The local immunological microenvironment in colorectal cancer as a prognostic factor for treatment decisions in the clinic
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analysis of the local immunological microenvironment in colorectal cancer lesions yielded prognostic markers. Harnessing these insights for clinical application however requires the use of sophisticated technology and algorithms, especially the robust and reproducible quantification of immune cells. These technologies are available and will allow individualized treatment decisions beyond the current standard.

Evaluation of preoperative elevation of serum c-reactive protein as an indicator for prognosis of colorectal cancer
Abstract Background : Cancer has not been elucidated in colerectal site. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a product synthesized in hepatocytes and has been reported to be up-regulated by such proinflammatory cytokines as interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF). The significance of a preoperative serum elevation was evaluated using CRP as a predictive i...

Background:Long non-coding RNAs, as a big part of non-coding RNAs, are considered functionally more than past. These transcripts could be involved in carcinogenesis. SNHG6, as a long non-coding RNA, has been reported to be expressed more in colorectal cancer tissues than non-cancerous ones. Colorectal cancer as a malignancy needs fast prognostic and diagnostic methods for well...

Background: Bax and Bcl-2 are the major members of Bcl-2 family whose play a key role in tumor progression or inhibition of intrinsic apoptotic pathway triggered by mitochondrial dysfunction. Therefore, the balance between pro- and anti-apoptotic members of this family can determine the cellular fate.
