Role of Bisphenol A in the Development and Progression of Colorectal Cancer: Possible Sex-Specific Effects of Endogenous and Exogenous Estrogens Open
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is more prevalent in men, and premenopausal women have a better prognosis than both men and postmenopausal women, suggesting a protective effect of estrogen. Humans are exposed to estrogen-like contamina…
