USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy and the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. CRC is a life-threatening disease due to therapy-resistant cancerous cells. The exact mechanisms of cell growth, survival, metastasis and inter & intracellular signaling pathways involved in CRC are still a significant challenge. Moreover, the treatment of metastatic CRC considered palliative for many years aimed for an improved life, with little hope of a cure, highlighting the need for developing novel targeted therapy for CRC. Hence, investigating new molecular mechanism(s) that lead to colorectal carcinogenesis may give insight into the therapeutic target. …
