Curcumin for the Chemoprevention of Colorectal Cancer

ABSTRACT: Specific Aims: * To determine if curcuminoids modulate cellular proliferation as measured by proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in the colorectal mucosa of subjects with previously resected adenomatous colonic polyps. Hypothesis: Curcuminoids decrease cellular proliferation in the colorectal mucosa of subjects with previously resected sporadic adenomatous colonic polyps. * To determine if curcuminoids modulate apoptosis, as measured by TUNEL assay, in the colorectal mucosa of subjects with previously resected adenomatous colonic polyps. Hypothesis: Curcuminoids increase apoptosis in colorectal mucosa of subjects with previously resected sporadic adenomatous colonic polyps. * To determine if curcuminoids modulate COX-2 expression as measured by immunohistochemical assays in subjects with previously resected adenomatous colonic polyps Hypothesis: Curcuminoids decrease colorectal mucosa COX-2 expression in subjects with previously resected sporadic adenomatous colonic polyps. * To determine if curcuminoids modulate COX-2 activity as measured by urinary eicosanoids Hypothesis: Curcuminoids decrease concentrations of urinary eicosanoids.

Gene expression profiling of colorectal tissues in the early adenoma-carcinoma sequence

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Colorectal polyps are recognised pre-cursors of CRC, however hyperplastic polyps lack malignant potential. The purpose of this study was to identify differences in gene expression between normal colonic mucosa, hyperplastic and adenomatous polyps from disease-free individuals. By comparing polyps believed to have malignant potential (adenomatous polyps) with hyperplastic polyps it is hoped that new insights into colorectal carcinogenesis can be achieved. 24 colonic samples comprising 8 normal colonic mucosa, 8 hyperplastic polyps and 8 adenomatous polyps.

Expression data from hyperplastic polyps and normal colonic mucosa from patients with familial and sporadic HPPS

Project description:Expression data from hyperplastic polyps and normal colonic mucosa from patients with familial and sporadic hyperplastic polyposis syndrome (HPPS). We aim to characterize at a molecular level a cohort of hyperplastic lesions from HPPS patients with and without family history. RNA from hyperplastic polyps and normal colonic mucosa (proximal and distal) from patients with familial and sporadic HPPS were included in this study. Total RNA was isolated from each tissue sample, quantified and its quality evaluated. cRNA preparation, hybridization and analysis of results was performed according to Affymetrix recommendations. cRNA was hybridised in the GeneChip array (Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0, Affymetrix), and the intensity was measured.

Transcription profiling of human pedunculated, sporadic colorectal polyps and corresponding normal mucosa obtained during colonoscopies

Project description:Background: Colorectal cancers are believed to arise predominantly from adenomas. Although these precancerous lesions have been subjected to extensive clinical, pathological, and molecular analyses, little is currently known about the global gene expression changes accompanying their formation. Results: To characterize the molecular processes underlying the transformation of normal colonic epithelium, we compared the transcriptomes of 32 prospectively collected adenomas with those of normal mucosa from the same individuals. Important differences emerged not only between the expression profiles of normal and adenomatous tissues, but also between those of small and large adenomas. A key feature of the transformation process was the remodeling of the Wnt pathway reflected in patent over- and underexpression of 78 known components of this signaling cascade. Conclusions: Our transcriptomic profiles of normal colonic mucosa and colorectal adenomas shed new light on the early stages of colorectal tumorigenesis. Experiment Overall Design: Pedunculated, sporadic colorectal polyps and corresponding normal mucosa were obtained during colonoscopies. The tissues were collected prospectively with informed patient consent and the approval of the local Human Research Ethics Committee.

Exon Array Analysis of Asthmatic Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps

Project description:Asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (aCRSwNP) is a common disruptive eosinophilic disease. Therefore, we sought to identify gene expression changes in nasosinus inflamed mucosa and adjacent polyp tissue from subjects with aCRSwNP. Twelve asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis (aCRS) subjects (11 with nasal polyps; aCRSwNP) provided inflamed nasosinus mucosa (11 samples) and adjacent polyp (10 samples) or a small mixed mucosa and polyp specimen (1 sample) (thus, 22 samples overall). Inflamed mucosa or polyp was from the middle meatus or anterior ethmoid cavity. As control samples, nasosinus tissue was collected from the inferior turbinate or uncinate process from normal or rhinitis subjects without nasal polyps (n=17); 4 had physician-diagnosed allergic rhinitis (AR), 2 had suspected AR, 1 had suspected vasomotor rhinitis, and 10 had no signs of nasosinus disease, allergy, or atopy. All 4 AR subjects chose to donate tissue outside of their known allergy season(s).

Bioenergetic Alterations in Colorectal Polyp and Cancer

Project description:Background: The change of cellular energy metabolism in colorectal carcinogenesis is poorly understood. It is widely accepted tht most, if not all, colorectal cancers (CRCs) arise from adenomatous polyps (APs). Our aim was to characterize the mitochondrial and bioenergetic alternations in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence. Results: Two glycolysis-related genes, aldolase B (ALDOB) and solute carrier family 16 member 4 (SLC16A4), were upregulated in polyps. This result was further confirmed by the real-time PCR analysis showing that the both ALDOB and SLC16A4 mRNA expressions were higher in the polyps with villous component compared with their adjacent normal mucosa.

Transcription profiling by array of Apc+/Delta716 mouse intestinal polyps vs normal intestinal mucosa

Project description:The APC (Adenomatous Polyposis Coli) gene encodes a large multidomain protein that plays an integral role in the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. The loss-of-function mutation in APC is considered the earliest genetic alteration in the course of adenoma-carcinoma sequence of colorectal cancer progression, and the resulting constitutive activation of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling is required for the maintenance of advanced colorectal cancer. In order to identify genes affected by loss of Apc function, we performed transcription profiling of mouse small intestinal tissues comparing polyps with normal mucosa of Apc+/Delta716 mice. We isolated total RNA from intestinal polyps and normal intestinal mucosa from 3 individual Apc+/Delta716 mice. Total RNA samples were then employed to perform microarray analysis (Agilent Whole Mouse Genome Microarray Ver. 2.0, 4x44K).
