Chronic inflammation, colorectal cancer and gene polymorphisms.
Chronic inflammation is commonly present in gastrointestinal mucosal sites at increased risk for cancer, such as in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or chronic gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. Why some patients have more mucosal inflammation than others, and why certain individuals with chronic inflammation develop cancer, are problems that have not been solved. Unlike the cas...
متن کاملInflammation, the microenvironment and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Normal cells develop, differentiate, proliferate, exert their specific function or simply survive in specific microenvironments, where a team of bystander elements ensures a functional three-dimensional scaffold that allows cell-cell contacts and active molecular cross-talk. In cancer a unique microenvironmental organization is instrumental in the development and thriving of malignant cells: ch...
متن کاملCancer Microenvironment and Inflammation: Role of Hyaluronan
The role of inflammation in the development of cancer was described as early as the nineteenth century. Abundant evidence supports the preposition that various cancers are triggered by infection and chronic inflammatory disease whereas, evading immune destruction has been proposed as one of the new "hallmarks of cancer." Changes of the tumor microenvironment have been closely correlated to canc...
متن کاملMicrobiota, Inflammation and Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer, the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, is a multifactorial disease involving genetic, environmental and lifestyle risk factors. In addition, increased evidence has established a role for the intestinal microbiota in the development of colorectal cancer. Indeed, changes in the intestinal microbiota composition in colorectal cancer patients compared to cont...
متن کاملTargeting the Microenvironment in Advanced Colorectal Cancer.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis often occurs at late stages when tumor cells have already disseminated. Current therapies are poorly effective for metastatic disease, the main cause of death in CRC. Despite mounting evidence implicating the tumor microenvironment in CRC progression and metastasis, clinical practice remains predominantly focused on targeting the epithelial compartment. Because...
