Aim And Objective: Interleukin-6 has become an attractive protein target. This is found in the progression of colon cancer. It performs various functions in the colon cancer cells such as inflammation, activates various cell types signaling and also promotes proliferation in colon cancer cells. It is a valid target to develop anticolon cancer drug. The purpose of our study is to develop the Three-dimensional Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (3D-QSAR) models, pharmacophore modeling and docking study as well as MD simulation to find out the novel potent inhibitors that bind with Interleukin-6 in colon cancer treatment.
Material And Methods: In this study, common pharmacophore models and atom-based 3D-QSAR studies were carried out by using 1,4-benzothiazine derivatives with their experiential GI50values towards HT-29 human colon cancer cell line.
Results: The common pharmacophore model (ADHR26) was developed and the survival score was found to be 3.828. The generated pharmacophore-based alignment was used to develop a predictive atom-based 3D-QSAR model by using Partial Least Square (PLS) method. Phase predictable activity and LogGI50 also exhibited the most significant atomic position in the backbone structure of ligands for anticolon cancer activity. Molecular dynamic and docking studies for the IL-6 target provide key framework of ligand for the anticolon cancer activity.
Conclusion: Finally, results generated from the work data, that exhibited the pharmacophore models and 3D-QSAR hypothesis might be a path of milestone in the area of medicinal chemistry to researchers for further design of new and potent IL-6 inhibitors.

Background: Early anal canal cancer is frequently treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) to preserve anal function. However, if the lesion is in the anal canal, then significant difficulties such as bleeding and challenges associated with scope manipulation can arise.
Case Summary: A 70-year-old woman undergoing follow-up after transverse colon cancer surgery was diagnosed with anal canal cancer extending to the dentate line.

Background: Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is a malignancy with a high mortality rate and complex biological characteristics and heterogeneity, which poses challenges for clinical treatment. Anoikis is a type of programmed cell death that occurs when cells lose their attachment to the extracellular matrix (ECM), and it plays a crucial role in tumor metastasis. However, the specific biological link between anoikis and COAD, as well as its mechanisms in tumor progression, remains unclear, making it a potential new direction for therapeutic strategy research.

Background: Polydatin (3,4',5-trihydroxy-3-β-d-glucopyranoside, PD) is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Oxaliplatin (OXA)-based chemotherapy is the first-line treatment for metastatic and recurrent colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the lack of selectivity for normal cells often results in side effects.

Introduction: Various reports have confirmed that low skeletal muscle mass, a proxy marker of sarcopenia, can be a risk factor for surgical and oncological outcomes in colon cancer. We aimed to investigate the effects of skeletal muscle mass index (SMMI) on postoperative complications, overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS) in older patients with colon cancer who underwent elective curative colon resections.
Materials And Methods: Patients over 65 years old with stage I-III colon cancer who underwent elective curative colon resections between January 2015 and December 2023 were included in this single-center retrospective longitudinal study.

Background: The colon and rectum are highly innervated, with neural components within the tumor microenvironment playing a significant role in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. While perineural invasion (PNI) is associated with poor prognosis in CRC, the impact of nerve density and diameter on tumor behavior remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of nerve characteristics in CRC and to verify the impact of nerves on tumor growth.
