The recent characterization of the CpG island Methylator Phenotype (CIMP), found in 20 to 30% of colorectal tumor samples, confirms the important role of epigenetic mechanisms on the pathogenesis of this tumor type. This phenotype is characterized by the frequent and tumor specific hypermethylation of different genomic regions, and it is associated with clinical and pathological features …
The colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant neoplasm diagnosticated in the world. The CRC was considered a predominantly genetic disease, characterized by the accumulation of genetic changes that confer proliferative advantages to a particular cell clone. However, subsequent studies showed that epigenetic mechanisms may also be deregulated in tumor and lead to its form…
Colorectal cancer is one of the malignant diseases most frequently found in the world and, although genetically it is one of the most studied tumor types, its treatment hasn't changed much in the last years. With the development of new sequencing technologies, it became possible to analyze the sequence from all known genes in the human genome. Recent studies showed that, in average, one c…
