Serrated Pathway to Colorectal Carcinogenesis: A Molecular Perspective
Ajay Goel,Francesc Balaguer +1 more
TL;DR: Although it is welcome news that the authors now better understand the molecular pathogenesis of some proportion of sporadic cancers, nonetheless serrated polyps present with a major challenge for the early detection and management of colorectal cancer, which is no longer considered to be a homogenous entity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acetyl-11-Keto-Beta-Boswellic Acid Inhibits Cell Growth, Invasion, and Migration in Colon Cancer Cells by Modulating the Expression of MicroRNA Let-7 and the Mir-200 Family
TL;DR: Use of low dose aspirin is associated with about a 20% reduction in CRC incidence but this reduction is only evident after over 7 years of use, although this is a modest reduction aspirin combined with other agents such as calcium could result in a more substantial effect.
