The prognostication of colorectal cancer (CRC) has traditionally relied on staging as defined
by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) and American Joint Committee on …

The colon is derived from the embryological midgut and hindgut separately, with the right
colon and left colon having different features with regards to both anatomical and …

Results: On average, RCC exhibited a more advanced N stage, increased tumor size, more
frequently poorly differentiated tumors, more harvested lymph nodes, and more positivity of …

Background/Aim: About 15-20% of colorectal cancers (CRCs) have deficiency in a mismatch
repair (MMR) protein. MMR has a high level of microsatellite instability (MSI-H). We have …

Abstract Background/Aims: Left-and right-sided colon cancers are considered to be two
different diseases and have altered outcomes. However, specific molecules to predict the …

There are two commonly accepted methods for detecting microsatellite status. One is to
detect amplified microsatellite loci by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the other is to …

Introduction For the past two decades, microsatellite instability (MSI) has been reported as a
robust clinical biomarker associated with survival advantage attributed to its immunogenicity …

Background Up to 15% of colorectal cancers exhibit microsatellite instability (MSI), where
errors in replication go unchecked due to defects in the mismatch repair system. This study …

Background MicroRNAs (miRNA) and other small RNAs are frequently dysregulated in
cancer and are promising biomarkers for colon cancer. Here we profile human, virus and …

Acetyl-CoA synthetase-2 is an emerging key enzyme for cancer metabolism, which supplies
acetyl-CoA for tumor cells by capturing acetate as a carbon source under stressed …
