Synthesized colonoscopy dataset from high-fidelity virtual colon with abnormal simulation.

With the advent of the deep learning-based colonoscopy system, the need for a vast amount of high-quality colonoscopy image datasets for training is crucial. However, the generalization ability of deep learning models is challenged by the limited availability of colonoscopy images due to regulatory restrictions and privacy concerns. In this paper, we propose a method for rendering high-fidelity 3D colon models and synthesizing diversified colonoscopy images with abnormalities such as polyps, bleeding, and ulcers, which can be used to train deep learning models.

Aspirin Inhibits Carcinogenesis of Intestinal Mucosal Cells in UC Mice Through Inhibiting IL-6/JAK/STAT3 Signaling Pathway and Modulating Apoptosis and Proliferation.

Background: Colorectal cancer is related to ulcerative colitis. This study aimed to investigate the effects of aspirin on non-specific inflammation developing into cancer.

Methods: Ulcerative colitis model was generated by administrating azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium to mice.

Long non-coding RNA-KCNQ1OT1 mediates miR-423-5p/microfibril-associated protein 2 axis in colon adenocarcinoma.

Backgrounds: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) function as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) that contribute to carcinogenesis. Herein, we plan to explore whether lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 modulated miR-423-5p/microfibril-associated protein 2 (MFAP2) signaling axis is implicated in the progression of human colon adenocarcinoma.

Material And Methods: Clinical specimens were collected for histologic examination and gene expression analysis.

Glucagon-like peptide (GLP) -2 improved colonizing bacteria and reduced severity of ulcerative colitis by enhancing the diversity and abundance of intestinal mucosa.

The global incidence of ulcerative colitis (UC) continues to increase while it's clinical cure rate remains low. Intestinal mucosal ulcers have segmental distribution and variable severity. Intestinal bacteria are closely related to intestinal immunity and metabolism; however, the relationship between intestinal microbiome profile and the occurrence of UC, as well as the contribution of glucose metabolism, are not well understood.

IL-6/STAT3/SOCS3 signaling pathway playing a regulatory role in ulcerative colitis carcinogenesis.

Objective: Large-scale clinical studies have shown that ulcerative colities were related with colorectal cancer. In this study, animal model was established by AOM/DSS method to explore the activation of IL-6-STAT3-SOCS3 signaling pathway and the expression of pathway-related proteins in ulcerative colitis carcinogenesis, in order to lay a foundation for exploring the regulation mechanism of IL-6/STAT3/SOCS3 signaling pathway in ulcerative colitis carcinogenesis.

Method: AOM/DSS modeling method was used to establish animal models of ulcerative colitis carcinogenesis; colonic mucosa specimens were collected at different time points for pathological examination.
