Azione Chemiopreventiva Della Mesalazina Sul Cancro Del Colon-retto: Studio Pilota Per la Valutazione Degli Effetti Molecolari "in Vivo" Sulla Via di Segnalazione Proliferativa Della β-catenina (Official Title in Italian Language)
The purpose of this study is to obtain an "in vivo" confirmation that mesalazine induces the gene expression of μ-protocadherin and other related genes in the colon mucosa, as demonstrated in some "in vitro" experiments. .
