Abstract excerpt

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the United States. Although both genetic and environmental factors play a role in colorectal tumorigenesis, recent advances in genetics have more clearly defined the impact of inheritance in the multistep process of the disease. Researchers have identified single genes that confer a susceptibility to familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and hereditary...
