tumoral     --over  
in senescent fibroblasts, compared to their young counterparts
tumoral somatic mutation     gain of function
activating KRAS mutations is significantly correlated to an upregulation of 13 genes among them DUSP4, a MAP-kinase phosphatase, and SMYD3 in colorectal cancer
tumoral     --low  
through activation of the MAPK signaling pathway is responsible for progression of Colorectal cancer
tumoral   deletion    
in approximately 50 p100 of breast cancers
