Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide, occurring in the colon or rectum portion of large intestine. With marked antioxidant, anti-inflammation and anti- tumor activities, Camellia nitidissima Chi has been used as an effective treatment of cancer. The azoxymethane/dextran sodium sulfate (AOM/DSS) induced CRC mice model was established and the prevention effect of Camellia nitidissima Chi extracts on the evolving of CRC was evaluated by gross examination, histopathological inspection, serum biochemistry analysis, combined with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolomics and correlation network analysis. The results showed that Camellia nitidissima Chi extracts could significantly inhibit AOM/DSS induced CRC, relieve the colonic pathology and ameliorate the serum biochemistry, and could signiﬁcantly reverse the disturbed metabolism towards the normal state. Moreover, the butanol fraction showed a better efficiency than the water-soluble fraction of Camellia nitidissima Chi. The study pave the way for further development of Camellia nitidissima Chi extracts as a potent CRC inhibitor. In this work, rats were divided into control group, carcinoma group, and two drug groups of JHC and CNC. The acronyms JHC means the water-soluble fraction of Camellia nitidissima Chi. The acronyms CNC means the butanol fraction of Camellia nitidissima Chi.
