Mechanisms of carcinogenesis in colorectal cancer

Abstract: Colorectal cancer should be considered as a heterogeneous disease that leads to many different genetic changes, resulting in the existence of molecular subtypes that differ in response to the same treatment and have different prognosis. For this reason, research into new, sensitive, and specific molecular prognostic factors has been intensified. It is now clear that there are many pathways leading to tumour formation in this organ because only about 10% of intestinal tumours have mutations in three "classic" F… Show more

“…Metabolic syndrome is also associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular morbidity, and mortality [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Furthermore, there is an association between MetS and increased total cancer mortality [8,9]. The incidence of metabolic syndrome and the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying its development are still not fully understood.…”
