Objective: To develop a targeting protein for Xenopus kinesin-like protein 2 (TPX2) C' terminal SBP-3 x Flag-tagged HCT 116 cell model.
Methods: Homologous arms were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and then the adeno-associated virus (AAV) -targeting vector of TPX2 was constructed. HCT 116 cells were targeted after the viruses were packaged. Positive cell clones with neomycin resistance gene were obtained by G418 and PCR screening. Finally, the neomycin gene cassette was excised after the targeted clones were infected with adenovirus expressing Cre-recombinase, and the TPX2 C' terminal SBP and 3 x Flag endogenous double-tagged HCT 116 cells were obtained by PCR screening.
Results: Two positive cell clones with neomycin resistance gene were obtained by PCR screening. The positive clones with neomycin resistance gene excised were obtained by Cre adenovirus infection, and the knock-in of SBP-3 x Flag gene was verified by Western blot analysis.
Conclusion: The TPX2 C' terminal SBP-3 x Flag tagged HCT 116 cell model was successfully established.

Epidemiological studies suggest an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) aggravation in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our previous study demonstrated that indoxyl sulfate, a uremic toxin whose concentration increases with CKD progression, exacerbates CRC through activation of the AhR and Akt pathways. Consequently, indoxyl sulfate has been proposed to be a significant link between CKD progression and CRC aggravation.

Background: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) zinc finger protein 667-antisense RNA 1 () is closely related to the advancement of a variety of cancers, but its functional role in colorectal cancer remains unclear. This study was designed to explore the function and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA in colorectal cancer.
Methods: Reverse transcriptase real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used for the detection of and proline-rich nuclear receptor co-activator protein 2 () expression level.

Novel thiazole analogs 3a, 3b, 4, 5, 6a-g, 8a, 8b, 9a-c, 10a-d and 11 were designed and synthesized as molecular mimetics of sunitinib. antitumor activity of the obtained compounds was investigated against HepG2, HCT-116, MCF-7, HeP-2 and HeLa cancer cell lines. The obtained data showed that compounds 3b and 10c are the most potent members toward HepG2, HCT-116, MCF-7 and HeLa cells.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) affects the population worldwide, occupying the first place in terms of death and incidence. Synthetic peptides (SPs) emerged as alternative molecules due to their activity and low toxicity. Proteomic analysis of PepGAT-treated HCT-116 cells revealed a decreased abundance of proteins involved in ROS metabolism and energetic metabolisms, cell cycle, DNA repair, migration, invasion, cancer aggressiveness, and proteins involved in resistance to 5-FU.

Unlabelled: Colorectal cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies worldwide and a leading cause of mortality. Chemotherapy medications are often limited in use due to issues like drug resistance, P-glycoprotein efflux, and relapse of chemotherapy. In this study, we formulated a nanosuspension with curcumin and nimbin to address these limitations and assessed its anticancer potential using molecular docking and MTT assay.
