대장암에 대한 butyrate의 효과

초록

Due to the high incidence of cancer and cancer-related mortality in Korea, there is increased concern and psychological anxiety about this disease, leading to increasing numbers of cancer studies. Despite these, the trend of the cancer incidence rate has shown a significant increase. The detection of colorectal cancer, which has a high incidence rate, often tends to be delayed, causing a high mortality rate. Therefore, the prevention of colorectal cancer has become an important emergent issue. The cause of this cancer has not been confirmed. However, it may be attributable to westernized dietary patterns, which include consuming a high quantity of red meat. Consumption of dietary fiber promotes the production of butyrate short-chain fatty acids by enteric bacteria. In the treatment of cancer, anticancer medications have been shown to lead to the apoptosis of tumor cells, and a strong relationship between apoptosis mechanisms of tumor cells and cancer treatment has been confirmed. The results of many studies have confirmed that butyrate can directly promote the apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells. Therefore, increased consumption of dietary fiber, which promotes the production of butyrate short- chain fatty acids, can be expected to have an effect on the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer.
