Correlation of IL-8 with induction, progression and metastatic potential of colorectal cancer

Abstract: AIM:To investigate the expression profile of IL-8 in inflammatory and malignant colorectal diseases to evaluate its potential role in the regulation of colorectal cancer (CRC) and the development of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM).METHODS: IL-8 expression was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR (Q-RT-PCR) and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in resected specimens from patients with ulcerative colitis (UC, n = 6) colorectal adenomas (CRA, n = 8), different stages of colorectal cancer (n = 48)… Show more

“…These results are in agreement with previous data showing down-regulation of these cytokines in rats fed with phytosteryl ferulates, a possible precursor of HCAF [43]. IL-8 is up-regulated in patients with ulcerative colitis [44] and has been correlated with colorectal carcinogenesis [45]. In our experiments IL-8 was decreased by HCAF treatment almost to control levels.…”

“…IL8 is also closely related with cancer (Lokshin et al, 2006). The study by Rubie et al suggest an association between IL-8 expression, induction and progression of colorectal carcinoma and the development of colorectal liver metastases (Rubie et al, 2007). In accordance with previous findings, IL8-related domain was significantly enriched in present study.…”

“…the expression of il-8 in tumor tissue significantly correlated with tumor size, depth of infiltration and liver metastasis, and tumor stage. 26,27 ueda et al 28 reported that serum il-6 levels correlated closely with serum il-8 and ca 19-9 levels. our results show a similar correlation between il-6 and il-8 serum levels but did not find a correlation with ca 19-9. similar to il-8, Vegf is also a pleiotropic cytokine triggering inflammatory, immunoresponse, and cancerogenic effects.…”
