Expression of blood coagulation inhibitors in colon cancer

…CONCLUSIONS: Weak representation or the lack of coagulation inhibitors in colon cancer in most cases may facilitate coagulation activation in the tumor burden, and consequently promote colon cancer progression. Heterogeneous and inconstant presence of blood coagulation inhibitors in colon cancer in loco may suggest that nonocoagulant biological activities of these inhibitors may influence the cancer growth or its inhibition in an individual patient. Obtained results suggest that introducing various forms of blood coagulation inhibitors in the treatment of colon cancer patients may be beneficial in selected group of patients.
