Background The aims of this study were to investigate metastasis suppressor 1 (MTSS1)
expression in benign and malignant colorectal tissues and to explore its significance in the
prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Methods MTSS1 expression was detected by
immunohistochemistry in CRC, colorectal adenomatous polyp (precancerous lesion) and
normal colorectal tissues. The relationship between MTSS1 expression in CRC tissues and
clinicopathologic factors was analyzed with Mann–Whitney U test. MTSS1 protein …
