Expression of Annexin A5 Is Associated With Higher Tumor Stage and Poor Prognosis in Colorectal Adenocarcinomas

Goals To gain an insight into the putative role of annexin A5 (ANXA5) in the tumor stage and its clinical outcome. Background ANXA5 is a calcium-binding protein, which has been implicated in the carcinogenesis of several carcinomas. However, the role of ANXA5 in colorectal cancer (CRC) is unclear. Study We investigated the expression of ANXA5 in colorectal adenocarcinoma. This study included 207 consecutive patients with sporadic CRC. Paired...
