Recent years have seen a reinassance of the inflammation-cancer connection stemming from different lines of work and leading to a generally accepted paradigm. Epidemiological studies have revealed that chronic inflammation predisposes to different forms of cancer and that usage of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents is associated with protection against various tumors. Hallmarks of the tumor micro-environment include the enhanced recruitment of blood leukocytes and the presence of inflammatory mediators (cytokines, chemokines and proteolytic enzymes) which contribute to tissue remodeling and angiogenesis. Therapeutic targeting of cancer-associated inflammation, though in its infancy, may open new avenues to complement more conventional anti-tumor treatments.
