Functional characterization of E- and P-cadherin in invasive breast cancer cells.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with metastatic disease can become cured if neoadjuvant treatment can enable a resection. The search for predictive biomarkers is often performed on primary tumours tissue. In order to assess the effectiveness of tailored treatment in regard to the primary tumour the differen...
