VEGFB and colorectal carcinoma: Our results showed that MSI, EMAST, and VEGF-B microsatellite instability was associated with prognosis in CRC patients treated with CT alone or CT + B. In particular, MSI and EMAST instability was associated with a worse prognosis in CT + B patients, whereas VEGF-B microsatellite instability was linked to poorer prognosis in those treated with CT alone.
