With the aging of the population, the incidence of colorectal cancer in China is increasing. One of the epigenetic alterations: CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) plays an important role in the incidence of colorectal cancer. Recent studies have shown that CIMP is closely related to some specific clinicopathological phenotypes and multiple molecular phenotypes in colorectal cancer. In this paper, the newest progress of CIMP colorectal cancer in chemotherapeutic drugs, targeted agents and small molecular methylation inhibitors are going to be introduced. We hope to provide potential clinical treatment strategies for personalized and precise treatment of colorectal cancer patients.
随着人口老龄化,中国结直肠癌的发病率正在上升。表观遗传改变之一:CpG岛甲基化表型(CIMP)在结直肠癌的发病中起重要作用。最近的研究表明,CIMP与结直肠癌的一些特定临床病理表型和多种分子表型密切相关。本文将介绍CIMP结直肠癌在化疗药物、靶向药物和小分子甲基化抑制剂方面的最新进展。我们希望为结直肠癌患者的个性化精准治疗提供潜在的临床治疗策略。
