Molecular mechanisms of postbiotics in colorectal cancer prevention and treatment

The occurrence of colorectal cancer (CRC) has been rising expeditiously and anticipated that 2.4 million new occasions of CRC will be detected yearly around the world until the year 2035. Due to some side-effects and complications of conventional CRC therapies, bioactive components such as microbial-derived biomolecules (postbiotics) have been attaining great significance by researchers for adjuvant therapy in CRC patients. The term ‘postbiotics’ encompasses an extensive range of complex micro- and macro-molecules (
