Right and left-sided colon cancers - specificity of molecular mechanisms in tumorigenesis and progression
Abstract Background Given the differences in embryonic origin, vascular and nervous supplies, microbiotic burden, and main physiological functions of left and right colons, tumor location is increasingly suggested to dictate tumor behavior affecting pathology, progression and prognosis. Right-sided...
