Downregulated SPINK4 is associated with poor survival in colorectal cancer.

abstract：BACKGROUND:It remains presently unclear whether disease progression in colorectal carcinoma (CRC), from early, to invasive and metastatic forms, is associated to a gradual increase in genetic instability and to a scheme of sequentially occurring Copy Number Alterations (CNAs). METHODS:In this work we set to determine ...
