Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), significantly increases the risk for development of colorectal cancer. Specifically, dysplasia and cancer associated with IBD (colitis-associated cancer or CAC) develop as a result of repeated cycles of injury and healing in the intestinal epithelium. Animal models are utilized to examine the mechanisms of CAC, the role of epithelial and immune cells in this process, as well as the development of novel therapeutic targets. These models typically begin with the administration of a carcinogenic compound, and inflammation is caused by repeated cycles of colitis-inducing agents. This review describes a common CAC model that utilizes the pro-carcinogenic compound azoxymethane (AOM) followed by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) which induces the inflammatory insult.

Background: The aim of this study was to determine whether inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with the risk of developing prostate cancer (PCa) through a population-based study.
Materials And Methods: Male patients aged ≥40 years, diagnosed with IBD from 2010 to 2013 and without IBD were identified and followed-up till 2019. A matched cohort of male patients with and without IBD in a ratio of 1:4 was created based on age, income level, and Charlson comorbidity index.

Background And Objective: Cancer is one of the most difficult diseases facing modern medicine, and increasing amounts of research and clinical treatments are being applied to the treatment of cancer. Immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy, has revolutionized the treatment and overall survival of patients with several different types of cancer. Approximately one-third of patients treated with ICIs may experience immune-related adverse events (irAEs).

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC), an inflammatory disease characterized by intestinal barrier dysfunction, poses significant challenges because of the toxicity and adverse effects commonly associated with conventional therapies. Safer and more efficacious treatment strategies are needed.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to treat UC with Folium Artemisiae Argyi exosome-like nanovesicles (FAELNs) and to explore its related mechanism to provide a safer and more effective means for the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Heart-Immune-Brain Network Research Center, Department of Life Sciences, Ewha Womans University, Seoul, Korea.
Purpose: Ninjury-induced protein 1 (Ninj1) is associated with inflammation and tumor progression and shows increased expression in various cancers. This study aimed to investigate the role of Ninj1 in colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CRC) by focusing on its interaction with 17β-estradiol (E2).
Materials And Methods: Using an azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) mouse model of colitis-associated CRC, wild-type (WT) and Ninj1 knockout (KO) male mice were treated with or without E2.
