Brief Title: Impact of Probiotics in Modulation of Intestinal Microbiota
Official Title: Impact of Probiotics in Modulation of Intestinal Microbiota of Patients Undergoing a Resection Colonic
Study ID: NCT01895530
Brief Summary: The investigators would study about impact of the administration of probiotics in the intestinal mucosa of patients undergoing resection colic, by evaluating cytokine profile by quantitative real time PCR. The investigators believe that patients who use probiotic preoperative would provide cytokine profile less inflammatory than those of the control group.
Detailed Description: Samples of colorectal cancer-free mucosa derived from patients who underwent surgical resection were investigated. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to determine expression levels of the following genes: IL10, IL1B, IL23A, TNF, IL12B, INFG, IL17A.
