DEAD-box RNA helicase protein DDX21 as a prognosis marker for early stage colorectal cancer with microsatellite instability

Abstract DEAD-box RNA helicase DDX21 (also named nucleolar RNA helicase 2) is a nuclear autoantigen with undefined roles in cancer. To explore possible roles of autoimmune recognition in cancer immunity, we examined DDX21 protein expression in colorectal cancer tissue and its association with patien...
