Abstract:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumor worldwide. Capsaicin and cold exposure were positively correlated with CRC metastasis. However, the mechanisms of action underlying capsaicin and cold exposure in 1,2-dimethylhyrazine (DMH)-induced CRC remain unknown. Multiple assays were utilized in the present study, including methylene blue, hematoxylin eosin (H&E) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining, western blotting and Duolink proximity ligation assay (PLA), in order to assess the influence of capsa… Show more
