Investigating the association between polymorphisms in connective tissue growth factor and susceptibility to colon carcinoma.

Molecular medicine reports - 1 Apr 2015

Abstract excerpt

There have been numerous studies on the gene expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in colorectal cancer, however very few have investigated polymorphisms in this gene. The present study aimed to determine whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CTGF gene are associated with a higher susceptibility to colon cancer and/or an invasive tumor growth pattern. The CTGF gene was genotyped for...
