome-wide association study (GWAS) platform has...
