Examination of the expression levels of MACC1, Filamin A and FBXW7 genes in colorectal cancer patients.

Objective: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common type of cancer observed in cancer-related mortality because it has a high metastasis ratio. This study aims to investigate the expression levels of several genes, including metastasis-related colon cancer 1 (MACC1), Filamin A (FLNA), F-box/WD repeat-containing protein 7 (FBXW7), which has an important role in cell signaling, migration and adhesion through the remodeling of the cell skeleton.

Methods: In this study, 21 patients with a precise diagnosis of CRC and 21 controls were included.
