Abstract
One of the most prevalent cancers throughout the world is colorectal cancer (CRC).
Natriuretic peptides are important hormones that have a crucial role in the physiology of humans
and other animals. There are a variety of treatments for colon cancer. However, conventional
therapies have many side effects and low efficacy in the treatment of this disease. Atrial Natriuretic
Peptide (ANP) is one of the most well-known natriuretic peptides involved in regulating
blood pressure and blood volume. Studies have demonstrated that ANP has a therapeutic effect
on different cancer types. The anti-tumor effect of ANP is exerted by inhibiting DNA synthesis
but not inducing apoptosis. The anti-proliferative role of ANP has been reported in human
breast, prostate, colon, pancreatic, lung, and ovarian cancer and in many other tumors. Therefore,
we review the recent papers on natriuretic peptides in CRC as a common malignancy in
adults to assess the pathways of ANP involved in the progression of CRC and its effects on the
prevention or treatment of CRC and other cancer types.
期刊介绍:
In recent years a breakthrough has occurred in our understanding of the molecular pathomechanisms of human diseases whereby most of our diseases are related to intra and intercellular communication disorders. The concept of signal transduction therapy has got into the front line of modern drug research, and a multidisciplinary approach is being used to identify and treat signaling disorders.
The journal publishes timely in-depth reviews, research article and drug clinical trial studies in the field of signal transduction therapy. Thematic issues are also published to cover selected areas of signal transduction therapy. Coverage of the field includes genomics, proteomics, medicinal chemistry and the relevant diseases involved in signaling e.g. cancer, neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases. Current Signal Transduction Therapy is an essential journal for all involved in drug design and discovery.
