  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In wild-type mice with AOM/DSS-induced colitis-associated cancer, KPV prevented carcinogenesis.

    In plain wordsIn mice, KPV helped prevent tumours that arise from long-term gut inflammation.

    Summary
    The use of an anti-inflammatory tripeptide KPV (Lys-Pro-Val) transported by PepT1 was able to prevent carcinogenesis in WT mice.

    Summary · context
    Mice with hPepT1 overexpression in intestinal epithelial cells (TG) or PepT1 (PepT1-KO) deletion were used and CAC was induced by AOM/DSS.
  2. 02AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In PepT1-knockout mice, KPV did not trigger the inhibitory effect on tumorigenesis seen in wild-type mice.

    In plain wordsIn mice that lack the PepT1 transporter, KPV did not reduce tumour development as it did in normal mice.
