Hyperinsulinemia may increase the risk of colorectal neoplasia because of its mitogenic and antiapoptotic properties, which have a growth-promoting effect. We examined the association between circulating concentrations of C-peptide, a biomarker of insulin secretion, and colorectal adenoma prevalence in a case-control study of Korean adults. A total of 364 participants (112 cases and 252 control...
OBJECTIVES Obesity is associated with the activation of the molecular pathways that increase the risk of colorectal cancer. Increasing body mass index may accelerate the development of adenomatous polyps, the antecedent lesion of colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the BMI effect on the risk of colonic polyp and adenoma in African-American. METHODS The records of 923 patien...
OBJECTIVE Vitamin D is a potential agent for the prevention of colorectal cancer possibly through mechanisms mediated by the vitamin D receptor (VDR). We investigated the association of circulating vitamin D metabolites and a genetic variant of the VDR gene with advanced colorectal adenoma, a precursor lesion of colorectal cancer. METHODS Cases with advanced adenoma of the distal large bowel ...
BACKGROUND An oxidative balance score (OBS) that combines pro- and antioxidant exposures was previously reported to be associated with incident sporadic colorectal adenoma. We extend the previous analyses by assessing associations of the OBS and colorectal adenoma with circulating biomarkers of oxidative stress [F2-isoprostanes (FIP) and fluorescent oxidation products (FOP)], and inflammation [...
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) promotes colorectal carcinogenesis. Overall, systemic PGE2 production can be assessed by measuring its major metabolite, PGE-M, in urine. We examined the potential role of PGE-M as a biomarker for colorectal adenoma risk and chemopreventive response to anti-inflammatory drugs. We conducted a prospective case-control study nested within the Nurses' Health Study. Among wom...
Cigarette smoking is a risk factor for colorectal adenoma, a precursor of colorectal cancer. Microsomal epoxide hydrolase (EPHX1) metabolizes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, carcinogens found in cigarette smoke. Nonsynonymous variants of EPHX1 at Tyr(113)His (exon 3) and His(139)Arg (exon 4) are associated, respectively, with low ((113)His) and high ((139)Arg) predicted activity. Among partic...
Evidence remains inconclusive about the association of systemic inflammatory markers with colorectal neoplasia. We investigated whether circulating inflammatory markers were associated with risk of advanced colorectal adenoma. We measured plasma macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1 (MIC-1), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL6), and soluble TNF receptor 2 (sTNFR-2) in blood samples drawn fr...
Colonoscopy is the cornerstone of colorectal cancer screening programs. There is significant variability in the quality of colonoscopy between endoscopists. Colonoscopy quality assessment tracks various metrics to improve the effectiveness of colonoscopy, aiming at reducing the incidence and mortality from colorectal cancer. Adenoma detection rate is the prime metric, because it is associated w...
AIM Colonoscopy to detect and remove polyps has contributed to a reduction in colorectal carcinoma. Three-year follow up is recommended for patients considered to be at high risk (at least three adenomas, adenoma ≥ 1 cm, villous or high-grade features). Our study focused on patients diagnosed with high-grade dysplasia with regard to initial management and follow up. METHOD A search of patient...
BACKGROUND Vitamin B6, whose main circulating form is pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), is important in one-carbon metabolism, which is critical for DNA synthesis and DNA methylation, both of which are potentially involved in colorectal carcinogenesis. However, no previous epidemiologic studies have directly evaluated the association of plasma PLP with risk for colorectal neoplasia. METHODS We co...
