Serum Annexin A2 Levels in Patients with Colon Cancer in Comparison to Healthy Controls and in Relation to Tumor Pathology

摘要

BackgroundThe deregulation and localization of the Annexins is consistently reported to have close relation to tumor cell malignancy, invasion, and metastasis as well as clinical progression of tumors. This study aimed to evaluate serum Annexin A2 (Anx A2) levels in patients with colon cancer in comparison to healthy controls and in relation to demographics and tumor pathology.
