With shifts in lifestyle, the incidence of both conditions continues to rise, underscoring the urgent need for effective treatments. While traditional therapies can be effective, their high recurrence rates and associated adverse reactions limit their broader application. Luteolin, a flavonoid derived from natural plants, has emerged as a promising focus in both IBD and CRC research due to its multi-target therapeutic potential. This article reviews the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways through which luteolin regulates immune cell differentiation, mitigates inflammation and oxidative stress, modulates gut microbiota, and restores intestinal mucosal barrier function in IBD. In the context of CRC, luteolin demonstrates significant anti-tumor effects by inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, inducing apoptosis, and suppressing cell migration and invasion. Notably, luteolin has demonstrated significant improvements in IBD symptoms by influencing the differentiation of T cell subsets, decreasing the expression of inflammatory mediators, activating antioxidant pathways, and enhancing the structure of gut microbiota. Furthermore, advancements in formulation technology, such as the use of polymer micelles and responsive nanoparticles, have greatly improved the bioavailability and efficacy of luteolin. However, further investigation is needed to address the bioavailability and potential toxicity of luteolin, particularly in the critical transition from IBD to CRC. This article emphasizes the potential of luteolin in the treatment of IBD and CRC and anticipates its promising prospects for future clinical applications as a natural therapeutic agent.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cimb47020126","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,14]],"date-time":"2025-02-14T11:14:41Z","timestamp":1739531681000},"page":"126","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Luteolin in Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Colorectal Cancer: A Disease Continuum Perspective"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"47","author":[{"given":"Fang","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical School of Medicine, Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengdu 610072, China"},{"name":"Clinical Medicine College of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, North Sichuan Medical College, Nanchong 637100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6013-5340","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cui","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical School of Medicine, Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengdu 610072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xue","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Medicine College of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, North Sichuan Medical College, Nanchong 637100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhili","family":"Gu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Medicine College of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, North Sichuan Medical College, Nanchong 637100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wenxuan","family":"Zou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Medicine College of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, North Sichuan Medical College, Nanchong 637100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xuegui","family":"Tang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Medicine College of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, North Sichuan Medical College, Nanchong 637100, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jianyuan","family":"Tang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical School of Medicine, Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chengdu 610072, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"48","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bbrc.2022.10.096","article-title":"Deficiency of microRNA-10b promotes DSS-induced inflammatory response via impairing intestinal barrier function","volume":"636 Pt. 2","author":"Zhao","year":"2022","journal-title":"Biochem.
