Identification of the angiogenic gene signature induced by EGF and hypoxia in colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is characterised by hypoxia, which activates gene transcription through hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF), as well as by expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptors, targeting of which has been demonstrated to provide therapeutic benefit in CRC.
