Some colorectal cancer patients have experienced normal epithelial transformation into inflammatory and tumor states, but the molecular basis still needs to be further determined. The expression levels of SIX4 are gradually increased in dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) and azoxymethane (AOM)/DSS-induced colonic epithelial inflammation and tumors, respectively, in mice. Targeting SIX4 alleviates intestinal inflammation occurrence and reduces adenoma formation in mice.
