Limiting oxidative DNA damage reduces microbe-induced colitis-associated colorectal cancer

It is unclear how microbial-induced inflammation promotes neoplastic transformation in colitis-associated cancer (CAC). Here, the authors use models of CAC to show that inflammation induces 8-oxoguanine lesions in DNA, and that antioxidants can reduce these DNA lesions as well as CAC.
