This study investigated the effects of olive oil extract on colorectal cancer cells and bone marrow-derived stem cells. Results showed reduced cell migration and colony formation, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits against colorectal cancer.
Low molecular weight polysaccharide (GP) improves gut health and boosts immune system by increasing immune cells, cytokines, and beneficial gut bacteria while reducing harmful bacteria. GP could be a potential treatment for intestinal inflammatory diseases.
The incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) is increasing, not linked to known risk factors. Researchers hypothesize that a pharmaceutical agent may be the cause, suggesting the need for strategies to minimize this risk.
Curcumin, found in turmeric, reduces gastric cancer cell growth, migration, and invasion. It suppresses the PI3K signaling pathway, making it a potential therapeutic agent for gastric cancer. Further research is needed for in vivo effectiveness.
