In Vitro Model CT26 Mouse colon adenocarcinoma Mus musculus (Mouse) CVCL_7254
In Vivo Model Eight-week old female C57BL/6 mice were supplied by Pasteur Institute (Tehran, Iran) and divided into four groups (n = 6 each): control, treated with 5-FU, or crocin, or a 5-FU/crocin combination. Mice were given a single intraperitoneal injection of AOM (10 mg/kg body weight followed by three cycles of 1.5% DSS in drinking water for 1 week and normal drinking water for 2 weeks.
Result We demonstrated an antitumor activity of crocin in CRC and its potential role in improvement of inflammation with mucosal ulcers and high-grade dysplastic crypts, supporting the desireability of further investigations on the therapeutic potential of this approach in CRC.
