Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease involving mainly the colorectal mucosa and submucosa, incidence of which has been on rise in recent years. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2), known for its key function as transcription factor, pivotal inducing antioxidant stress regulating responses. Numerous investigations have demonstrated involvement Nrf2 pathway maintaining development normal intestine, UC, UC-related intestinal fibrosis carcinogenesis; meanwhile, therapeutic agents targeting widely investigated. This paper reviews research progress signaling UC.

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Numerous pathophysiological mechanisms, such as abnormal cell proliferation, differentiation, resistance to apoptosis, invasion structures adjacent colorectal tumor cells, and distant metastasis, are involved in carcinogenesis. These processes initiated by complex interaction a number genetic environmental factors, including sedentary lifestyle, obesity, alcohol consumption, smoking, or gut microbiota. Despite significant progress achieved diagnostic therapeutic management patients with cancer, there has been recently noteworthy increase incidence individuals below age 50 years. Early-onset different frequency oncogenic mutations, higher prevalence mucinous histology, distinct deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation profile, more distal location, lower survival rates. A improvement prognosis these can be through detection removal modifiable risk along implementation personalized screening strategies for at high this malignancy.

Traditional drug-based treatments for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have significant limitations due to their potential off-target systemic side-effects. Currently, there is a lack of understanding on how effectively address excessive oxidative stress, dysregulated immune homeostasis, and microbiota dysbiosis within the IBD microenvironment. Herein, we introduce nanotherapeutic approach, named LBL-CO@MPDA, treatment. LBL-CO@MPDA an orally administered formulation that supplies carbon monoxide (CO) therapeutic purposes. To create nanocomposite, developed layer by (LBL) self-assembly strategy where coated chitosan/alginate polyelectrolytes onto surface CO prodrug-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (CO@MPDA). Benefiting from negatively charged LBL coating, it allows targeted accumulation specifically positively inflamed colon lesions through electrostatic interactions. Furthermore, in microenvironment colon, system releases responsive manner. Interestingly, CO@MPDA ameliorates conditions MPDA-mediated ROS-scavenging CO-mediated immunomodulation. CO-supplying activates heme oxygenase-1, leading macrophage M2 polarization via Notch/Hes1/Stat3 signaling pathway, while suppressing response down-regulating p38 MAPK NF-κB (p50/p65) pathways. In mice model dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced IBD, reverses pro-inflammatory restores gut barrier functions multiple mechanisms, including scavenging restoring modulating microbiota. Collectively, our findings highlight promising this innovative treatment IBD.

The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular reprogramming process that occurs during embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis. This involves epithelial cells acquiring mesenchymal phenotype. Through EMT, cancer acquire properties associated with more aggressive EMT its opposite, mesenchymal–epithelial (MET), have been described in tumors over the past ten years, including colorectal (CRC). When activated, expression of marker E-cadherin decreased vimentin raised. As result, temporarily take on phenotype, becoming motile promoting spread tumor cells. Epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity (EMP) has become hot issue CRC because strong inducers (such as transforming growth factor β, TGF-β) can initiate regulate metastasis, microenvironment, immune system resistance CRC. In this review, we into account significance EMT-MET impact cells’ prognosis analysis connection between stem (CCSCs) will help to further clarify current meager understandings EMT. Recent advances affecting important transcription factors CCSCs are highlighted. We come conclusion regulatory network for complicated, great deal crosstalk alternate paths.

The etiology of colorectal cancer (CRC) is influenced by bacterial communities that colonize the gastrointestinal tract. These microorganisms derive essential nutrients from indigestible dietary or host-derived compounds and activate molecular signaling pathways necessary for normal tissue immune function. Associative mechanistic studies have identified species whose presence may increase CRC risk, including notable examples such as Fusobacterium nucleatum, Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis, pks+ E. coli. In recent years this work has expanded in scope to include aspects host mutational status, intra-tumoral microbial heterogeneity, transient infection, cumulative influence multiple carcinogenic bacteria after sequential co-colonization. review, we will provide an updated overview how host-bacteria interactions development, knowledge be utilized diagnose prevent CRC, gut microbiome influences treatment efficacy.
