Abstract Background Constitutive activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling plays a key role in the development and progression colorectal carcinoma (CRC). However, underlying mechanisms excessive NF-κB remain largely unknown. Methods We used high throughput RNA sequencing to identify differentially expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) between normal human intestinal epithelial cell lines CRC lines. The identification protein encoded by circPLCE1 was performed using LC–MS. function...
Abstract Oncogenic KRAS has been previously identified to act in a cell-intrinsic manner modulate multiple biological functions of colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we demonstrate cell-extrinsic role KRAS, where engages with the tumor microenvironment by functional reprogramming tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). In human CRC specimens, mutant positively correlates presence TAMs. Mutationally activated cells reprograms TAM-like phenotype via combination effect tumor-derived CSF2 and lactate....
The tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC) often follows the normal-adenoma-carcinoma (N-A-C) sequence. However, molecular mechanisms underlying adenoma carcinogenesis remain largely unknown. Here, we analyzed transcriptomic profile changes in normal, advanced adenoma, and carcinoma tissues from patients with CRC, revealing that glutamic-pyruvic transaminase 1 ( GPT1 ) was down-regulated during N-A-C process correlated poor CRC prognosis. Mechanistically, transcriptionally activated by...
Abstract Background Tumour immune macroenvironment is comprised of tumour and surrounding organs responding to tumourigenesis immunotherapy. The lack comprehensive analytical methods hinders its application for prediction survival treatment response in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Methods Cytometry by time‐of‐flight (CyTOF) RNA‐seq was applied characterise cell heterogeneity a discovery cohort including tumour, blood intestinal architecture comprising epithelium, lamina propria,...

Increasing interest has developed in the therapeutic potential of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for treatment inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and IBD-induced cancer. However, whether MSCs have ability to suppress or promote tumor development remains controversial. The stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1)/C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) axis is well known play a critical role homing MSCs. In this study, we aimed evaluate CXCR4-overexpressing on tumorigenesis IBD....
Screening for early‐stage disease is vital reducing colorectal cancer (CRC)‐related mortality. Methylation of circulating tumor DNA has been previously used various types screening. A novel cell‐free (cfDNA) methylation‐based model which can improve the early detection CRC warranted. For our study, we collected 313 tissue and 577 plasma samples from patients with CRC, advanced adenoma (AA), non‐AA healthy controls. After quality control, 187 (91 non‐malignant patients, 26 AA 70 CRC) 489...
Despite the concern of within-tumor genetic diversity, this diversity is in fact limited by kinship among cells tumor. Indeed, genomic studies have amply supported 'Nowell dogma' whereby same tumor descend from a single progenitor cell. In parallel, data also suggest that could be >10-fold larger if are multiple origins. We develop an evolutionary hypothesis may often harbor cell clones independent origins, but only one would large enough to detected. To test hypothesis, we search for tumors...

Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Early detection CRC can significantly reduce its mortality rate. Current method diagnosis relies on the invasive endoscopy. Non-invasive assays including fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) and immunological test (FIT) are compromised by low sensitivity specificity, especially at early stages. Thus, non-invasive accurate approach for screening would be highly desirable. Results A new qPCR-based...
Abstract Background Early detection of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) would help to identify tumors when curative treatments are available and beneficial. However, current screening methods for CRC, e.g., colonoscopy, may affect patients’ compliance due the uncomfortable, invasive time-consuming process. In recent decades, methylation profiles blood-based circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) have shown promising results in early multiple tumors. Here we conducted a study investigate performance ctDNA...
