Recent research has underscored the pivotal role of chronic inflammation in cancer development. Investigations have elucidated key molecular mechanisms underpinning inflammation-related cancer. Extrinsic pathway, driven by inflammatory conditions and intrinsic pathway, propelled by genetic events, emerged as critical links between inflammation and carcinogenesis. The persistent inflammation exacerbates genomic instability, providing a mechanistic link between inflammation and cancer. Targeting crucial inflammatory pathways such as NFκB, JAK-STAT, MAPK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, Wnt and TGF-β, holds promise for advancing cancer treatment modalities. Hence, understanding the key signalling pathways will highlight the intricate interplay between inflammation and cancer recognizing it as a potential target for interventions.
