SRPK1 and colorectal cancer: Similarly, in colorectal cancer, SRPK1 was overexpressed in both cancer and its precursor, adenoma, compared to the normal colonic tissue [22,31,36,38,39,40]; its high expression was also linked with higher grade and stage colorectal cancers, presence of lymph node metastases, in addition to shorter overall and recurrence-free survival [31,36,38,39].
