Genomewide expression profiling has identified a number of genes expressed at higher levels in colorectal cancer (CRC) than in normal tissues. Our objectives in this study were: 1) to test whether genes were also distinct on the protein level; 2) to evaluate these biomarkers in a series of well-characterized CRCs; and 3) to apply hierarchical cluster analysis to the immunohistochemical data.
