Abstract:BackgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent malignancies and the third most lethal cancer globally. The most reported histological subtype of CRC is colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). The zinc transport pathway is critically involved in various tumors, and its anti-tumor effect may be through improving immune function. However, the Zn transport pathway in COAD has not been reported.MethodsThe determination of Zn transport-related genes in COAD was carried out through single-cell analysis of the GS… Show more
