ALOX15 as a suppressor of inflammation and cancer: Lost in the link.
Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators 2017 September
Mounting evidence supports a mechanistic link between inflammation and cancer, especially colon cancer. ALOX15 (15-lipoxygenase-1) plays an important role in the formation of key lipid mediators (e.g., lipoxins and resolvins) to terminate inflammation. ALOX15 expression is downregulated in colorectal cancer (CRC). Intestinally-targeted transgenic expression of ALOX15 in mice inhibited dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis from promoting azoxymethane- induced colorectal tumorigenesis, demonstrating that ALOX15 can suppress inflammation-driven promotion of carcinogen-induced colorectal tumorigenesis and therefore ALOX15 downregulation during tumorigenesis is likely to enhance the link between colitis and colorectal tumorigenesis. ALOX15 suppressed the TNF-α, IL-1β/NF-κB, and IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathways, which play major roles in promotion of colorectal cancer by chronic inflammation. Defining ALOX15's regulatory role in colitis-associated colorectal cancer could identify important molecular regulatory events that could be targeted to suppress promotion of tumorigenesis by chronic inflammation.
