Colonic Mucosal Transcriptomic Changes in Patients with Long-Duration Ulcerative Colitis Revealed Colitis-Associated Cancer Pathways
11 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Patients with ulcerative colitis [UC] with long disease duration have a higher risk of developing colitis-associated cancer [CAC] compared with patients with short-duration UC. The aim of this study was to identify transcriptomic differences associated with the duration of UC disease. METHODS: We conducted transcriptome profiling on 32 colonic biopsies [11 long-duration UC, ≥20 years; and 21...
