Differential Gene Expression between African American and European American Colorectal Cancer Patients
The incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer (CRC) is higher in African Americans (AAs) than in other ethnic groups in the U. S., but reasons for the disparities are unknown. We performed gene expression profiling and microsatellite instability (MSI) analysis of sporadic CRCs from AAs vs. European Americans (EAs) to assess the contribution to CRC disparities. We evaluated gene expression of 43 AA and 43 EA CRC tumors matched by stage and 40 normal colon tissues using the Agilent human whole...
