Abstract

Aspirin [1], also known as acetylsalicylic acid, is a common non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). The available evidence shows that aspirin can effectively prevent and treat diseases such as rectal, gastric, ovarian, prostate, and lung cancer. Aspirin has been extensively studied for the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer. In recent years, studies have found that the potential mechanism of aspirin in the prevention and treatment of cancer may lie in immune regulation, the role of DNA repair pathways, the regulation of cell metabolism, anti-inflammatory effects and antiplatelet effects.

期刊介绍： Cancer Treatment and Research Communications is an international peer-reviewed publication dedicated to providing comprehensive basic, translational, and clinical oncology research. The journal is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, policy, and treatment of cancer and provides a global forum for the nurturing and development of future generations of oncology scientists. Cancer Treatment and Research Communications publishes comprehensive reviews and original studies describing various aspects of basic through clinical research of all tumor types. The journal also accepts clinical studies in oncology, with an emphasis on prospective early phase clinical trials. Specific areas of interest include basic, translational, and clinical research and mechanistic approaches; cancer biology; molecular carcinogenesis; genetics and genomics; stem cell and developmental biology; immunology; molecular and cellular oncology; systems biology; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; cancer policy; and integration of various approaches. Our mission is to be the premier source of relevant information through promoting excellence in research and facilitating the timely translation of that science to health care and clinical practice.
