Figure 1 Major pathways with significant genetic variants implicated in the development of colorectal cancer.
Several pathways and related genes involved in the progression of colorectal cancer are illustrated. Genes with significant single nucleotide polymorphisms that are associated with colorectal cancer risk are represented with gray color. TGF-β: Transforming growth factor-β; BMP: Bone morphogenetic protein; CIMP: CpG island methylator phenotype; MSI: Microsatellite instability; CIN: Chromosomal instability.
