CDH17 is expressed in not only gastric cancer but also colon cancer and pancreatic cancer: the expression ratios of colonic adenocarcinoma, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and cholangiocarcinoma were reported to be 97.3%, 39.3%, 24.1%, and 53.3%, respectively [9, 10, 28]. This evidence concerns the gene CDH17 and familial pancreatic carcinoma.
