Relationship of telomere length in colorectal cancer patients with cancer phenotype and patient prognosis
16 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Telomeres, repetitive DNA capping ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are important in the maintenance of genomic integrity. Perturbed telomeres are common features of many human malignancies, including colorectal cancer. METHODS: Telomere length (TL), measured by a Monochrome Multiplex Real-Time qPCR, was investigated in tumour tissues, adjacent mucosa, and blood from patients with colorectal cancer with...
