Novel evidence for an oncogenic role of microRNA-21 in colitis-associated colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: Novel evidence for miR-21 blockade to be a key strategy in reducing CAC is provided, following azoxymethane and dextran sulfate sodium intervention and in a mouse model of CAC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer-associated fibroblasts, a parameter of the tumor microenvironment, overcomes carcinoma-associated parameters in the prognosis of patients with mobile tongue cancer

TL;DR: Routine assessment of CAF density for disease course prognosis and inclusion as an integral part of treatment protocols are recommended, given the strong association between increased CAFdensity and higher mortality in MTSCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental mouse tumour models: what can be learnt about human cancer immunology?

TL;DR: Experimental mouse tumour models have provided key mechanistic insights into host antitumour immune responses, and these have guided the development of novel treatment strategies, but investigators need to gain a better understanding of their strengths and limitations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Emerging Role of Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio in Determining Colorectal Cancer Treatment Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: Elevated preoperative NLR is associated with poorer survival in CRC patients undergoing treatment and may have a role in CRC surveillance programs as a means of delivering more personalized cancer care.

Inflammation and cancer

TL;DR: It is now becoming clear that the tumour microenvironment, which is largely orchestrated by inflammatory cells, is an indispensable participant in the neoplastic process, fostering proliferation, survival and migration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation and cancer: back to Virchow?

TL;DR: A rationale for the use of cytokine and chemokine blockade, and further investigation of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, in the chemoprevention and treatment of malignant diseases is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of chemokine receptors in breast cancer metastasis.

TL;DR: It is reported that the chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CCR7 are highly expressed in human breast cancer cells, malignant breast tumours and metastases and their respective ligands CXCL12/SDF-1α and CCL21/6Ckine exhibit peak levels of expression in organs representing the first destinations of breast cancer metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macrophage polarization: tumor-associated macrophages as a paradigm for polarized M2 mononuclear phagocytes

TL;DR: These functionally polarized cells, and similarly oriented or immature dendritic cells present in tumors, have a key role in subversion of adaptive immunity and in inflammatory circuits that promote tumor growth and progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear factor-kappaB in cancer development and progression.

TL;DR: This article showed that NF-kappaB provides a mechanistic link between inflammation and cancer, and is a major factor controlling the ability of both pre-neoplastic and malignant cells to resist apoptosis-based tumour-surveillance mechanisms.
