  • Advances in the correlation between copper homeostasis disorder and digestive system tumors

    Objective To summarize the research progress of copper and its derivatives in gastrointestinal tumors in recent years, aiming to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions. Method The literatures related to copper homeostasis and copper death in recent years were read and summarized, and the research progress on the role of copper in cancer and copper applications in cancer diagnosis and treatment was reviewed. Results Copper was an essential trace element involved in a variety of basic biological processes. Elevated levels of copper in serum and tissues were associated with the development of tumors. As the mechanisms of copper action in various gastrointestinal tumors were being investigated, the use of copper and related derivatives in the treatment of cancer patients had become a new strategy. Conclusion Copper and its derivatives have a promising future in the treatment of gastrointestinal tumors, but their benefits in clinical patients still need to be demonstrated in numerous clinical trials.
