Researchers from China and Japan investigated the colitis-associated cancer (CAC)-preventive effect of the ethyl acetate extract of Ilex rotunda, commonly known as Kurogane holly. They reported their findings in an article published in the Journal of Natural Medicines.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that RA in the ethyl acetate extract of I. rotunda is a potential therapeutic agent against colitis-associated cancer.
