Study links gut bacteria to precancerous growth, paving the way for microbial testing of colorectal cancer risk
SINGAPORE – A new study led by a team of local researchers has found that certain types of gut bacteria are associated with certain precancerous colorectal polyps. Polyps are growths on the lining of the colon that can become cancerous over time if not removed. This finding raises the possibility of using microbial testing kits […]
Gut bacteria may be an indicator of colon cancer risk – UW Medicine
a Research published today The journal Cell Host & Microbe reported that an increased presence of certain bacteria in the gut biome indicates that colon polyps are more likely to become cancerous. In his research, William DePaoloAn associate professor at the University of Washington School of Medicine found that patients who underwent routine colonoscopies and […]
AI scope helps inexperienced doctors find colon polyps
Researchers found that polyp detection was significantly improved when less experienced physicians performed AI-assisted colonoscopies. Using AI in this diagnostic tool may reduce the likelihood of missing these potential precursors of colorectal cancer. The addition of AI has enhanced several medical diagnostic tools such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI. Now it’s colonoscopy’s turn to receive […]
Cholesterol production may promote colorectal cancer growth
Credit:KATERYNA KON/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY/Getty Images Previous studies have shown a link between high blood cholesterol levels and various cancers, including colorectal cancer. However, it is not clear whether lowering cholesterol can prevent colorectal cancer. Now, Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have shown that hard-to-detect colorectal precancerous lesions known as serrated polyps exist in mice, and that […]
Targeting cholesterol metabolism for the treatment of serrated colorectal tumors
Hard-to-detect colorectal precancerous lesions known as serrated polyps and the aggressive tumors that develop from them are linked to increased production of cholesterol, according to preclinical studies by Weill Cornell Medicine researchers. It depends a lot. This finding points to the possibility of using cholesterol-lowering drugs to prevent or treat such tumors. In a study […]
Colorectal cancer in the region will decline as more patients undergo colonoscopies
Caitlin Fuhr-Pessin, MD Scheduling a colonoscopy may seem like a daunting task to some, but this test is the most treatable and often curable test for colorectal cancer. It is a lifesaver for many people because it can be detected early. Thanks to cancer screening and removal of precancerous polyps, the diagnosis rate for colon […]
Study points to potential use of cholesterol-lowering drugs to treat aggressive colorectal tumors
