Abstract:Almost one-third of colorectal carcinomas (CRCs) arise from sessile serrated lesions (SSLs) which have > 90% rate of BRAFV600E mutations. Serrated pathway CRCs are aggressive, have poor prognosis and lack treatment options. The pro-metastasis actin-bundling protein fascin1 is absent from the normal colon but is a marker of SSLs and is differentially expressed between serrated pathway and conventional CRCs.However, its function in serrated pathway carcinogenesis has not been directly evaluated. We identify f… Show more
