Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for screening a colorectal cancer inhibitor and, more specifically, to a method for screening a colorectal cancer inhibitor wherein a material increasing a binding level of ICAM-1 to SRC is selected as a therapeutic material. In the present disclosure, ICAM-1 is identified to regulate cancer metastasis and angiogenesis in an SRC-dependent manner, thereby exhibiting that ICAM-1 can be a potential target factor for developing a colorectal cancer therapeutic agent. Accordingly, a colorectal cancer therapeutic agent employing the target factor screened by the method of the present disclosure can increase the therapeutic effect for colorectal cancer patients.
