    CLMP Is a Tumor Suppressor That Determines All-Trans Retinoic Acid Response in Colorectal Cancer

    Researchers demonstrated that CAR-like membrane protein (CLMP) was rarely mutated but significantly decreased in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, and its deficiency accelerated CRC tumorigenesis, growth, and resistance to all-trans retinoic acid.

    IL-38 Regulates Intestinal Stem Cell Homeostasis by Inducing WNT Signaling and Beneficial IL-1β Secretion

    Cultures of intestinal organoids revealed that IL-38 functioned as a growth factor by increasing organoid size via inducing WNT3a. In contrast, organoids from IL-38-deficient mice developed more slowly.

    ADORA2A Promotes Proliferation and Inhibits Apoptosis through PI3K/AKT Pathway Activation in Colorectal Carcinoma

    CCK8, colony formation, wound healing, and transwell assay were used to detect the effects of cell proliferation, migration, and invasion after knockdown and over expression of ADORA2A.

    Atovaquone Inhibits Colorectal Cancer Metastasis by Regulating PDGFRβ/NF-κB Signaling Pathway

    Investigators showed that atovaquone could inhibit colorectal cancer metastasis and invasion in vivo and in vitro, inhibit the expression of E-cadherin protein, and promote the protein expression of N-cadherin, vimentin, ZEB1, Snail, and Slug.

    MiR-548c-3p through Suppressing Tyms and Abcg2 Increases the Sensitivity of Colorectal Cancer Cells to 5-Fluorouracil

    The authors found the miRNAs that modulated the expression of Tyms and Abcg2 as resistance-inducing genes in the resistant cell lines to 5-Fluorouracil.
