For instance, statins significantly reduced the risk of development of multiple types of cancer by exerting anti-inflammatory and other effects.21–23 Similarly, neutralization of IL-17A, IL-11, or IL-22 could inhibit colonic tumorigenesis at an early stage,460–462 while COXs inhibitors (e.g., celecoxib and aspirin) impaired tumor growth and metastasis.463. The gene discussed is IL17A; the disease is cancer.
