The present study aimed to investigate the effects of silencing RIP1 by small interfering RNA (siRNA) on the biological behavior of the LoVo human colorectal carcinoma cell line and to provide evidence for the feasibility of colorectal cancer gene therapy. LoVo cells were divided into the RIP1 siRNA group, the blank control group and the negative control group. Chemically synthesized siRNA targeting RIP1 (RIP1 siRNA) was transfected into LoVo cells. Following transfection of the RIP1-targeted siRNA into the LoVo cells, the expression of the RIP1 gene was effectively inhibited. The results demonstrated that RIP1 effectively regulated the malignant biological behavior of the LoVo colon cancer cell line. Furthermore, the proliferation, motility and invasiveness of LoVo cells were inhibited by siRNA knockdown of RIP1. The results revealed that the RIP1 gene has an important role in the regulation of proliferation and apoptosis in colorectal carcinoma cells.

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.

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is the standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Pathological complete regression is closely linked to disease outcomes. However, biomarkers predicting nCRT response and patient survival are lacking for LARC.

Maggots contain various kinds of polysaccharides and recent studies mostly concentrated on their anti-inflammatory functions. While the molecule mechanisms related to the polysaccharides inhibiting carcinogenesis remains unclear. Here we characterized the polysaccharides extracted from maggot (MEs) determining their anti-colon cancer potentials.

In this research, a series of novel hydrazone derivatives based on pyrazolopyridothiazinylacetohydrazide were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic potency on several human colon cancer cells (HTC116, HT-29, and LoVo). After MTT and SRB assays four of the most active derivatives: hydrazide GH and hydrazones GH7, GH8, and GH11, were chosen for further investigation. Hydrazone GH11 had the highest cytotoxic activity (IC values of c.

Objectives: To determine growth inhibitory and anti-cancer effects of Cannabigerol (CBG) in human colorectal cancer cells.
Methods: Anti-proliferative effect of CBG was examined using MTT assay and two colorectal cancer cells (SW480 and LoVo cells). Cell death ratio was analyzed using Annexin V/PI staining experiment.
