The aim of our study was to examine the allelic frequencies of TNFα promoter SNPs, -1031 T/C, -857 C/T, -308 G/A and -238 G/A, in patients with sporadic colon adenocarcinoma in order to investigate the possible role of these SNPs in susceptibility to sporadic colon cancer.
Data suggested that by regulating the interactions between p53 and DR4/DR5, the tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) pathway played a key role in the action of PPD, a promising colon cancer inhibitory compound.
Altogether, the present work highlights a novel mechanism for anti-cancer action of DHA involving colon cancer cell death mediated through autocrine action of TNFα.
In this study, we attempted to develop a multimodality approach using chemotherapeutic agent mitomycin C, biologic agent tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL/Apo-2L), and mild hyperthermia to treat colon cancer.
Importantly, we further demonstrated that overexpressing PHD2 attenuated inflammation in colon cancer xenograft mice through weakening accumulation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), as well as secretions of pro-inflammatory cytokines including G-CSF, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, and IL-4.
A secreted member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, DcR3, was recently reported to be amplified in human lung and colon cancers as a negative regulator of Fas-mediated apoptosis.
We also investigated the effects of Paeonol in colon cancer-derived CW-2 cells and T cell leukemia-derived Jurkat cells treated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) and/or interferon gamma (IFNgamma), which play critical roles in TNBS-induced colitis.
In conclusion, our findings show that M2-medium enriched in TNFα and LTD<sub>4</sub> promote colon cancer cell invasion via MMP-9 expression and activation and the induction of EMT.
We treated the colon cancer cell line COGA-1A for 6, 12, and 24h with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-D3), IL-6, TNFα, and with combinations of these compounds.
Inulins inhibited the development of dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis and colon cancer in mice; these fructans reduced the concentration of tumor necrosis factor alpha and prevented the formation of intestinal polyps, villous atrophy, and lymphoid hyperplasia.
In MARCKS-positive MSS colon cancer cell lines (SW480 and SW707) small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of MARCKS conferred resistance to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis.
To evaluate resistance that develops in cancer cells during treatment with adenoviral vectors expressing proapoptotic genes, we repeatedly treated the human colon cancer cell line DLD1 with adenoviral vectors expressing the human Bax gene and the human tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) gene.
Inhibition of TNFα in peritoneal fluids of patients following colorectal resection attenuates the postoperative stress-related increase in colon cancer cell migration: A prospective, in vitro study.
We conclude that activation of stromal COX-2 signalling by TNFα played a major role in promoting proliferation and invasiveness of colon cancer epithelial cells.
The aim of the study was to examine the influence of inositol hexaphosphate (IP6), a naturally occurring phytochemical, on the expression of genes encoding COX and LOX isoforms and synthesis of their products (PGE<sub>2</sub> and LTB<sub>4</sub>) in colon cancer cell line Caco-2 stimulated with pro-inflammatory agents (IL-1β/TNFα).
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) stimulation can increase miR-19a expression, and upregulated miR-19a can in turn activate nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling and TNF-α production by targeting TNF alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3). miR-19a inhibition can also alleviate CAC in vivo.
In this study, we sought to further confirm the antitumor activity of oncolytic virus-armed tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) gene therapy in xenografts, which derived from the tumors of patients with colon cancer.
