Risk Factor Profiles Differ for Cancers of Different Regions of the Colorectum.

abstract：BACKGROUND & AIMS:Regenerating (Reg) gene IV is predominantly expressed in gastrointestinal cells and highly up-regulated in many gastrointestinal malignancies, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Human CRC cells expressing higher levels of Reg IV gene and its protein product (Reg IV) are resistant to conventional thera...
