TL;DR: In this paper, the JCV T-Ag (T-Ag) was found to mediate metastasis in colorectal cancer cells through increased migration and invasion, which may partially be mediated through the AKT/MAPK signaling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of sulindac-induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest
TL;DR: It is shown that in murine thymocytes, sulindac sulfide-induced cell death is p53, bax, Fas, and FasL independent, which suggests that sulindAC may selectively target premalignant cells with cell cycle checkpoint deficits.
Book ChapterDOI
Cancer of the Colon and Gastrointestinal Tract
TL;DR: Several genes have been associated with an increased risk for pancreatic cancer, most of which produce a phenotypically identifiable disease, including familial pancreatitis (PRSS1), the familial atypical multiple mole/melanoma syndrome, FAMMM (p16), Peutz–Jeghers syndrome, hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, Lynch syndrome and FAP.
Screening for Colorectal Cancer: Analysis of Evidence and Cost-Effectiveness
TL;DR: A number of screening approaches have been shown to decrease colon cancer‐related mortality and are cost-effective and strategies to implement effective screening using the current tools available are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bone Morphogenetic Protein and Activin Signaling in Colorectal Cancer
TL;DR: Researchers are actively investigating cellular and signaling mechanisms by which BMP and activin may initiate and drive proliferation and allow cells to exhibit metastatic properties.
