糖饮料可能通过激活一种关键酶, 加速直肠癌传播到肝脏。 一项新的研究发现。 Sugary drinks may speed colorectal cancer spread to the liver by activating a key enzyme, a new study finds.

得克萨斯大学的一项研究发现,甘蔗饮料中的葡萄糖-纤维糖混合物可能会加速先进的直肠癌的传播,特别是实验室模型中的肝脏。 A University of Texas study finds that the glucose-fructose mix in sugary drinks may accelerate advanced colorectal cancer spread, especially to the liver, in lab models. 这种结合在苏打水和果汁中很常见,激活了一种酶,与增加的癌症细胞流动性和胆固醇路径相关联,促进转移。 The combination, common in sodas and fruit juices, activates an enzyme linked to increased cancer cell mobility and cholesterol pathways, promoting metastasis. 堵住这种酶,即使含糖也缩小了传播范围,这说明有潜在的治疗目标。 Blocking this enzyme reduced spread even with sugar present, suggesting a potential treatment target. 在《自然代谢》上发表的研究结果表明,糖饮料可能会加剧癌症的发病,而与肥胖无关,这促使人们呼吁重新考虑病人饮食准则。 The findings, published in Nature Metabolism, indicate sugary drinks may worsen cancer progression independently of obesity, prompting calls to reconsider dietary guidelines for patients. 虽然需要进行人类试验,但结果突出表明,作为癌症预防和管理的一部分,限制含糖饮料摄入非常重要。 While human trials are needed, the results highlight the importance of limiting sugary drink intake as part of cancer prevention and management.
