Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) development is generally accepted as a sequential process, with genetic mutations determining phenotypic tumor progression. However, matching genetic profiles with histological transition requires the analyses of temporal samples from the same patient at key stages of progression. RESULTS: Here, we compared the genetic profiles of 34 early carcinomas with their respective...
