Objective: This study aims to explore the clinical significance of haptoglobin (HP) and protein disulfide-isomerase A3 (PDIA3) in human serum in the screening, diagnosis and staging of colorectal cancer (CRC), and to provide novel screening approaches featuring high specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy for early screening and diagnosis of clinical colorectal cancer. The gene discussed is HP; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
