Journal Article
Mucinous carcinomas of the colon and rectum. An analysis of 62 stage B and C lesions.
TL;DR: It is speculated that patients with stage B mucinous carcinoma may have a worse prognosis owing to the extra-cellular mucin, which may make a complete surgical extirpation more difficult.
Journal Article
Differential production of high molecular weight sulfated glycoproteins in normal colonic mucosa, primary colon carcinoma, and metastases.
TL;DR: The amount of peak I significantly decreased in the order of normal mucosa greater than primary tumors greater than metastases, while the amount ofpeak II did not significantly change among the tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The effects of progressive malignant disease on gut/liver glutamines metabolism were studied in order to gain further insight into the altered glutamine metabolism that characterizes the host with cancer and to further elucidate the causes and consequences of glutamine depletion in tumor-bearing rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of recurrence after local excision and postoperative chemoradiation therapy of adenocarcinoma of the rectum.
TL;DR: Local excision and postoperative radiotherapy result in adequate local control of early stage adenocarcinoma of the rectum and showed that only tumor stage and margin status were predictors of local recurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lactose-binding lectin expression in human colorectal carcinomas. Relation to tumor progression.
Reuben Lotan,Yoshifumi Matsushita,David W. Ohannesian,Dunia Carralero,David M. Ota,Karen R. Cleary,Garth L. Nicolson,Tatsuro Irimura +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicated that the relative amount of the L-31 lectin increases as the colorectal cancer progresses to a more malignant stage.
