Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the expression of E-cadherin, a protein crucial for cell adhesion, in 94 colorectal cancer (CRC) samples, focusing on differences between the tumor center and the infiltrating front.
- - E-cadherin levels were found to be significantly lower at the infiltrating front compared to the tumor center, especially in late-stage (TNM III+IV) and high-grade tumors.
- - The findings suggest that reduced E-cadherin expression at the infiltrating front may indicate epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process linked to tumor progression, and these trends are consistent with observations in CRC from other populations.
