Background: MUTYH DNA glycosylase germline mutations are linked to the recessive inheritance of multiple adenoma. Studies have revealed that germline mutations in this gene are ethnicity related. This study aimed to identify the germline mutations in MUTYH gene and determine their prevalence among Jordanian patients with colorectal adenoma.
Methods: In this study, 150 colorectal adenoma patients and 150 cancer-free individuals with no previous history of polyps were recruited. Sanger DNA sequencing of the MUTYH gene (accession number NG_008189.1) was carried out using 3130xL Genetic Analyzer. Sequencing results were analyzed by ChromasPro, and mutational effects were predicted by online bioinformatics tools.
Results: Two novel variants, g.87C>T and c.1264G>C, were identified. g.87C>T was also found in 60 (40%) patients and 10 (6.7%) controls. However, c.1264G>C was detected in 90 (60%) patients and 7 (4.7%) controls. Thus, a significant association was observed between these two variants and colorectal adenoma (p value for both variants was <0.0001). Moreover, the newly identified germline variant, c.1264G>C, was found to be significantly associated with colorectal adenoma transformation into malignancy (p < 0.0001).
Conclusion: The data showed high prevalence of two germline mutations in MUTYH gene among Jordanians with colorectal adenoma, which may make them as potential early biomarkers for diagnosis of colorectal adenoma.

Alpha-glucosidase inhibitor decreases the risk of colorectal adenoma in the aged with Type 2 diabetes.

The rapidly aging population is fueling a surge in diabetes, especially Type 2, which heightens colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. Colorectal adenoma, a precursor, compounds this trend. Although alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are effective hypoglycemic drugs working in the GI tract, the link between them and colorectal adenoma formation remains unexplored.

The aim of this study was to investigate the biomarkers of salivary and fecal microbiota in Colorectal cancer (CRC). Initially, the study scrutinized the microbial community composition disparities among groups. Utilizing Lasso analysis, it sifted through operational taxonomic units (OTUs) to pinpoint distinctive features.

The tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC) often follows the normal-adenoma-carcinoma (N-A-C) sequence. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying colorectal adenoma carcinogenesis remain largely unknown. Here, we analyzed transcriptomic profile changes in normal, advanced adenoma, and carcinoma tissues from patients with CRC, revealing that glutamic-pyruvic transaminase 1 () in colorectal tissues was down-regulated during the N-A-C process and correlated with poor CRC prognosis.

Background: Gasdermin D (GSDMD) is a key effector molecule that activates pyroptosis through its N terminal domain (GSDMD-NT). However, the roles of GSDMD in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been fully explored. The role of the full-length GSDMD (GSDMD-FL) is also not clear.

Background/aim: This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy (DA) for colorectal adenomas (CRA), screened by fecal immunochemical test (FIT), using five artificial intelligence (AI) models: logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), neural network (NN), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting machine (GBM). These models were tested together with clinical features categorized as low-risk (lowR) and high-risk (highR).
Patients And Methods: The colorectal neoplasia (CRN) screening cohort of 5,090 patients included 222 CRA patients and 264 non-CRA patients.
