A-kinase anchor protein 4 (AKAP4) a promising therapeutic target of colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third among the estimated cancer cases and cancer related mortalities in the Western world. Early detection and efficient therapy of CRC remains a major health challenge. Therefore, there is a need to identify novel tumor markers for early diagnosis and treatment of CRC. ⋯ AKAP4 appears to be a novel CRC-associated antigen with a potential for developing as a new clinical therapeutic target.
