Sequencing analysis identifies genomic alterations in colorectal precancers

Tuesday, May 24, 2016 - 10:00 in Biology & Nature

Whole-exome sequencing of both colorectal adenomas (precancers often called polyps) and intestinal mucosa at risk for developing into adenomas from patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) has generated a comprehensive picture of the genomic alterations that characterize the evolution of normal mucosa to precancer.
