Does cell surface fucosylation affect development of colon tumors in mice with germline Smad3 mutation?
In this model of colorectal cancer, cell surface alpha(1,2)fucosylation does not affect development of colon tumors.
Units with DCIS detection above the NHSBSP guidelines have significantly better small invasive cancer detection rates. The existence of an upper limit for DCIS detection within the NHSBSP may be preventing the detection of small invasive cancers, because units are not recalling some small clusters of calcification in order to keep DCIS detection rates down. The upper limit may therefore be inappropriate.
