Several reports indicate that mesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid, 5-ASA) is a promising candidate for the chemoprevention of colo-rectal cancer because its ability to reach purpose avoiding unwanted side effects usually associated with prolonged administration nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This activity 5-ASA probably consequence number determined on cells, consisting reduced proliferation, increased apoptosis and activation cell cycle checkpoints DNA repair processes. A recent...
Mu-protocadherin (MUCDHL) is an adhesion molecule predominantly expressed by colorectal epithelial cells which markedly downregulated upon malignant transformation. Notably, treatment of cancer (CRC) with mesalazine lead to increased expression MUCDHL, and associated sequestration β-catenin on the plasma membrane inhibition its transcriptional activity. To better characterize causal relationship between MUCDHL expression, we performed various experiments in CRC cell lines normal colonic...
In ovarian cancer, expression of metabolism-related markers has been investigated in several studies focusing on individual markers; however, a parallel quantitative evaluation mapping to distinct metabolic processes and their prognostic value large patient cohorts is still lacking.
