Abstract excerpt
Evidence suggests that metastatic colorectal cancer patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) experience a poorer prognosis in contrast to their non-diabetic counterparts. Considering the multifactorial genetic nature of colon cancer development, we examined whether gene polymorphisms associated with T2D could affect the clinical outcome of metastatic colon cancer. Using in silico analysis, we evaluated gene variants...
