Zhang Y, Lu A, Kang HA. Modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors of early-onset colorectal cancer: National Health Interview Survey analysis. Cancer Epidemiol 2024; 93:102682. [PMID: 39383618 DOI: 10.1016/j.canep.2024.102682] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 09/11/2024] [Accepted: 09/30/2024] [Indexed: 10/11/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosed in individuals younger than 50 years, early-onset CRC (EO-CRC), is rapidly increasing, the risk factors for EO-CRC are still being identified. This study aimed to confirm the modifiable and non-modifiable characteristics identified as risk factors for EO-CRC. METHODS This cross-sectional study used 2004-2018 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) data, which provides comprehensive health information gathered from national annual household interview surveys. Demographic, clinical, and behavioral characteristics of EO-CRC patients were compared with those without. In addition, their non-age-related characteristics (gender, race/ethnicity, region, body mass index [BMI], alcohol consumption, and smoking status) were compared with individuals with average-onset CRC (AO-CRC). For both comparisons, multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS We identified 156 patients with EO-CRC, 204,846 with non-CRC, and 1972 with AO-CRC. Comparison between the EO-CRC and the non-CRC groups showed that higher odds of having EO-CRC was associated with older age (Odds Ratio [OR]=1.11, 95 % CI=1.08-1.14, p<0.001), living in the Midwest (vs. South) (OR=1.64, 95 % CI=1.06-2.55, p=0.03), and history of alcohol consumption (vs. lifetime abstainer) (OR=2.09, 95 % CI=1.01-4.36, p=0.049). Lower odds of having EO-CRC were associated with being Hispanic (OR=0.43, 95 % CI=0.22-0.84, p=0.01) or Asian (OR=0.38, 95 % CI=0.16-0.92, p=0.03) (vs. non-Hispanic White) and having moderate or vigorous physical activities (vs. no activity) (OR=0.58, 95 % CI=0.34-0.999, p=0.0496 and OR=0.34; 95 % CI=0.21-0.55, p<0.0001, respectively). Compared with patients with AO-CRC, patients with EO-CRC were more likely to be Hispanic (vs. non-Hispanic White) (OR=2.21, 95 % CI=1.13-4.33, p=0.02). CONCLUSION This study verified several modifiable (i.e., alcohol consumption and physical activity) and non-modifiable (i.e., race/ethnicity) risk factors while also discovering a new factor (i.e., geographical region) associated with EO-CRC.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are at a higher risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC). However, advancements in endoscopic imaging techniques, integrated surveillance programs, and improved medical therapies have led to a decrease in the incidence of CRC among IBD patients. Currently, the management of patients with IBD who have a history of or ongoing active malignancy is an unmet need. This involves balancing the risk of cancer recurrence/progression with the potential exacerbation of IBD if the medications are discontinued. The objective of this review is to provide an updated summary of the epidemiology, causes, risk factors, and surveillance approaches for CRC in individuals with IBD, and to offer practical guidance on managing IBD patients with history of previous or active cancer.

World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:3105-3122. [PMID: 38898844 PMCID: PMC11185383 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v12.i17.3105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Malancao (MLC) is a traditional Chinese medicine with a long history of utilization in treating ulcerative colitis (UC). Nevertheless, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying its efficacy remain elusive. This study leveraged ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with exactive mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QE-MS), network pharmacology, molecular docking (MD), and gene microarray analysis to discern the bioactive constituents and the potential mechanism of action of MLC in UC management. AIM To determine the ingredients related to MLC for treatment of UC using multiple databases to obtain potential targets for fishing. METHODS This research employs UHPLC-QE-MS for the identification of bioactive compounds present in MLC plant samples. Furthermore, the study integrates the identified MLC compound-related targets with publicly available databases to elucidate common drug disease targets. Additionally, the R programming language is utilized to predict the central targets and molecular pathways that MLC may impact in the treatment of UC. Finally, MD are conducted using AutoDock Vina software to assess the affinity of bioactive components to the main targets and confirm their therapeutic potential. RESULTS Firstly, through a comprehensive analysis of UHPLC-QE-MS data and public database resources, we identified 146 drug-disease cross targets related to 11 bioactive components. The Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis highlighted that common disease drug targets are primarily involved in oxidative stress management, lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis, and other processes. They also affect AGE-RAGE and apoptosis signaling pathways. Secondly, by analyzing the differences in diseases, we identified key research targets. These core targets are related to 11 active substances, including active ingredients such as quercetin and luteolin. Finally, MD analysis revealed the stability of compound-protein binding, particularly between JUN-Luteolin, JUN-Quercetin, HSP90AA1-Wogonin, and HSP90AA1-Rhein. Therefore, this suggests that MLC may help alleviate intestinal inflammation in UC, restore abnormal lipid accumulation, and regulate the expression levels of core proteins in the intestine. CONCLUSION The utilization of MLC has demonstrated notable therapeutic efficacy in the management of UC by means of the compound target interaction pathway. The amalgamation of botanical resources, metabolomics, natural products, MD, and gene chip technology presents a propitious methodology for investigating therapeutic targets of herbal medicines and discerning novel bioactive constituents.

Abstract
Treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) has been revolutionized by the arrival of biotherapies and technical progress in interventional endoscopy and surgery. (Sub)total emergency colectomy is required in the event of complicated severe acute colitis: colectasis, perforation, hemorrhage, organ failure. Corticosteroid therapy is the reference treatment for uncomplicated severe acute colitis, while infliximab and ciclosporin are 2nd-line treatments. At each step, before and after each line of treatment failure, surgery should be considered as an option. In cases refractory to medical treatment, the choice between surgery and change in medication must weigh the chronic symptoms associated with the disease against the risks of postoperative complications and functional sequelae inherent to surgery. Detection of dysplastic lesions necessitates chromoendoscopic imaging with multiple biopsies and anatomopathological verification. Endoscopic treatment of these lesions remains reserved for selected patients. These different indications call for multidisciplinary medical-surgical discussion. Total coloproctectomy with ileo-anal anastomosis (TCP-IAA) is the standard surgery, and it holds out hope for healing. Modalities depend on patient characteristics, previous emergency colectomy, and presence of dysplasia. It may be carried out in one, in two modified, or in three phases. The main complications are anastomotic fistula, short-term pouch-related fistula, ileo-anal pouch syndrome, pouchitis and long-term digestive and sexual disorders. For selected cases, an alternative can consist in total colectomy with ileo-rectal anastomosis or permanent terminal ileostomy. The objective of this update is to clarify the indications, modalities, and results of surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis in accordance with the most recent data in the literature.

Abstract
Probiotics, recognized as beneficial and active microorganisms, often face challenges in maintaining their functionality under harsh conditions such as exposure to stomach acid and bile salts. In this investigation, we developed probiotic microcapsules and assessed their protective effects and underlying mechanisms in a murine model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis using male C57BL/6J mice. The administration of the probiotic microcapsules significantly mitigated body weight loss, prevented colon length shortening, decreased the disease activity index scores, and reduced histopathological scores in mice with DSS-induced colitis. Concurrently, the microencapsulated probiotics preserved intestinal barrier integrity by upregulating the expressions of tight junction proteins ZO-1 and occludin, as well as the mucus layer component MUC-2. Moreover, the treatment with probiotic microcapsules suppressed the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway in the context of DSS-induced colitis. In conclusion, these findings support the utilization of probiotic microcapsules as a potential functional food ingredient to maintain the permeability of the intestinal barrier and alleviate colonic inflammation in UC.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is multifactorial chronic inflammatory disease in the gastrointestinal tract, affecting patients' quality of life profoundly. The incidence of IBD has been on the rise globally for the last two decades. Because the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease remain not well understood, therapeutic development is significantly impeded. Metabolism is a crucial cellular process to generate the energy needed for an inflammatory response and tissue repair. Comprehensive understanding of the metabolic pathways in IBD would help to unravel the disease pathogenesis/progression and facilitate therapeutic discoveries. Here, we investigated four metabolic pathways altered in experimental colitis. C57BL/6J mice were treated with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in drinking water for 7 days to induce experimental ulcerative colitis (UC). We conducted proteomics analysis for the colon samples using LC/MS, to profile key metabolic intermediates. Our findings revealed significant alterations in four major metabolic pathways: antioxidative defense, β-oxidation, glycolysis, and TCA cycle pathways. The energy metabolism by β-oxidation, glycolysis, and TCA cycle pathways were downregulated under UC, together with reduced antioxidative defense pathways. These results reveal metabolic re-programming in intestinal cells under UC, showing dysregulation in all four major metabolic pathways. Our study underscores the importance of metabolic drivers in the pathogenesis of IBD and suggests that the modification of metabolism may serve as a novel diagnostic/therapeutic approach for IBD.

Exploring genetic associations of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis with extraintestinal cancers in European and East Asian populations. Front Immunol 2024; 15:1339207. [PMID: 38404590 PMCID: PMC10885353 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1339207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Previous studies have reported associations of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) with the risks of extraintestinal cancers, but the causality remains unclear. Methods Using genetic variations robustly associated with CD and UC extracted from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) as instrumental variables. Nine types of extraintestinal cancers of European and Asian populations were selected as outcomes. We used the inverse variance weighted method as the primary approach for two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis. Sensitivity analyses were carried out to evaluate the reliability of our findings. Results In the European population, we found that CD showed a potential causal relationship with pancreatic cancer (OR: 1.1042; 95% CI: 1.0087-1.2088; P=0.0318). Meanwhile, both CD (outliers excluded: OR: 1.0208; 95% CI: 1.0079-1.0339; P=0.0015) and UC (outliers excluded: OR: 1.0220; 95% CI: 1.0051-1.0393; P=0.0108) were associated with a slight increase in breast cancer risk. Additionally, UC exhibited a potential causal effect on cervical cancer (outliers excluded: OR: 1.1091; 95% CI: 1.0286-1.1960; P=0.0071). In the East Asian population, CD had significant causal effects on pancreatic cancer (OR: 1.1876; 95% CI: 1.0741-1.3132; P=0.0008) and breast cancer (outliers excluded: OR: 0.9452; 95% CI: 0.9096-0.9822; P=0.0040). For UC, it exhibited significant causal associations with gastric cancer (OR: 1.1240; 95% CI: 1.0624-1.1891; P=4.7359×10-5), bile duct cancer (OR: 1.3107; 95% CI: 1.0983-1.5641; P=0.0027), hepatocellular carcinoma (OR: 1.2365; 95% CI: 1.1235-1.3608; P=1.4007×10-5) and cervical cancer (OR: 1.3941; 95% CI: 1.1708-1.6599; P=0.0002), as well as a potential causal effect on lung cancer (outliers excluded: OR: 1.1313; 95% CI: 1.0280-1.2449; P=0.0116). Conclusions Our study provided evidence that genetically predicted CD may be a risk factor for pancreatic and breast cancers in the European population, and for pancreatic cancer in the East Asian population. Regarding UC, it may be a risk factor for cervical and breast cancers in Europeans, and for gastric, bile duct, hepatocellular, lung, and cervical cancers in East Asians. Therefore, patients with CD and UC need to emphasize screening and prevention of site-specific extraintestinal cancers.

Abstract
Ephrin B3, a member of Eph/ephrin family, contributes to embryogenesis and carcinogenesis, but few studies have suggested whether this ligand has regulatory effect on colitis. This study was to determine whether ephrin B3 played a role in colitis and colonic carcinogenesis. Dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis and azoxymethane (AOM)/DSS-induced colitis-associated carcinogenesis model was established in Efnb3-deficient (Efnb3-/-) mice. Label-free quantitative proteomics were performed to identify the Efnb3-regulated proteins. Our results showed that Efnb3 knock out reduced the symptoms of DSS-induced colitis, such as disease activity index (DAI), inflammatory factors release, and dysfunction of the intestinal barrier. Quantitative proteomics revealed that Efnb3 regulated 95 proteins which clustered in the platelet degranulation, response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+, MAPK signaling for integrins such as ITGB4. Furthermore, ephrin B3 inactived ITGB4/AKT signal pathway and then promoted epithelial barrier dysfunction. Simultaneously, ephrin B3 promoted Gremlin-1/NF-κB signal pathway and thereby increased inflammatory factors release. In addition, the higher level of Efnb3 in colon cancer patients is correlated with worse survival. Efnb3-/- mice exhibited susceptibility to AOM/DSS-induced colorectal cancer. Our finding discovered that Efnb3 played an important role in the development of colitis and colitis-associated colorectal cancer. Efnb3 deficiency improved the intestinal barrier by ITGB4 and suppressed inflammation via Gremlin-1/NF-κB signal pathway, which may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of colitis and colitis-associated colorectal cancer.

Refined fiber inulin promotes inflammation-associated colon tumorigenesis by modulating microbial succinate production. Cancer Rep (Hoboken) 2023; 6:e1863. [PMID: 37489647 PMCID: PMC10644334 DOI: 10.1002/cnr2.1863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM There is an increased risk of colon cancer associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Dietary fibers (DFs) naturally present in vegetables and whole grains offer numerous beneficial effects on intestinal health. However, the effects of refined DFs on intestinal health remain unclear. Therefore, we elucidated the impact of the refined DF inulin on colonic inflammation and tumorigenesis. METHODS Four-week-old wild-type (WT) mice were fed diets containing insoluble DF cellulose (control) or refined DF inulin for 4 weeks. A subgroup of mice was then switched to drinking water containing dextran sulfate sodium (DSS, 1.4% wt/vol) for colitis induction. In another subgroup of mice, colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CRC) was initiated with three 7-day alternate cycles of DSS following an initial dose of mutagenic substance azoxymethane (AOM; 7.5 mg/kg body weight; i.p.). Post 7 weeks of AOM treatment, mice were euthanized and examined for CRC development. RESULTS Mice consuming inulin-containing diet exhibited severe colitis upon DSS administration, as evidenced by more body weight loss, rectal bleeding, and increased colonic inflammation than the DSS-treated control group. Correspondingly, histological analysis revealed extensive disruption of colon architecture and massive infiltration of immune cells in the inulin-fed group. We next examined the effect of inulin on CRC development. Surprisingly, significant mortality (~50%) was observed in the inulin-fed but not in the control group during the DSS cycle. Consequently, the remaining inulin-fed mice, which completed the study exhibited extensive colon tumorigenesis. Immunohistochemical characterization showed comparatively high expression of the cell proliferation marker Ki67 and activation of the Wnt signaling in tumor sections obtained from the inulin-fed group. Gut microbiota and metabolite analysis revealed expansion of succinate producers and elevated cecal succinate in inulin-fed mice. Human colorectal carcinoma cells (HCT116) proliferated more rapidly when supplemented with succinate in an inflamed environment, suggesting that elevated luminal succinate may contribute to tumorigenesis. CONCLUSIONS Our study uncovers that supplementation of diet with refined inulin induces abnormal succinate accumulation in the intestinal lumen, which in part contributes to promoting colon inflammation and tumorigenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of extracolonic cancer is increased in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, but it is not clear whether there is a causal relationship. We aimed to systematically estimate the causal relationship between IBD and extracolonic cancers. METHODS Independent genetic variants strongly associated with IBD were extracted as instrumental variables from genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted by the International IBD Genetics Consortium including 12,882 IBD patients, 5956 Crohn's disease (CD) patients, and 6968 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. Three sources of cancer GWAS were selected as outcome data. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted to assess the causal effects of IBD on 32 extracolonic cancers. The meta-analysis was applied to assess the combined causal effect with multiple MR results. RESULTS IBD, CD, and UC have potential causal associations with oral cavity cancer (IBD: OR = 1.180, 95% CI: 1.059 to 1.316, P = 0.003; CD: OR = 1.112, 95% CI: 1.008 to 1.227, P = 0.034; UC: OR = 1.158, 95% CI: 1.041 to 1.288, P = 0.007). Meta-analysis showed a significant positive causal relationship between IBD and breast cancer (OR = 1.059; 95% CI: 1.033 to 1.086; P < 0.0001) as well as a potential causal relationship between CD and breast cancer (OR = 1.029; 95% CI: 1.002 to 1.055; P = 0.032) based on combining multiple MR results. CONCLUSIONS This comprehensive MR analysis suggested that genetically predicted IBD, as well as its subtypes, may be a risk factor in the development of oral cavity and breast cancer.

Abstract
As medical management of inflammatory bowel disease makes great advances, most patients with inflammatory bowel disease will have long life expectancies without need for total colectomy. With prolonged disease duration, however, there is increased risk of dysplasia leading to colorectal cancer. Multiple consensus and guideline documents have been published over the last decade with recommendations to optimize early detection and management of dysplastic lesions. Endoscopic technology has improved tremendously, even over the past few years. Previously invisible dysplasia has become visible in most cases with advanced imaging technologies that now allow for much clearer and more detailed mucosal inspection. New tools to facilitate endoscopic resection of visible lesions have also enabled patients to avoid colectomy, with resulting need to continue colon surveillance. There are limited or conflicting data leading to inconsistent recommendations regarding the need for random biopsies, the preferred endoscopic imaging technique, and surveillance intervals after resection of dysplasia. Similarly, there remains significant variability in the application of guidelines into daily practice and availability of and training with advanced imaging technologies. Here, we present a narrative review of which patients are at highest risk for dysplasia, the current guidelines on surveillance colonoscopy, factors affecting optimal mucosal visualization, enhanced imaging techniques, standardized reporting terminologies for surveillance colonoscopy, endoscopic management of dysplasia, indications for colectomy, and briefly on future potential technologies to assist in dysplasia detection.

Abstract
Colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC) is defined as a specific cluster of colorectal cancers that develop as a result of prolonged colitis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Patients with IBD, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are known to have an increased risk of developing CAC. Although the incidence of CAC has significantly decreased over the past few decades, individuals with CAC have increased mortality compared to individuals with sporadic colorectal cancer, and the incidence of CAC increases with duration. Chronic inflammation is generally recognized as a major contributor to the pathogenesis of CAC. CAC has been shown to progress from colitis to dysplasia and finally to carcinoma. Accumulating evidence suggests that multiple immune-mediated pathways, DNA damage pathways, and pathogens are involved in the pathogenesis of CAC. Over the past decade, there has been an increasing effort to develop clinical approaches that could help improve outcomes for CAC patients. Colonoscopic surveillance plays an important role in reducing the risk of advanced and interval cancers. It is generally recommended that CAC patients undergo endoscopic removal or colectomy. This review summarizes the current understanding of CAC, particularly its epidemiology, mechanisms, and management. It focuses on the mechanisms that contribute to the development of CAC, covering advances in genomics, immunology, and the microbiome; presents evidence for management strategies, including endoscopy and colectomy; and discusses new strategies to interfere with the process and development of CAC. These scientific findings will pave the way for the management of CAC in the near future.

[PMID: 37365574 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04079-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have discovered an emerging role of IL11 in various colitis-associated cancers, suggesting that IL11 mainly promotes tumor cell survival and proliferation in regulating tumorigenesis. Herein we aimed to reveal a novel function of IL-11 through STAT3 signaling in regulating tumor immune evasion. METHODS AOM/DSS model in Il11-/- and Apcmin/+/Il11-/- mice were used to detect tumor growth and CD8+ T infiltration. STAT1/3 phosphorylation and MHC-I, CXCL9, H2-K1 and H2-D1 expression were detected in MC38 cells and intestine organoids treated with/without recombinant IL11 to explore effect of IL11/STAT3 signaling, with IL11 mutein used to competitively inhibit IL11 and rescue inhibited STAT1 activation. Correlation between IL11 and CD8+ T infiltration was analyzed using TIMER2.0 website. IL11 expression and survival prognosis was analyzed in clinical data of patient cohort from Nanfang Hospital. RESULTS IL11 is highly expressed in CRC and indicates unfavorable prognosis. IL11 knockout increased CD8+ T cell infiltration and reduced intestinal and colon formation. Tumors were significantly suppressed while MHC-I and CXCL9 expression for CD8+ T infiltration were remarkably increased in the tumor tissues of Apcmin/+/Il11-/- mice or Il11-/- mice induced by AOM/DSS. IL11/STAT3 signaling downregulated MHC-I and CXCL9 by inhibiting IFNγ-induced STAT1 phosphorylation. IL11 mutein competitively inhibit IL11 to upregulate CXCL9 and MHC-I in tumor and attenuated tumor growth. CONCLUSIONS This study ascribes for a new immunomodulatory role for IL11 during tumor development that is amenable to anti-cytokine based therapy of colon cancer.

Abstract
AIM Both the clinical manifestation and molecular characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC) vary according to the anatomical site. We explored the risk factors for four groups of colorectal neoplasms (CRN) at different anatomical sites. METHODS We extracted data from the database of Tianjin Colorectal Cancer Screening Program from 2010 to 2020. According to the CRN anatomical sites, patients were divided into four groups: the proximal colon group, the distal colon group, the rectum group, and the multiple colorectal sites. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to explore the differences in risk factors of CRN at different anatomical sites. RESULTS The numbers of patients with CRN in the proximal colon, distal colon, rectum, and multiple colorectal sites were 4023, 6920, 3657, and 7938, respectively. Male sex was associated with a higher risk from the proximal colon to the rectum. Advanced age and obesity were also significantly associated with overall colorectal CRN risk, but there were some differences between men and women. Smoking was associated with CRN risk only in the distal colon and rectum in both men and women. Frequent alcohol consumption and family history of CRC in first-degree relatives (FDRs) were associated with the risk of multisite colorectal CRN only in males. CONCLUSIONS We observed differences in advanced age, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, and family history of colorectal cancer at different anatomical sites of colorectal neoplasms. These factors vary by gender.

Abstract
Kalimeris indica (L.) Sch Bip (K. indica) is a plant of the genus Kalimeris in Asteraceae, and its whole herb can be used as medicine for the treatment of intestinal inflammatory diseases. But the mechanism is not clear. Therefore, this study was designed to explore the mechanism of K. indica (KI) in colitis-associated colorectal cancer. The expression levels of miR-31-5p and proinflammatory factors were detected using THP-1 and Caco2 cells in vitro. KI could rescue the upregulation of miR-31-5p induced by IL-6 and TNF-α in Caco2 and THP-1 cells. In LPS-stimulated PMA-differentiated THP-1 cells, KI restored miR-31-5p expression by downregulating the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α. C57BL/6 mice were used to construct CAC model through the induction of azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium. The successfully established CAC mice were treated with water extract of KI through intragastric administration for 5 weeks. The result showed that KI could significantly reduce the atypical hyperplasia in colon tissue, and inhibit the expression of proinflammatory factors such as IL-6, TNF, IL-11, IL-7, etc. At the same time, KI could restore the level of miR-31-5p in mice, and therefore the downstream LATS2 to inhibit the development of CAC. These above results indicate that KI is a potentially effective herb medicine to prevent CAC.

Abstract
Fucose, the terminal glycan of the intestinal glycoprotein Mucin2, was shown to have an anti-inflammatory effect in mouse colitis models and modulate immune response due to macrophage polarization changes. In this study we evaluated the effect of 0.05% L-fucose supplementation of drinking water on immune parameters in the intestine of homozygous mutant Muc2-/-, compared to Muc2+/+ mice. To get into innate and adaptive immunity mechanisms of gut inflammation, we tested PrkdcSCIDMuc2-/- strain, Muc2 knockout on SCID background, that is characterized by lack of lymphocytes, in comparison with PrkdcSCID mice. We evaluated intestinal cytokine profiling, macrophage and eosinophil infiltration, and expression of Nos2 and Arg1 markers of macrophage activation in all strains. Markers of Th1, Treg and Th17 cells (Tbx21, Foxp3, and Rorc expression) were evaluated in Muc2-/- and Muc2+/+ mice. Both Muc2-/- and PrkdcSCIDMuc2-/- mice demonstrated increased numbers of macrophages, eosinophils, elevated levels of TNFa, GM-CSF, and IL-10 cytokines. In Muc2-/- mice we observed a wide range of pro-inflammatory cytokines elevated, such as IFN-gamma, IL-1b, IL-12p70, IL-6, M-CSF, G-CSF, IL-17, MCP-1, RANTES, MIP1b, MIP2. Muc2-/- mice demonstrated increase of Nos2, Tbx21 and Foxp3 genes mRNA, while in PrkdcSCIDMuc2-/- mice Arg1 expression was increased. We found that in Muc2-/- mice L-fucose reduced macrophage infiltration and IL-1a, TNFa, IFNgamma, IL-6, MCP-1, RANTES, MIP1b levels, decreased Nos2 expression, and induced the expression of Treg marker Foxp3 gene. On the contrary, in PrkdcSCIDMuc2-/- mice L-fucose had no effect on macrophage and eosinophil numbers, but increased TNFa, GM-CSF, IL-12p70, IL-6, IL-15, IL-10, MCP1, G-CSF, IL-3 levels and Nos2 gene expression, and decreased Arg1 gene expression. We demonstrated that anti-inflammatory effect of L-fucose observed in Muc2-/- mice is not reproduced in PrkdcSCIDMuc2-/-, which lack lymphocytes. We conclude that activation of Treg cells is a key event that leads to resolution of inflammation upon L-fucose supplementation in Muc2-/- mice.

Abstract
A characteristic feature of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is an increased risk of neoplasia and colorectal cancer (CRC). The introduction of screening programs, as well as modern advances in therapy and endoscopic technologies, awareness of the risk factors of IBD-associated CRC will contribute to reducing the frequency of this dangerous complication of IBD. The presented review describes epidemiological data on the incidence of IBD-associated CRC, established risk factors for CRC, as well as modern methods of prevention, screening and early diagnosis. Literature search was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar systems by keywords: inflammatory bowel diseases, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, colorectal cancer, risk factors, screening, endoscopy, dysplasia.

Abstract
AbstractInflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which comprise Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are rising trend in Saudi population. We aim to examine the association between consanguinity and family history and the risk of childhood IBD in Saudi children. A multicenter case–control study conducted in three tertiary hospitals in Jeddah and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, during periods 2009 to 2021. Data about demographics, consanguinity, family history of IBD, and type of IBD were collected using a structured questionnaire. The same questionnaire was applied in matched case–control. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using unconditional logistic regression analysis that was performed to compare both groups. The study population included 335 children: 167 IBD patients (49.9%) and 168 controls (50.1%). Of these IBD, 93 patients (56%) were CD and 74 patients (44%) were UC. Most of participants were females (72.1%) and their age more than 10 years (51.5%). There was first-degree consanguinity in 66 IBD patients (49.6%). No significant difference in first-degree consanguinity between cases and controls was noted (49.6% in cases vs. 50.4% in controls; OR = 1.02; 95% CI = 0.66–1.57). The consanguinity showed a more significant association with CD than UC (p < 0.05). Family history of IBD (father, siblings, and grandparents) as risk factors for IBD was identified: paternal history of IBD (OR = 0.25, 95% CI = 0.08–0.76), siblings' history of IBD (OR = 2.16, 95% CI = 1.92–2.43), and grandparent's history of IBD (OR = 0.22, 95% CI = 0.07–0.65). Family history of IBD showed a more significant association with CD than UC (p < 0.05). Consanguinity is strongly associated with IBD with more significant association with CD than UC and may possibly explain IBD rise in Saudi Arabia. The greatest risk of family history of IBD is in first-degree relatives, especially in siblings' rather than parents and grandparents.

Abstract
Simple Summary Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most serious potential complications of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). The aging of patients affected by IBDs makes this issue a challenge that will increasingly be faced by clinicians in clinical practice, especially in light of the poorer prognosis for CRC in this group of people when compared with the general population. In this review, we summarize the current epidemiology, risk factors and various prevention strategies proposed for CRC in patients with IBDs. Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is currently the third most frequent form of malignancy and the second in terms of mortality. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are recognized risk factors for this type of cancer. Despite a worldwide increase in the incidence of CRC, the risk of CRC-related death in IBD patients has declined over time, probably because of successful surveillance strategies, the use of more effective drugs in the management of remission and improved indications to colectomy. This notwithstanding, CRC 5-year survival in patients with IBD is poorer than in the general population. This review provides a summary of the epidemiological features, risk factors and various prevention strategies proposed for CRC in IBD patients. Moreover, there is a special focus on reporting and highlighting the various prevention strategies proposed by the most important international scientific societies, both in terms of chemoprevention and endoscopic surveillance. Indeed, in conducting the analysis, we have given attention to the current primary, secondary and tertiary prevention guidelines, attempting to emphasize unresolved research and clinical problems related to this topic in order to improve diagnostic strategies and management.

Abstract
Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) are at a two- to three-fold increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC) than the general population based on population-based data. UC-CRC has generated a series of clinical problems, which are reflected in its worse prognosis and higher mortality than sporadic CRC. Chronic inflammation is a significant contributor to the development of UC-CRC, so comprehending the relationship between the proinflammatory factors and epithelial cells together with downstream signaling pathways is the core to elucidate the mechanisms involved in developing of CRC. Clinical studies have shown the importance of early prevention, detection and management of CRC in patients with UC, and colonoscopic surveillance at regular intervals with multiple biopsies is considered the most effective way. The use of endoscopy with targeted biopsies of visible lesions has been supported in most populations. In contrast, random biopsies in patients with high-risk characteristics have been suggested during surveillance. Some of the agents used to treat UC are chemopreventive, the effects of which will be examined in cancers in UC in a population-based setting. In this review, we outline the current state of potential risk factors and chemopreventive recommendations in UC-CRC, with a specific focus on the proinflammatory mechanisms in promoting CRC and evidence for personalized surveillance.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) represent a group of chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract including ulcerative colitis (UC), Crohn’s disease (CD), and unclassified IBDs. The pathogenesis of IBDs is related to genetic susceptibility, environmental factors, and dysbiosis that can lead to the dysfunction of immune responses and dysregulated homeostasis of local mucosal tissues characterized by severe inflammatory responses and tissue damage in GI tract. To date, extensive studies have indicated that IBDs cannot be completely cured and easy to relapse, thus prompting researchers to find novel and more effective therapeutics for this disease. Due to their potent multipotent differentiation and immunomodulatory capabilities, mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) not only play an important role in regulating immune and tissue homeostasis but also display potent therapeutic effects on various inflammatory diseases, including IBDs, in both preclinical and clinical studies. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview on the pathological mechanisms, the currently available therapeutics, particularly, the potential application of MSCs-based regenerative therapy for IBDs.

Recombinant Bifidobacterium longum Carrying Endostatin Protein Alleviates Dextran Sodium Sulfate-Induced Colitis and Colon Cancer in Rats. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:927277.

Abstract
Bifidobacterium has been widely administrated orally as probiotics to prevent pathogen colonization and modulate the gut microbiome balance. Endostatin is an endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis and has been shown to inhibit tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. At present, the combination of endostatin and chemotherapeutic drugs has been regarded as a promising antitumor treatment strategy. In this study, we selected a safe strain of Bifidobacterium longum as a delivery system to transport endostatin to the gastrointestinal tract and explored their combined effect on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colitis-associated cancer. The results indicated that B. longum-Endo relieved dextran sulfate sodium-induced body weight loss, diarrhea, colon shortening, and epithelium damage. Long-term oral administration of B. longum-Endo significantly decreased tumor formation rate, tumor number, and tumor size. Moreover, the effect of B. longum-Endo on gut microbiota dysbiosis was also confirmed by 16S rRNA sequencing analysis. The levels of potentially beneficial bacteria, such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Allobaculum, and Parabateroides, were increased in the B. longum-Endo group compared to the model and B. longum groups. Meanwhile, levels of potentially pathogenic bacteria including Desulfovibrio, Helicobacter, and Enterorhabdus were decreased. Taken together, these results suggested that oral administration of recombinant B. longum-Endo strain may be a promising therapeutic strategy for IBD and colitis-associated cancer.

Abstract
Despite advances in medical therapy, surgery continues to play a vital role in the management of Crohn's disease and its complications. Continuing from Part I of this series (small intestine/ileal disease), we focus next on colonic Crohn's disease and associated neoplasms. We will first review the surgical management of medical-refractory Crohn's colitis and its complications and then examine cancer risk, surveillance, and surgical management of Crohn's-associated colorectal dysplasia and malignancy. We conclude with a discussion of restoration of gastrointestinal continuity following colonic surgery for Crohn's disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Despite the widespread increase in the incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (EoCRC), the reasons for this increase remain unclear. The objective of this study was to determine risk factors for the development of EoCRC. METHODS We conducted a systematic literature review and meta-analysis of studies examining non-genetic risk factors for EoCRC, including demographic factors, comorbidities, and lifestyle factors. Random effects meta-analyses were conducted for risk factors that were examined in at least three studies. Heterogeneity was investigated using the Q-test and I2 statistic. RESULTS From 3304 initial citations, 20 studies were included in this review. Significant risk factors for EoCRC included CRC history in a first-degree relative (RR 4.21, 95% CI 2.61-6.79), hyperlipidemia (RR 1.62, 95% CI 1.22-2.13), obesity (RR 1.54, 95% CI 1.01-2.35), and alcohol consumption (high vs. non-drinkers) (RR 1.71, 95% CI 1.62-1.80). While smoking was suggestive as a risk factor, the association was not statistically significant (RR 1.35, 95% CI 0.81-2.25). With the exception of alcohol consumption, there was considerable heterogeneity among studies (I2 > 60%). Other potential risk factors included hypertension, metabolic syndrome, ulcerative colitis, chronic kidney disease, dietary factors, sedentary behaviour, and occupational exposure to organic dusts, but these were only examined in one or two studies. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study advance the understanding of the etiology of EoCRC. High-quality studies conducted on generalizable populations and that comprehensively examine risk factors for EoCRC are required to inform primary and secondary prevention strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recommendations regarding management of colorectal dysplasia in the setting of IBD continue to evolve. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the rate of progression from dysplasia to adenocarcinoma, specifically focusing on the differences in unifocal and multifocal low-grade dysplasia and dysplasia found on random biopsy versus targeted biopsies. DESIGN This is a retrospective review. SETTING This study was conducted at an IBD referral center. PATIENTS All adult patients (≥18 years of age) with a known diagnosis of either ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, who underwent a surveillance colonoscopy between January 1, 2010 and January 1, 2019, were selected. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES The primary outcomes measured were the progression of dysplasia and the risk factors for progression. RESULTS A total of 23,751 surveillance colonoscopies were performed among 12,289 patients between January 1, 2010 and January 1, 2019. The mean age at colonoscopy was 52.1 years (SD 16.9 years), 307 patients (2.5%) had a history of primary sclerosing cholangitis, and 3887 (3.15%) had a family history of colorectal cancer. There was a total of 668 patients (5.4%) with low-grade dysplasia, 76 patients (0.62%) with high-grade dysplasia, and 68 patients (0.55%) with adenocarcinoma in the series. The 1-, 2-, and 5-year cumulative incidence rate of progressing from low-grade dysplasia to high-grade dysplasia were 1.6%, 4.8%, and 7.8%. The 1- and 2-year cumulative incidence rates of progressing from low-grade dysplasia to adenocarcinoma were 0.7% and 1.6%. There were no significant differences in unifocal and multifocal progression. Primary sclerosing cholangitis, ulcerative colitis, male sex, and advanced age were all found to be significant risk factors for neoplasia on multivariable analysis. LIMITATIONS A retrospective database was a source of information. CONCLUSION Progression of low-grade dysplasia to adenocarcinoma, regardless of its being unifocal or multifocal, remains very low in the setting of adequate surveillance and medical management. The presence of multifocal low-grade dysplasia should not change the decision making to pursue ongoing endoscopic surveillance versus proctocolectomy. Patients who had primary sclerosing cholangitis with dysplasia found on random biopsies may be at highest risk for dysplasia progression. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/A649. EL DESENLACE DE LA DISPLASIA DE BAJO GRADO UNIFOCAL VERSUS MULTIFOCAL DURANTE LA COLONOSCOPIA EN PACIENTES CON ENFERMEDAD INFLAMATORIA INTESTINAL ANTECEDENTES:Las recomendaciones para el tratamiento de la displasia colorrectal en el contexto de la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal siguen evolucionando.OBJETIVO:Determinar la tasa de progresión de displasia a adenocarcinoma, centrándose específicamente en las diferencias en displasia de bajo grado unifocal y multifocal, y displasia encontradas en biopsias aleatorias versus biopsias dirigidas.DISEÑO:Revisión retrospectiva.ÁMBITO:Centro de referencia de EII.PACIENTES:Todos los pacientes adultos (> 18 años) con un diagnóstico comprobado de colitis ulcerosa o enfermedad de Crohn que se sometieron a una colonoscopia de vigilancia entre el 1 de enero de 2010 y el 1 de enero de 2019.PRINCIPALES VARIABLES ANALIZADAS:Progresión de la displasia y factores de riesgo de progresión.RESULTADOS:Se realizaron un total de 23.751 colonoscopias de vigilancia en 12.289 pacientes entre el 1/1/2010 y el 1/1/2019. La edad media en el momento de la colonoscopia fue de 52,1 años (DE 16,9 años), 307 pacientes (2,5%) tenían antecedentes de colangitis esclerosante primaria y 3887 (3,15%) tenían antecedentes familiares de cáncer colorrectal. Hubo un total de 668 pacientes (5,4%) con displasia de bajo grado, 76 pacientes (0,62%) con displasia de alto grado y 68 pacientes (0,55%) con adenocarcinoma en la serie. La tasa de incidencia acumulada de 1, 2, 5 años de progresión de displasia de bajo grado a displasia de alto grado fue del 1,6%, 4,8% y 7,8%. Las tasas de incidencia acumulada de 1 y 2 años de progresión de displasia de bajo grado a adenocarcinoma fueron 0,7% y 1,6%, respectivamente. No hubo diferencias significativas en la progresión unifocal y multifocal. Se encontró que la colangitis esclerosante primaria, la colitis ulcerosa, el sexo masculino y la edad avanzada eran factores de riesgo significativos de neoplasia en el análisis multivariable.LIMITACIONES:Base de datos retrospectiva.CONCLUSIÓN:La progresión de la displasia de bajo grado a adenocarcinoma, independientemente de que sea unifocal o multifocal, sigue siendo muy baja en el contexto de una vigilancia y un tratamiento médico adecuados. La presencia de displasia multifocal de bajo grado no debería cambiar la toma de decisión para continuar con vigilancia endoscópica continua o realizar la proctocolectomía. Los pacientes con colangitis esclerosante primaria y displasia encontrada en biopsias aleatorias pueden tener una mayor progresión de la displasia.

Occurrence of Colorectal Cancer and the Influence of Medical Treatment in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Danish Nationwide Cohort Study, 1997 to 2015. Inflamm Bowel Dis 2021; 27:1795-1803.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has previously been investigated with conflicting results. We aimed to investigate the incidence and risk of CRC in IBD, focusing on its modification by treatment. METHODS All patients with incident IBD (n = 35,908) recorded in the Danish National Patient Register between 1997 and 2015 (ulcerative colitis: n = 24,102; Crohn's disease: n = 9739; IBD unclassified: n = 2067) were matched to approximately 50 reference individuals (n = 1,688,877). CRC occurring after the index date was captured from the Danish Cancer Registry. Exposure to medical treatment was divided into categories including none, systemic 5-aminosalicylates, immunomodulators, and biologic treatment. The association between IBD and subsequent CRC was investigated by Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier estimates. RESULTS Of the IBD patients, 330 were diagnosed with CRC, resulting in a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.15 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-1.28) as compared with the reference individuals. However, when excluding patients diagnosed with CRC within 6 months of their IBD diagnosis, the HR decreased to 0.80 (95% CI, 0.71-0.92). Patients with ulcerative colitis receiving any medical treatment were at significantly higher risk of developing CRC than patients with ulcerative colitis who were not given medical treatment (HR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.01-1.81), whereas a similar effect of medical treatment was not observed in patients with Crohn's disease or IBD unclassified. CONCLUSIONS Medical treatment does not appear to affect the risk of CRC in patients with IBD. The overall risk of developing CRC is significantly increased in patients with IBD as compared with the general population. However, when excluding patients diagnosed with CRC within 6 months of their IBD diagnosis, the elevated risk disappears.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To update changes in the epidemiology of colorectal cancer in patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease over the past decades. RECENT FINDINGS Since the mid twentieth century, studies have found that the incidence of colorectal cancer in patients with IBD has been greater than that of the general population, especially for patients with a family history of colorectal cancer, a diagnosis of primary sclerosing cholangitis, and/or pancolitis. While Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are still associated with a risk of colorectal cancer, current treatment approaches and surveillance measures have markedly reduced the risk according to population-based cohort studies such that the risk is now more comparable to that of the general population. It is predicted that by 2025, more than two million patients will be living with inflammatory bowel disease in the United States. As advanced treatment options become available to achieve histologic remissions and as surveillance techniques to detect neoplasia improve, guidelines for surveillance will continue to evolve.

Abstract
AIM Experience of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for colorectal lesions in the setting of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains limited. The aim of this work was to determine the safety, feasibility and oncological outcomes of ESD in patients with IBD. METHOD A retrospective review of all adult patients (≥18 years) with a known diagnosis of either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) who underwent advanced colonoscopy and ESD between 1 January 2014 and 1 October 2020. Data collected included patient demographics, disease characteristics, pathological variables and procedure-related complication rates. RESULTS A total of 25 patients were included: 19 (76%) were male with a median age of 63 years and disease duration of more than 10 years. Sixteen had UC and nine had CD; the majority were taking corticosteroids, immunomodulators or monoclonal antibodies at the time of ESD. The median procedure time was 41 min and the majority (n = 18; 72%) utilized chromoendoscopy. The median lesion size was 30 mm: eight had low-grade dysplasia, nine had high-grade dysplasia and three had adenocarcinoma and underwent oncological resection. None had surgical intervention for complication of ESD or perforation. A total of 23 (88%) had a complete R0 resection. Over a median follow-up of 19 months, three were found to have dysplasia excised in polyps and none had subsequent adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSION ESD in the setting of IBD is safe and effective for complete removal of large neoplastic lesions, allowing for ongoing endoscopic surveillance and organ preservation rather than surgical intervention.

Abstract
Patients with colonic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), and are therefore enrolled into a surveillance programme aimed at detecting dysplasia or early cancer. Current surveillance programmes are guided by clinical, endoscopic or histological predictors of colitis-associated CRC (CA-CRC). We have seen great progress in our understanding of these predictors of disease progression, and advances in endoscopic technique and management, along with improved medical care, has been mirrored by the falling incidence of CA-CRC over the last 50 years. However, more could be done to improve our molecular understanding of CA-CRC progression and enable better risk stratification for patients with IBD. This review summarises the known risk factors associated with CA-CRC and explores the molecular landscape that has the potential to complement and optimise the existing IBD surveillance programme.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Complete histologic normalization is associated with improved clinical outcomes in ulcerative colitis (UC). However, it is currently unknown what effect achieving histologic normalization has on the development of dysplasia. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 495 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of UC from a tertiary center. Patients were categorized according to the best histologic assessment they had during their disease course: histologic normalization, histologic quiescence, or persistent histologic activity. We assessed dysplasia rates in these patient groups after achieving histologic normalization or histologic quiescence, or 8 years after UC diagnosis in those with persistent histologic activity. Kaplan-Meier graphs and Cox regression analyses were performed to estimate this effect. RESULTS The incidence rate of dysplasia development after achieving histologic normalization was statistically significantly less when compared with the incidence rate after achieving histologic quiescence (P = 0.001) and in those with persistent histologic activity 8 years after UC diagnosis (P = 0.033). In multivariate analysis, at any point throughout UC duration, dysplasia development was statistically lower in those with histologic normalization (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.32; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.13-0.81) but not in those with histologic quiescence (aHR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.25-1.10), compared with those with persistent histologic inflammation. When assessing the time after achieving histologic normalization, histologic quiescence, or 8 years post UC diagnosis in those with persistent histologic activity, we found that patients with histologic normalization had a subsequent decreased risk of developing dysplasia (aHR, 0.09; 95% CI, 0.01-0.72), compared with patients without normalization. CONCLUSIONS Histologic normalization is associated with a decreased risk in patients with UC of developing subsequent dysplasia, compared with patients without histologic normalization. These findings have implications for surveillance intervals.

Abstract
The risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) is higher in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Population-based data from patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) estimate that the risk of CRC is approximately 2- to 3-fold that of the general population; patients with Crohn's disease appear to have a similar increased risk. However, the true extent of colitis-associated cancer (CAC) in undertreated IBD is unclear. Data suggest that the size (i.e., severity and extent) and persistence of the inflammatory process is largely responsible for the development of CRC in IBD. As patients with IBD and CRC have a worse prognosis than those without a history of IBD, the impact of current therapies for IBD on CAC is of importance. Chronic inflammation of the gut has been shown to increase the risk of developing CAC in both UC and CD. Therefore, control of inflammation is pivotal to the prevention of CAC. This review presents an overview of the current knowledge of CAC in IBD patients, focusing on the role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of CAC and the potential for IBD drugs to interfere with the process of carcinogenesis by reducing the inflammatory process or by modulating pathways directly involved in carcinogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: microRNAs (miRs) regulate the expression of protein-coding genes and play key roles in various biological processes, including development and immunity. However, dysregulation of miR expression is also involved in disease biology, including cancer. METHODS: We utilized The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and other publicly available databases for miRs and mRNA expression in prostate cancer, selected miR-484 and investigated its role in prostate cancer biology and disease progression using in vitro studies. RESULTS: Our data mining efforts revealed that increased miR-484 in prostate tumors associates with early disease recurrence, while miR-484 expression in human prostate cancer cells enhances cancer cell mobility. Using RNAseq and bioinformatics, we identified candidate target genes of miR-484 and generated a list of potential tumor suppressors. One candidate in this list was PSMG1. We applied luciferase assays and immunoblotting to confirm that miR-484 directly targets PSMG1. Additional in vitro assays with cancer cell lines showed that PSMG1 knockdown rescued the reduction in mobility brought on by miR-484 inhibition, pointing toward the existence of a miR-484–PSMG1 axis in prostate cancer. CONCLUSIONS: We hypothesize that miR-484 is an oncogene in the prostate that increases cancer cell mobility, with PSMG1 being a mir-484 target in this process.

Abstract
Macrophages, which are functional plasticity cells, have the ability to phagocytize and digest foreign substances and acquire pro-(M1-like) or anti-inflammatory (M2-like) phenotypes according to their microenvironment. The large number of macrophages in the intestinal tract, play a significant role in maintaining the homeostasis of microorganisms on the surface of the intestinal mucosa and in the continuous renewal of intestinal epithelial cells. They are not only responsible for innate immunity, but also participate in the development of intestinal inflammation. A clear understanding of the function of macrophages, as well as their role in pathogens and inflammatory response, will delineate the next steps in the treatment of intestinal inflammatory diseases. In this review, we discuss the origin and development of macrophages and their role in the intestinal inflammatory response or infection. In addition, the effects of macrophages in the occurrence and development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and their role in inducing fibrosis, activating T cells, reducing colitis, and treating intestinal inflammation were also reviewed in this paper.

Abstract
Simple Summary Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease affecting both young and elderly patients, involving the entire gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to anus. The chronic transmural inflammation can lead to several complications, among which gastrointestinal cancers represent one of the most life-threatening, with a higher risk of onset as compared to the general population. Moreover, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in this subset of patients still represent a significant challenge for physicians. Thus, the aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current evidence for an adequate diagnostic pathway and medical and surgical management of CD patients after gastrointestinal cancer onset. Abstract Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with a progressive course, potentially affecting the entire gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. Several studies have shown an increased risk of both intestinal and extra-intestinal cancer in patients with CD, due to long-standing transmural inflammation and damage accumulation. The similarity of symptoms among CD, its related complications and the de novo onset of gastrointestinal cancer raises difficulties in the differential diagnosis. In addition, once a cancer diagnosis in CD patients is made, selecting the appropriate treatment can be particularly challenging. Indeed, both surgical and oncological treatments are not always the same as that of the general population, due to the inflammatory context of the gastrointestinal tract and the potential exacerbation of gastrointestinal symptoms of patients with CD; moreover, the overlap of the neoplastic disease could lead to adjustments in the pharmacological treatment of the underlying CD, especially with regard to immunosuppressive drugs. For these reasons, a case-by-case analysis in a multidisciplinary approach is often appropriate for the best diagnostic and therapeutic evaluation of patients with CD after gastrointestinal cancer onset.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to determine the rate of progression from dysplasia to adenocarcinoma in ulcerative colitis [UC] vs Crohn's diseases [CD] and describe the risk factors unique to each. METHODS All adult patients [≥18 years] with a known diagnosis of either UC or CD who underwent a surveillance colonoscopy between January 1, 2010 and January 1, 2020 were included. RESULTS A total of 23 751 surveillance colonoscopies were performed among 12 289 patients between January 1, 2010 and January 1, 2020; 6909 [56.2%] had a diagnosis of CD and 5380 [43.8%] had a diagnosis of UC. There were a total of 668 patients [5.4%] with low-grade dysplasia [LGD], 76 patients [0.62%] with high-grade dysplasia [HGD], and 68 patients [0.55%] with adenocarcinoma in the series; the majority of the dysplastic events were located in the right colon. Significantly more UC patients had a dysplastic event, but the rate of LGD and HGD dysplasia progression to adenocarcinoma was not significantly different in CD or UC [p = 0.682 and p = 1.0, respectively]. There was no significant difference in the rate of progression from LGD/HGD to adenocarcinoma based on random biopsies vs targeted biopsies of visible lesions [p = 0.37]. However, the rate of progression from LGD vs HGD to adenocarcinoma was significantly greater for HGD [p < 0.001]. CONCLUSION While more UC patients were found to have neoplasia on colonoscopy, the rate of progression from LGD and HGD to adenocarcinoma was equivalent in UC and CD, suggesting that endoscopic surveillance strategies can remain consistent for all IBD patients.

Abstract
One of the most feared complications of inflammatory bowel disease [IBD]-associated colitis is colorectal cancer. When considering the substantial increase in the prevalence of IBD, without any anticipated decline, coupled with decreasing colectomy rates for dysplasia and expanding medical options for effectively controlling inflammation, it is predicted that the pool of people living with-and ageing with-colonic IBD, who are recommended to undergo lifelong colonoscopic surveillance for colorectal neoplasia, will strain existing resources and challenge the sustainability of current guideline-based surveillance recommendations. At the same time, we are missing the opportunity for early detection in a group that is overlooked as high-risk, as a substantial proportion of colorectal cancers are being diagnosed in individuals with colonic IBD who have disease duration shorter than when guidelines recommend surveillance initiation. Here, we reappraise: 1] inflammation as a dynamic risk factor that considers patients' cumulative course; 2] time of screening initiation that is not based primarily on absolute disease duration; and 3] surveillance intervals as an iterative determination based on individual patient factors and consecutive colonoscopic findings. This Viewpoint supports a paradigm shift that will ideally result in a more effective and higher-value colorectal cancer prevention approach in IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of chromoendoscopy (CE) and high definition endoscopy (HDE) has improved detection of subtle colonic dysplasia in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). The role of random biopsies for dysplasia surveillance is unclear. METHODS We reviewed patients with IBD who underwent a CE or HDE colonoscopy and had colonic dysplasia detected. Detection of dysplasia was classified as either visible or random and graded as low grade dysplasia (LGD), high grade dysplasia (HGD), or indefinite for dysplasia. Multivariable regression adjusted for relevant confounders examined the predictors of dysplasia detectable on random biopsies alone. RESULTS The study included 300 patients (203 ulcerative colitis, 97 Crohn's disease with colonic involvement) contributing 442 colonoscopies; the mean disease duration was 24.5 years; 7.2% had primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Three hundred sixty-two colonoscopies (82%) had only visible dysplasia, 52 (12%) had only random dysplasia, and 28 (6%) had both visible and random dysplasia. Longer disease duration (odds ratio, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.01-1.07), active inflammation (odds ratio, 2.89; 95% CI, 1.26-6.67), and concomitant PSC (odds ratio, 3.66; 95% CI, 1.21-11.08) were associated with detecting dysplasia on random biopsies compared with visible lesions. Patients with random dysplasia (21%) or both random and visible dysplasia (21%) were more likely to undergo surgical resection compared with those with only visible dysplasia (5%; P < 0.001) and have subsequent development of colorectal cancer (15%, 7%, 1%, respectively; P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Nearly one fifth of dysplasia detected in patients with IBD was found on random biopsies. Patients with high risk characteristics may benefit from continuing the practice of random biopsies during surveillance examinations.

Abstract
Recent data have suggested that bariatric procedures, especially laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG), are safe and effective weight loss measures in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). But most of the studies have looked at short-term outcomes, and there is a general lack of awareness of underlying disease processes and baseline comorbidities in IBD patients undergoing bariatric procedures. Postbariatric issues in IBD patients including diarrhea from dumping syndrome, choleretic diarrhea, a high prevalence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, gastroesophageal reflux disease, Barrett's esophagus, stomal ulcerations, stenosis, and renal and gallstones can complicate the natural history of IBD. This could lead to unnecessary hospitalizations, change of medical therapy, and poor surgical and quality of life outcomes. In this review, we will discuss major complications after common bariatric procedures (SG, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and gastric banding) and suggest possible management strategies.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is a complex immune-mediated disease of the gastrointestinal tract that increases morbidity and negatively influences the quality of life. Intestinal mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) have a crucial role in maintaining epithelial barrier integrity while controlling pathogen invasion by activating an appropriate immune response. However, in genetically predisposed individuals, uncontrolled immune activation to intestinal flora is thought to underlie the chronic mucosal inflammation that can ultimately result in IBD. Thus, MNPs are involved in fine-tuning mucosal immune system responsiveness and have a critical role in maintaining homeostasis or, potentially, the emergence of IBD. MNPs include monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells, which are functionally diverse but highly complementary. Despite their crucial role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis, specific functions of human MNP subsets are poorly understood, especially during diseases such as IBD. Here we review the current understanding of MNP ontogeny, as well as the recently identified human intestinal MNP subsets, and discuss their role in health and IBD.

Abstract
Increasing evidence suggest the significance of inflammation in the progression of cancer, for example the development of colorectal cancer in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) patients. Long-lasting inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract causes serious systemic complications and breaks the homeostasis of the intestine, where the altered expression of regulatory genes and miRNAs trigger malignant transformations. Several steps lead from acute inflammation to malignancies: epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and inhibitory microRNAs (miRNAs) are known factors during multistage carcinogenesis and IBD pathogenesis. In this review, we outline the interactions between EMT components and miRNAs that may affect cancer development during IBD.

Abstract
Previous studies have implicated protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type O (PTPRO) as a key regulator in inflammation-associated diseases; however, its role in ulcerative colitis (UC) remains largely unknown. Thus, we aim to elucidate the potential role and underlying mechanism of PTPRO in UC. In this study, increased expression of PTPRO, toll-like receptor (TLR4) and inflammatory cytokines were observed in mucosal tissues (MTs) from inflamed areas and lamina propria mononuclear cells (LPMCs) of patients with UC compared with those from healthy controls. Then, it was manifested that PTPRO promoted the expression of TLR4 and proinflammatory cytokines in lipopolysaccharide-induced (LPS-induced) inflammatory macrophage model. Besides, PTPRO inhibited the proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) but enhanced the apoptosis of IECs in macrophages. Moreover, levels of phosphorylated nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)/p65 and inhibitor of NF-κB α (IκBα) were more significantly increased in PTPRO overexpressed macrophages. In addition, the area under receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.807 (95%CI = 0.686-0.958, P < .001) suggesting PTPRO as an ideal diagnostic marker for UC. Taken these, the present study shows strong evidence that PTPRO exaggerates inflammation in UC via TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are the most prevalent diseases of the digestive system, and their association is unequivocal. A long-standing inflammatory process is one of the causes of sporadic as well as inherited cancers as it impacts on malignant transformation in a wide variety of neoplastic diseases, including colorectal cancer. Methods An extensive publication search was performed in Medline and PubMed database. The keywords: colorectal carcinoma, inflammation, Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis and inflammatory bowel disease were used. Results The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2) and toll like receptor (TLR) signaling pathways are clearly involved in the inflammatory process and are therefore implicated in the transformation of normal colonic mucosa to premalignant and malignant disease. Focal sites of inflammation could significantly increase the risk of initiation and development of cancer. Altered inflammatory activity is likely to be a result of either a disturbance of intestinal bacterial flora or an inadequate cellular response to it. Additionally, increasing the level of inflammation-related factors may also interfere with the control of cellular proliferation. Conclusions This review shows an overview of the genetic and environmental factors that appear to influence both the occurrence of IBD and CRC with particular reference to NOD2 and TLRs as well as pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines associated with tumor initiation and progression (encompassing both tumor invasion and metastases), as they constitute potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
This article begins with a brief overview of risk factors for colorectal neoplasia in inflammatory bowel disease to concretize the approach to risk stratification. It then provides an up-to-date review of diagnosis and management of dysplasia in inflammatory bowel disease, which integrates new and emerging data in the field. This is particularly relevant in an era of increased attention to cost- and resource-containment from the health systems vantage point, coupled with a heightened prioritization of patient quality of life and shared decision-making. Also provided is a brief discussion of the status of newer therapeutic techniques, such as endoscopic submucosal dissection.
