CTHRC1 and colorectal carcinoma: Immune cell profiling revealed differences in the composition of tumors and spleens of these mice; specifically, Cthrc1 KO mice exhibited an increased percentage of CD3+ T cells in both tumors and spleens and decreased Gr-1+ myeloid cells in the spleen, compared to WT, indicating an immunoregulatory role for CTHRC1 in CRC.
