| The authors investigated the profitable effect of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with a different graphene layer and surface modification on the 3D model of intestinal organoids and demonstrated that CNTs promoted the development of intestinal organoids over time. [ACS Nano] |

|
| Diets high in cholesterol alter intestinal immunity. Scientists examined how the cholesterol metabolite 25-hydroxycholesterol impacted the intestinal B cell response. [Immunity] |
|
|
|
| Investigators observed high expression of RAN binding protein 1 (RANBP1) in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues. In vitro and in vivo functional experiments demonstrated that RANBP1 promoted the proliferation and invasion of CRC cells and inhibited the apoptosis of CRC cells. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| To identify genetic vulnerabilities of colon cancer, investigators performed targeted CRISPR dropout screens comprising 657 Drugbank targets and 317 epigenetic regulators on two patient-derived colon cancer stem cells-enriched spheroids. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the role of the CDK inhibitor p27kip1 in the response to the selective CDK4/6-inhibitor Palbociclib, in colorectal cancer. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| Through an LC–MS assay, LIM and SH3 protein 1 (LASP1) was identified as a sphingolipid-metabolism-involved protein, and short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase (ECHS1) was identified as a new LASP1-interacting protein through a protein assay in colorectal cancer. [Cell Death & Disease] |
|
|
|
| To investigate how AHA1 expression regulated the cancer cell progression and/or metastasis of human colorectal cancer (CRC), the expression levels of AHA1 and Hsp90 were examined in 105 CRC tissue samples and compared with those in paired normal tissue. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators performed an integrated analysis of miRNA and RNA sequencing data to identify a network of interactions within small intestinal epithelial cells which could promote gut barrier disruption. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers evaluated the anticancer effect of Podophyllotoxin on human colorectal cancer HCT116 cells and identified the detailed molecular mechanism. [Biomolecules & Therapeutics] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the effects of hepcidin on iron and calcium uptake ability under physiological, iron uptake stimulation and calcium uptake suppression. [PLoS One] |
|
|
|
| Researchers analyzed the suitability of in vitro models for assessing the interaction of micro- and nanoplastics with intestinal cells. [Environment International] |
|
|
|
|
| Aluminum treatment can regulate intestinal composition and bio-enzyme activity, impairing the function of chemical barrier. [Chemosphere] |

|
| First Wave BioPharma, Inc. announced that it has dosed the first patient in a Phase IIb clinical trial investigating a topical formulation of niclosamide as a potential treatment for patients with ulcerative proctitis and ulcerative proctosigmoiditis. [First Wave BioPharma, Inc.] |
