LncRNA ANRIL Promotes Glucose Metabolism and Proliferation of Colon Cancer in a High-Glucose Environment and is Associated with Worse Outcome in Diabetic Colon Cancer Patients
CONCLUSIONS: A high-glucose environment can increase the tumor-promoting effect of ANRIL. ANRIL can promote glucose metabolism and colon cancer proliferation by downregulating miR-186-5p with subsequent upregulation of glycolysis enzymes expression and inhibition of apoptosis.PMID:38679999 | DOI:10.31557/APJCP.2024.25.4.1371 (Source: Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention)

The mediating role of health behaviors in the association between depression, anxiety and cancer incidence: an individual participant data meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Smoking constitutes a mediating pathway linking depression and anxiety to lung cancer and smoking-related cancers. Our findings underline the importance of smoking cessation interventions for persons with depression or anxiety.PMID:38680088 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291724000850 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

NestedBD: Bayesian inference of phylogenetic trees from single-cell copy number profiles under a birth-death model
Algorithms Mol Biol. 2024 Apr 29;19(1):18. doi: 10.1186/s13015-024-00264-4.ABSTRACTCopy number aberrations (CNAs) are ubiquitous in many types of cancer. Inferring CNAs from cancer genomic data could help shed light on the initiation, progression, and potential treatment of cancer. While such data have traditionally been available via "bulk sequencing," the more recently introduced techniques for single-cell DNA sequencing (scDNAseq) provide the type of data that makes CNA inference possible at the single-cell resolution. We introduce a new birth-death evolutionary model of CNAs and a Bayesian method, NestedBD, for the inf...

Dissecting the Mechanisms of Intestinal Immune Homeostasis by Analyzing T-Cell Immune Response in Crohn's Disease and Colorectal Cancer
CONCLUSION: Finally, the analysis of regulon networks revealed several promising candidates for cell-specific transcription factors (TFs). This study focused on the immune molecular mechanism under intestinal diseases. It contributed to the novel insight of depicting a detailed immune landscape and revealing T-cell responding mechanisms in CD and CRC.PMID:38682449 | DOI:10.2174/0115665232294568240201073417 (Source: Current Gene Therapy)

Synergistic effects of < em > Bacillus coagulans < /em > and < em > Newcastle disease virus < /em > on human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell proliferation
CONCLUSION: It appears that utilizing oncolytic viruses (OV) and bacteria in conjunction with chemotherapy drugs could potentially aid in reducing the growth of colorectal cancer cells. However, further research is necessary, including animal studies, to confirm the efficacy of this treatment method.PMID:38682055 | PMC:PMC11055439 | DOI:10.18502/ijm.v16i1.14878 (Source: Iranian Journal of Microbiology)

Correlation between Pain and Anal Defecation Function in Postoperative Patients with Colorectal Cancer and Related Factors Affecting Patients' Prognosis
CONCLUSION: LARS is strongly associated with the patient's pain level, and factors such as anastomotic position <5 cm from the anal verge, preoperative radiotherapy, anastomotic fistula, high VAS level, and low MTV level will increase the risk of concurrent LARS in patients.PMID:38684502 | DOI:10.62713/aic.3173 (Source: Annali Italiani di Chirurgia)

Implications of Pretreatment Serum Carcinoembryonic Antigen Levels and Perineural Invasion with Staging, Prognosis, and Management in Stage I-III Colon Cancer after Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study in the SEER Database
CONCLUSION: For postoperative patients with stage I-III colon cancer, our study indicated that the CP stage is a significant prognostic factor for CSS, which deserves more clinical attention. It's worth noting that including the CP stage in the AJCC TNM staging system of colon carcinoma is beneficial to the survival prediction and clinical treatment.PMID:38684496 | DOI:10.62713/aic.3296 (Source: Annali Italiani di Chirurgia)

Evaluation of the Combined Effect of Caffeine and 5-Fluorouracil on Colorectal Cancer Cell Lines
In this study, initially HCT116 and HEK293 cell lines were cultured as cancer and normal cells, respectively. These cell lines were then evaluated for cytotoxicity, induction of apoptosis, and rate of cell migration. All data were analyzed by statistical methods.RESULTS: The results indicated that a combination of caffeine and 5-FU augmented their cytotoxicity in HCT116 cells but reduced cytotoxicity in HEK293 cells. No reduction was observed in the migration of HCT116 cells that were treated with caffeine or a combination of caffeine and 5-FU. Also, it seems that caffeine reverses the apoptotic effect of 5-FU in HCT116 ce...
