CDH17 and neoplasm: CDH17 expression, as measured by M Score, was found to be significantly increased in tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, and its expression is associated with advanced staging and distant metastasis (normal vs. tumor, p = 0.0011; Stages IV vs. I–III, p < 0.0162; with vs. without metastasis, p = 0.0026; Mann–Whitney U test).
