    Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in the Intestinal Epithelium Initiates Purine Metabolite Synthesis and Promotes Th17 Cell Differentiation in the Gut

    Researchers found that Th17 cell-inducing gut bacteria generated an unfolded protein response (UPR) in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Subtilase cytotoxin expression or genetic removal of X-box binding protein 1 in IECs caused a UPR and increased Th17 cells, even in antibiotic-treated or germ-free conditions.

    The SMARCA4R1157W Mutation Facilitates Chromatin Remodeling and Confers PRMT1/SMARCA4 Inhibitors Sensitivity in Colorectal Cancer

    The authors identified a specific, hotspot mutation in SMARCA4 which resulted in a conversion from arginine to tryptophan at residue 1157 (R1157W) in human colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues associated with higher-grade tumors and controled CRC progression.

    LncRNA CACClnc Promotes Chemoresistance of Colorectal Cancer by Modulating Alternative Splicing of RAD51

    Researchers identified a novel lncRNA, CACClnc, which was upregulated and associated with chemoresistance and poor prognosis in colorectal cancer.

    C4orf19 Inhibits Colorectal Cancer Cell Proliferation by Competitively Binding to Keap1 with TRIM25 via the USP17/Elk-1/CDK6 Axis

    Exploration of the TCGA database indicated that C4orf19 was markedly downregulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues in comparison to that observed in normal colonic tissues, suggesting its potential association with CRC behaviors.

    LncRNA LOC105369504 Inhibits Tumor Proliferation and Metastasis in Colorectal Cancer by Regulating PSPC1

    A novel functional lncRNA LOC105369504 was identified by microarray analysis. In colorectal cancer, LOC105369504 expression was markedly decreased and resulted in distinct variations in proliferation, invasion, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in vivo and in vitro.

    N-methylsansalvamide Elicits Antitumor Effects in Colon Cancer Cells In Vitro and In Vivo by Regulating Proliferation, Apoptosis, and Metastatic Capacity

    Scientists investigated the anti-colorectal cancer effect of N-methylsansalvamide (MSSV). MSSV exhibited the inhibition of the proliferation in HCT116 cells via induction of G0/G1 cell cycle arrest by downregulating CDK 2, CDK6, cyclin D, and cyclin E, and upregulating p21WAF1 and p27KIP1.

    Potential Anti-Proliferative Activity of Salix mucronata and Triticum spelta Plant Extracts on Liver and Colorectal Cancer Cell Lines

    Salix mucronata and Triticum spelta plant extracts were prepared using five different solvents and examined for their cytotoxicity against liver HepG2 cancer cell line. It was found that Salix mucronata ethanolic extract was high in antioxidant mediated anti-cancer activity.
