Probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics: a role in chemoprevention for colorectal cancer?

abstract：:The 26S proteasome is a large multi-subunit protein complex found in the cytoplasm and nucleus of mammalian cells which plays a critical role in intracellular proteolysis. It has been found that the 26S proteasome degrades multiple important substrates which are associated with tumor growth and development. Emerging e...
