Exploring the Role of HSD17B2 in Colorectal Cancer Through Bioinformatic Analysis: Preliminary Insights for Prognostic Evaluation
The results suggest that HSD17B2 is frequently downregulated in precancerous lesions and early-stage CRC, which may contribute to elevated estradiol levels and a tumor-promoting microenvironment, and HSD17B11 and HSD17B11 warrant further investigation as candidate biomarkers for distinguishing CRC from benign and preca...
