The high expression of Nav1.5 in colon cancer tissues was associated with high preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen level [odds ratio (OR) = 2.980; 95% confidential interval (CI) 1.163–7.632; P = 0.023] and high ER-β expression (OR = 2.808; 95% CI 1.243–6.343; P = 0.013). This evidence concerns the gene CEACAM5 and malignant colon neoplasm.
