Scientists At University Of Basel Target Colon Cancer
Tumor-host interaction at the invasive front of colorectal cancer represents a critical interface encompassing a dynamic process of de- differentiation of colorectal carcinoma cells known as epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). EMT can be identified histologically by the presence of tumor budding, a feature which can be highly specific for tumors showing an infiltrating tumor growth pattern, scientists in Basel, Switzerland report.
