Abstract excerpt
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world. There are two major distinct precursor lesion pathways: the traditional adenoma–carcinoma pathway leading to most cases CRC, and the serrated neoplasia pathway. SMAD4 gene is involved in adenoma–carcinoma pathway. The protein encoded by the SMAD4 gene is a key downstream signaling mediator in the TGFβ pathway. This pathway has tumor-suppressor f...
