Colorectal cancer CRC remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with chronic intestinal inflammation identified as a major risk factor. Notably, the tumor suppressor TP53 undergoes mutation at higher rates and earlier stages during human inflammation-driven colon tumorigenesis than in sporadic cases. We investigated whether deleting Trp53 affects inflammation-induced tumor growth and the expression of Lgr5+ cancer stem cells in mice. We examined azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colon tumorigenesis in wild-type Trp53 (+/+), heterozygous (+/−), and knockout (−/−) mice. Trp53−/− mice showed increased sensitivity to DSS colitis and earlier accelerated tumorigenesis with 100% incidence. All groups could develop invasive tumors, but knockouts displayed the most aggressive features. Unlike wild-type CRC, knockouts selectively showed increased populations of Lgr5+ colon cancer stem-like cells. Trp53 loss also boosted laminin, possibly facilitating the disruption of the tumor border. This study highlights how Trp53 deletion promotes the perfect storm of inflammation and stemness, driving colon cancer progression. Trp53 deletion dramatically shortened AOM/DSS latency and improved tumor induction efficiency, offering an excellent inflammation-driven CRC model.
