Abstract
Retinoids, derivatives of Vitamin A, are responsible for inducing differentiation and
inhibiting cell growth in colon cancer . Retinoic Acid (RA) is unable to inhibit the growth of
cells that become RA-resistant through alteration in metabolism or the loss of retinoic acid or
retinoic “X” receptor activity. We investigated the ability of the more physiologically
relevant retinoid, retinol, to inhibit the growth of RA-resistant colon cancer cell lines,
determined the bioactive metabolites produced within these cells, and the mechanism by
which growth is inhibited. HCT-116, SW620, and WiDr cells were treated with 0 (control),

Colon Cancer :It’sTime to Talk
Colorectal cancer begins in the colon or rectum. The colon is a long muscular tube that
connects the small intestine to the rectum. Cancer can begin in any part of the colon , but
before cancer develops, changes usually occur in the organ’s lining. One change is a tissue
growth called a polyp, which is a benign growth that can become malignant (cancerous) over
time. Once detected, a polyp may be removed, preventing it from becoming cancerous.
Who is at risk?
• People over 50
• People with a personal history of colon or rectal cancer or chronic inflammatory
bowel disease
• People with a strong family history of colon or rectal cancer or polyps, or any type of
cancer
• People who are physically inactive
