Defining the molecular mechanisms involved in cancer formation and progression is still a major challenge in colorectal-cancer research. Our strategy was to characterize genes whose expression is altered during colorectal carcinogenesis. To this end, the phenotype of a colorectal tumour was previous
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) exposes patients to an increased risk of colorectal cancer (i-CRC) and differences between i-CRC and sporadic colorectal cancer (s-CRC) pathogenesis were reported. In s-CRC, studies indicate abnormalities in the tumor-suppressor gene Cdx2. This study comp
## Abstract Ectopic expression of CDX2, a caudalβrelated homeobox protein, is known to be associated with the development of intestinal metaplasia in the stomach and gastric carcinogenesis. Previously, we reported that DNA methylation was partly responsible for __CDX2__ silencing in gastric cancer
