Non-digestible carbohydrates, the WNT signalling pathway and bowel cancer risk
Epidemiological and experimental evidence suggests that non-digestible carbohydrates (NDCs) e.g. resistant starch (RS) are protective against colorectal cancer (CRC), resulting primarily from the production of the short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) butyrate. The WNT signalling pathway is central to the m...
