Abstract
Background:
Prevention is the primary strategy to avoid the occurrence and mortality of colorectal cancer.
Generally, the concentrations of tumor markers tested during the diagnosis and believed to assist the detection of
disease in the early stages of cancer. Some of the biomarkers are also important during treatment and real-time monitoring
of the progress of treatment.
Methods:
We considered a rationale search of key references from the database of peer-reviewed research and review
literatures of colorectal cancer. The topic of search was focused on the novel methods and modern techniques
of Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment of colorectal cancer. The screened publications were critically analysed
using a deductive content analysis and the matter was put in separate headings and sub headings.
Results:
It was found that endoscopic examination, early detection, and surgery are some of the common strategies to
manage colorectal cancer because late stages are difficult to treat due to the high-cost requirement and fewer chances
of survival. As far as chemotherapy is concerned, systemic chemotherapy has been shown to offer the maximum
benefit to patients with cancer metastasis. Among different chemotherapy measures, primary colorectal cancer prevention
agents involve pharmaceuticals, phytochemicals, and dietary supplements are some of the standard options.
Conclusion:
In this review article, we have provided a comprehensive analysis of different biomarkers for the detection
of colorectal cancer as well as different formulations developed for efficient treatment of the disease. The use of
dietary supplements, the combinatorial approach, and nanotechnology-based strategies for colorectal cancer diagnosis
and treatment are some of the recent and modern methods of cancer management.

Electrochemical Nano-biosensors as Novel Approach for the Detection of Lung Cancer-related MicroRNAs. Curr Mol Med 2019; 20:13-35. [DOI: 10.2174/1566524019666191001114941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2019] [Revised: 08/22/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
In both men and women around the world, lung cancer accounts as the
principal cause of cancer-related death after breast cancer. Therefore, early detection of
the disease is a cardinal step in improving prognosis and survival of patients. Today, the
newly-defined microRNAs regulate about 30 to 60 percent of the gene expression.
Changes in microRNA Profiles are linked to numerous health conditions, making them
sophisticated biomarkers for timely, if not early, detection of cancer. Though evaluation
of microRNAs in real samples has proved to be rather challenging, which is largely
attributable to the unique characteristics of these molecules. Short length, sequence
similarity, and low concentration stand among the factors that define microRNAs.
Recently, diagnostic technologies with a focus on wide-scale point of care have recently
garnered attention as great candidates for early diagnosis of cancer. Electrochemical
nano-biosensors have recently garnered much attention as a molecular method,
showing great potential in terms of sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility, and last but
not least, adaptability to point-of-care testing. Application of nanoscale materials in
electrochemical devices as promising as it is, brings multiplexing potential for conducting
simultaneous evaluations on multiple cancer biomarkers. Thanks to their enthralling
properties, these materials can be used to improve the efficiency of cancer diagnostics,
offer more accurate predictions of prognosis, and monitor response to therapy in a more
efficacious way. This article presents a concise overview of recent advances in the
expeditiously evolving area of electrochemical biosensors for microRNA detection in
lung cancer.
