|
| In this exploratory biomarker analysis of the BEACON Colorectal Cancer study, researchers characterized genomic and transcriptomic correlates of clinical outcomes and acquired resistance mechanisms through integrated clinical and molecular analysis. [Nature Medicine] |
|
|
|
| By combining analysis of primary human intestinal resection material and intestinal organoids, the authors identified four distinct human tuft cell states, two of which overlap with their murine counterparts. [Nature] |
|
|
|
| A pH and reactive oxygen species (ROS) dual-responsive autocatalytic release system was constructed to reverse the immunosuppressive microenvironment and potentiate colorectal cancer immunotherapy. [Advanced Materials] |
|
|
|
| Investigators uncovered a novel regulatory mechanism where hyodeoxycholic acid and 12-ketodeoxycholic acid inhibited colonic inflammation by reducing the expression of transmembrane guanylate cyclase 1A in the colonic epithelium. [Advanced Science] |

|
Selenium was protective against radiation colitis through inhibiting X-ray-induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and inflammation with the involvement of balancing the generation of reactive oxygen species after the irradiation. [Advanced Science] |
| | Single cell multi-omics uncovered epigenetic alterations that accompany enteroendocrine cells (EEC) differentiation, identified STAT3 as a regulator of EEC specification, and discovered a rare cancer-specific cell type with enteric neuron-like characteristics. [Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Scientists developed a hydrogel platform for confined copper depletion in BRAFV600E-mutant colorectal cancer cells, which effectively reversed dabrafenib/cetuximab resistance and enhancing therapeutic efficiency. [Journal of Controlled Release] |
|
|
|
| Investigators performed a Phase I dose-escalation study of pembrolizumab and the angiopoietin 1/2 inhibitor trebananib. This multicenter trial enrolled patients with metastatic ovarian cancer or microsatellite stable colorectal cancer. [Cancer Immunology Research] |
|
|
|
| Researchers developed a bivalent DOTA-radiohapten, Lu-Gemini, that showed improved radiopharmacology for DOTA-based pretargeted radioimmunotherapy application. [Journal of Nuclear Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Disruption in Wnt-Notch signaling was accompanied by the loss of intestinal stem cell compartment, increase in Bmi1 positive cells, loss of Olfm4/Lgr5 positive cells, and reduced secretory Paneth cells and goblet cells in the intestinal crypts of p21TKO mice. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors provide an overview of intestinal tuft cells, providing insights into their development, signaling, and interaction modules in immunity and other states. [Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology] |
|
|
|
| Investigators discuss how different diets and metabolic changes influence intestinal stem cells in homeostatic and pathological conditions, as well as tumorigenesis. [Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology] |
|
|
|
| The authors describe the current and emerging clinical evidence supporting the use of neoadjuvant immune-checkpoint inhibitors in patients with DNA mismatch repair deficiency and proficient DNA mismatch repair colorectal cancer, and the potential advantages of such an approach.

|
| Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center were awarded a $3 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to improve follow-up care for colorectal cancer screening in underserved populations. [UCLA Health] |
