Clinical Relevance of Telomere Status and Telomerase Activity in Colorectal Cancer

25 Feb 2016

Abstract excerpt

The role of telomeres and telomerase in colorectal cancer (CRC) is well established as the major driving force in generating chromosomal instability. However, their potential as prognostic markers remains unclear. We investigated the outcome implications of telomeres and telomerase in this tumour type. We considered telomere length (TL), ratio of telomere length in cancer to non-cancer tissue (T/N ratio),...
