Core Tip |
This review article will summarize the risk factors and current treatment paradigms for colorectal cancer, with an emphasis on the role of targeted chemotherapy and chemoprevention as they relate to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) blockade. It will include an overview of the structure and function of EGFR as well as intracellular pathways regulated by its activity. It will discuss how various EGFR ligands are upregulated in the presence of Western diets that are high in saturated and N-6 unsaturated fat, and will outline the various mechanisms of EGFR inhibition observed with several naturally occurring chemopreventative agents including ginseng, green tea, and curcumin. |
