Abstract

Colorectal Cancer (CRC) has emerged as a prevalent malignancy worldwide, exhibiting the high morbidity and mortality rates. Resolvin D1 (RvD1) can exert anti-inflammation and anti-cancer effects on various diseases. This study is aimed to explore the role of RvD1 in CRC cells. HCT15 and SW480 cells were stimulated with IL-6 in our study. A series of assays such as CCK-8, colony formation, wound healing, Transwell, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining were designed and conducted to figure out the role of RvD1 in CRC cells. RvD1 suppressed IL-6-induced SW480 and HCT15 cell proliferation. In addition, RvD1 inhibited IL-6-induced SW480 and HCT15 cell migration, invasion, and EMT process. In mechanism, RvD1 inhibited the activation of IL-6/STAT3 signaling in SW480 and HCT15 cells. Angoline strengthened the inhibitive effect of RvD1 on cell malignancy. RvD1 inhibited cell growth, migration, invasion and EMT process by inactivating IL-6/STAT3 signaling in CRC.
