Abstract
Chronic inflammation has been shown to contribute to several diseases including colorectal cancer, which is the third leading death cancer in the world. During the past several decades, scientific research on biology of inflammation-induced colorectal cancer has been raised to become a mainstream of biomedical investigation and pharmaceutical development. Due to the important role played by inflammation in common diseases, attempting to prevent or treat them by suppressing the cellular and chemical mediators is an active area of medical research. Most of the prevailing approaches include steroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and immune selective anti-inflammatory derivatives are fraught with side effects. There is an urgent need for an alternative, effective, and well-tolerated treatment with negative side effects, such as the natural compound therapy. Healthy diet includes low intake of carbohydrates and fats (high percentage of unsaturated fat), high intake of fruits and vegetables, and more physical excises. Moreover, bioactive compounds in food or diet, nutrients, are essential for the prevention of inflammation-induced colorectal cancer from in vitro cells and in vivo animal models, and loss of nutrients can lead to more serious illness. The mediators and signaling pathways of inflammation-induced colorectal cancer have been alleviated by the interaction with bioactive food components, which play a crucial role in the development, treatment or prevention of inflammation-induced colorectal cancer.
