Abstract

32

Worldwide, colorectal cancer (CRC) is a deleterious disease causing millions of death

33

annually. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a first-line chemotherapy for CRC, but chemoresistance

34

and gastrointestinal mucositis limit its efficacy. Polyphenol-rich foods are increasingly

35

popular due to their potential beneficial role in cancer. Ellagitannins is a group of phenolic

36

compounds commonly found in pomegranate, strawberries, raspberries, etc. The objective of

37

this study was to explore whether ellagitannins from pomegranate (PETs) could ameliorate

38

5-FU-induced intestinal mucositis and enhance its efficacy against CRC. The results showed

39

that PETs (100 mg/kg) counteracted 5-FU-induced intestinal mucositis in rats. The number of

40

apoptotic cells per crypt was reduced from 1.50±0.21 to 0.85±0.18 (P
