Interleukin-8 (IL-8), also known as CXCL8, is a chemokine primarily involved in the recruitment and activation of neutrophils. Its role in cancer is significant, as it can influence tumor growth, metastasis, and the tumor microenvironment.
IL-8 is a chemokine frequently produced in the tumor microenvironment by human malignant cells. IL-8 plays key roles in the immunobiology of human malignancies and resistance to treatments. Circulating IL-8 concentration reflects tumor burden.

In many cancers have elevated levels of IL-8 and are associated with increased tumor aggressiveness, metastasis, and poorer overall survival. Elevated IL-8 often correlates with a more inflammatory tumor microenvironment, which can facilitate tumor progression.

Colon cancer can start anywhere in the colon, (5 feet long) and absorbs water from stool. Rectal cancer starts in the rectum, which is the last 12 centimeters.
