Core Tip |
Today it is still unclear which are the most effective forms of probiotics administration at long-term to reduce the incidence of human colorectal cancer (CRC) or which microorganisms are the most suitable; the amount, time and frequency that should be consumed in the diet. Also, which is their influence on side effect from chemotherapy in CRC? Herein we show, for the first time, that probiotics have a positive impact on the overall survival of rats with CRC under capecitabine treatment. These animals have also a benefit in weight gain, clinical manifestations, developing cancer, number, localization and tumor burden. |
