Deniz Can Guven: WNT and TGF-B alterations in Young-Onset CRC

Deniz Can Guven, The Editorial Board Member in BMC Cancer, shared on X about recent paper by him as co-author, titled “Investigating the WNT and TGF-beta pathways alterations and tumor mutation burden in young-onset colorectal cancer” published on Scientific Reports.

Authors: Morgan Ferrell, Deniz Can Guven, Cyndi Gonzalez Gomez, Elham Nasrollahi, Richard Giza, Svea Cheng, Masood Pasha Syed, Tara Magge, Aatur Singhi, Anwaar Saeed, Turcin Saridogan, Ibrahim Halil Sahin.

Our new article is out at Scientific Reports

 We evaluated the WNT and TGF-B alterations in Young-Onset CRC
  • Similar rate of mutations in the WNT pathway
  • Lower rate of mutations in the TGF-B pathway in the Young-Onset CR
  • Higher median TMB in Young-Onset CRC.”

Ibrahim Halil Sahin, Assistant Professor at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center, shared this post adding:

“The outstanding work with our internal medicine resident Dr Ferrel and Dr Guven is out

  • We investigated common molecular pathway alterations along patients with young onset CRC
  • Similar rates of WNT pathway alterations but lower incidence of TGF-beta alterations
  • Regardless of age, Wnt alterations were more common in rectal cancer than colon cancer. May have biological and therapeutic implications in the future…”
