Abstract

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease, is known to increase the risk of colitis-associated cancer (CAC). CAC has been found to be unresponsive to standard chemotherapy regimens, and the current treatments do not utilize effective small-molecule drugs and colon-targeted delivery systems. Previous studies indicated that the M13-nano-liposome (NL) formulation can effectively target the colon and reshape the gut microbiota in ex vivo cultures, generating altered microbial metabolites that can efficiently prevent chronic UC. In this study, we tested the cancer cell uptake ability of the NL formulation and investigated the potential of the M13-NL formulation to prevent CAC in the azoxymethane (AOM)-exposed IL10 mouse model. Our findings demonstrate that oral administration of M13-NL prevents tumor development in AOM-exposed IL10 mice, suggesting that M13-NL is a promising oral drug formulation for preventing CAC.
