Abstract

Activation of interleukin-17 (IL-17) receptor signaling within intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) promotes colorectal cancer development. Here, the authors show that miR-146a limits inflammation-induced colorectal carcinogenesis by inhibiting both IL-17 induction from myeloid cells and inhibiting IL-17R signaling within IECs.
