Background/aim: Recently, we demonstrated that cancer dormancy is initiated within the lymphovascular tumor embolus and consists of decreased proliferation and lower mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity. In the present study, we investigated other intersecting metabolism-signaling pathways that may ultimately determine whether the lymphovascular tumor embolus remains dormant or undergoes cell death.

Materials and methods: The present study exploited a singular patient-derived xenograft (PDX) of inflammatory breast cancer (Mary-X) that spontaneously forms high density spheroids, the in vitro equivalent of emboli. The AMPK metabolic checkpoint pathway, the mTOR nutrient-responsive cell growth pathway, the P13K/Akt intracellular quiescence regulating pathway, and the calpain-mediated E-cadherin proteolytic pathway responsible for spontaneous spheroid-genesis were also investigated, to determine their relative contributions to dormancy.

Results: The levels of phosphorylated AMPK proteins (AMPKα and β subunits) decreased gradually with the formation of MARY-X spheroids in vitro. Rapamycin down-regulated mTOR activity, yet dormancy persisted. LY294002, a PI3K/Akt inhibitor, completely abolished mTOR and induced spheroid disadherence and apoptosis. Compound C (AMPK inhibitor) up-regulated mTOR and induced spheroid disadherence and apoptosis. Increasing cellular metabolism led to cell death, even in enriched medium, whereas growing the spheroids in serum-free media (starvation) did not result in further mTOR inhibition, and dormancy was maintained.

Conclusion: An increase in our understanding of dormancy from the standpoint of internal signaling pathways might ultimately provide clues to the external stimuli (starvation, hypoxia or other not yet understood phenomena) that act through these pathways to maintain or disrupt dormancy.

背景/目的:最近,我们证实癌症休眠始于淋巴管瘤栓,包括增殖减少和雷帕霉素哺乳动物靶标(mTOR)活性降低。在本研究中,我们调查了可能最终决定淋巴管瘤栓是保持休眠还是发生细胞死亡的其他交叉代谢信号通路:本研究利用了一种自发形成高密度球体(相当于体外栓子)的炎性乳腺癌(Mary-X)患者衍生异种移植物(PDX)。研究人员还调查了AMPK代谢检查点通路、mTOR营养响应型细胞生长通路、P13K/Akt细胞内静止调节通路以及钙蛋白酶介导的E-cadherin蛋白溶解通路,这些通路负责自发形成球形体,以确定它们对休眠的相对贡献:结果:磷酸化AMPK蛋白(AMPKα和β亚基)的水平随着体外MARY-X球体的形成而逐渐下降。雷帕霉素降低了 mTOR 的活性,但休眠仍然存在。PI3K/Akt抑制剂LY294002能完全抑制mTOR,并诱导球体失粘和凋亡。化合物 C(AMPK 抑制剂)上调了 mTOR,并诱导球体失粘和细胞凋亡。即使在富集培养基中,细胞新陈代谢的增加也会导致细胞死亡,而在无血清培养基(饥饿)中生长球体不会导致进一步的 mTOR 抑制,休眠得以维持:结论:我们从内部信号通路的角度加深对休眠的理解,最终可能会为通过这些通路维持或破坏休眠的外部刺激(饥饿、缺氧或其他尚不清楚的现象)提供线索。

Background/aim: Methotrexate (MTX) resistance in osteosarcoma results in a very poor patient prognosis. We previously reported that super MTX-resistant osteosarcoma (143B-MTXSR) cells, selected from parental 143B osteosarcoma (143B-P) cells by culturing them with increasing concentrations of MTX, exhibited reduced malignancy, despite the over-expression of oncogenes. The present study explored the mechanism of reduced malignancy in the super MTX-resistant osteosarcoma cells.

Materials and methods: Previously selected 143B-MTXSR cells which are 5,500 times more MTX resistant than parental cells, were used for this study. The status of methylated histone H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 marks was examined with western immunoblotting and compared between 143B-MTXSR and parental 143B-P cells.

Results: Histone H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 marks were over-expressed in 143B-MTXSR compared to 143B-P (p<0.05, p<0.01, respectively).

Conclusion: Over-expression of histone H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 marks may be related to super-MTX resistance and to the loss of malignancy of super MTX-resistant osteosarcoma cells due to the fundamental relationship of methylation and cancer.

背景/目的:骨肉瘤中的甲氨蝶呤(MTX)耐药性会导致患者预后极差。我们以前曾报道过,超级 MTX 抗性骨肉瘤(143B-MTXSR)细胞是从亲代 143B 骨肉瘤(143B-P)细胞中筛选出来的,通过用浓度不断增加的 MTX 培养,尽管癌基因过度表达,但恶性程度却有所降低。本研究探讨了超级 MTX 抗性骨肉瘤细胞恶性程度降低的机制:本研究使用了之前筛选出的 143B-MTXSR 细胞,其 MTX 耐药性是亲代细胞的 5,500 倍。用 Western 免疫印迹法检测甲基化组蛋白 H3K9me3 和 H3K27me3 标记的状态,并比较 143B-MTXSR 和亲本 143B-P 细胞:结果:与143B-P相比,组蛋白H3K9me3和H3K27me3标记在143B-MTXSR中过度表达(p结论:组蛋白H3K9me3和H3K27me3标记在143B-MTXSR中过度表达:组蛋白H3K9me3和H3K27me3标记的过度表达可能与超MTX耐药有关,并且由于甲基化与癌症的基本关系,超MTX耐药骨肉瘤细胞的恶性度下降也与超MTX耐药有关。

Background/aim: Elevated blood fibronectin (FN) levels have been observed in various cancers; however, their significance remains controversial. Herein, we measured the levels of sialyl-fibronectin (S-FN), a type of FN secreted by tumor cells, and investigated whether blood S-FN secretion is associated with recurrent metastasis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Patients and methods: An ELISA system recognizing S-FN was constructed, and the amount of S-FN in blood samples from 63 patients with thyroid carcinoma was measured. The relationship between S-FN secretion and clinical prognosis was also examined. Vimentin immunostaining was performed to identify the mesenchymal status of the cells during EMT.

Results: After 12 years of observation, 17/63 patients had recurrent metastases, including nine cases of lymph node recurrence (LNR) and eight cases of remote metastasis (RM). LNR occurred in 7/39 (17.9%) of S-FN-negative cases, where 4/7 (57.1%) had two or more repeat recurrences. In S-FN-positive cases, LNR was observed in 2/24 cases (8.3%), and no repeat recurrence was observed. For RM, 6/39 (15.4%) patients were S-FN-negative, of which 5/6 (83.3%) had progressive disease even during treatment at metastasis. Of the S-FN-positive cases, RM was observed in 2/24 (8.3%) patients; progressive disease was observed in 1/2 (50.0%) patients. In 9/11 S-FN-negative recurrent metastasis cases (81.8%) and 2/4 S-FN-positive cases (50.0%), many vimentin-positive, FN-secreting cells were found in the interstitial tissue around the tumor.

Conclusion: S-FN-negative thyroid cancer has a poor prognosis because of the progression of EMT associated with increased paracrine FN levels in the stroma.

背景/目的:在多种癌症中均观察到血液中纤维连接蛋白(FN)水平升高,但其意义仍存在争议。在此,我们测定了由肿瘤细胞分泌的一种纤连蛋白(S-FN)的水平,并研究了血液中 S-FN 的分泌是否与复发性转移和上皮-间质转化(EMT)有关:构建了识别S-FN的ELISA系统,并测定了63例甲状腺癌患者血液样本中S-FN的含量。同时还研究了S-FN分泌与临床预后之间的关系。此外,还进行了Vimentin免疫染色,以确定细胞在EMT过程中的间质状态:经过12年的观察,17/63例患者出现复发转移,其中9例淋巴结复发(LNR),8例远处转移(RM)。在S-FN阴性病例中,7/39(17.9%)患者出现淋巴结复发,其中4/7(57.1%)患者出现两次或两次以上的复发。在 S-FN 阳性病例中,有 2/24 例(8.3%)观察到 LNR,没有观察到重复复发。就 RM 而言,6/39(15.4%)例患者为 S-FN 阴性,其中 5/6(83.3%)例患者即使在转移灶治疗期间疾病仍在进展。在 S-FN 阳性病例中,2/24(8.3%)例患者观察到 RM;1/2(50.0%)例患者观察到疾病进展。在9/11例S-FN阴性复发转移病例(81.8%)和2/4例S-FN阳性病例(50.0%)中,肿瘤周围的间质组织中发现了许多波形蛋白阳性、分泌FN的细胞:结论:S-FN阴性甲状腺癌的预后较差,因为EMT的进展与基质中旁分泌型FN水平的升高有关。

Background/aim: Many glioma patients struggle to return to work after surgery because of higher brain dysfunction. Although the right frontal lobe has historically been considered functionally silent, reports of performing awake surgery to evaluate higher brain functions in patients with tumors in this area have increased. We present two cases of patients who underwent awake surgery for malignant glioma in the right frontal lobe to preserve emotional recognition and facilitate an early return to work.

Case report: Case 1 was a 48-year-old right-handed woman employed as a nursery school teacher and case 2 was a 21-year-old right-handed man employed in sales. Both had contrast-enhancing right frontal lobe tumors exhibiting high signal intensity on fluid attenuated inversion recovery imaging and underwent awake surgery. During the operation, cortical mapping was performed using the Reading the Mind in the Eyes, calculation, and motor tasks. Resection of sites involved in motor and emotional recognition functions was avoided. In case 1, all regions of high signal intensity were completely resected; in case 2, all regions exhibiting enhancement were resected. Both patients were discharged home without neurological deficits and returned to work within 21 days after surgery.

Conclusion: It may be important to focus not only on overall survival and progression-free survival in glioma patients, but also on factors associated with life satisfaction, such as time to return to work after surgery and time until work becomes difficult. Awake surgery aimed at preserving higher brain functions is useful and may also improve life satisfaction.

背景/目的:许多胶质瘤患者在术后因大脑高级功能障碍而难以重返工作岗位。虽然右侧额叶历来被认为功能沉默,但对该区域肿瘤患者进行清醒手术以评估高级脑功能的报道越来越多。我们介绍了两例因右侧额叶恶性胶质瘤而接受清醒手术的患者,以保留患者的情感识别能力,帮助其早日重返工作岗位:病例 1 是一名 48 岁的右撇子女性,受雇于幼儿园教师;病例 2 是一名 21 岁的右撇子男性,受雇于销售部门。两人都患有造影剂增强的右额叶肿瘤,在液体衰减反转恢复成像中显示出高信号强度,并接受了清醒手术。手术过程中,使用 "读心术"、计算和运动任务进行了皮层测绘。手术中避免切除涉及运动和情感识别功能的部位。在病例 1 中,所有高信号强度区域都被完全切除;在病例 2 中,所有显示增强的区域都被切除。两名患者均在术后 21 天内出院回家,无神经功能障碍,并重返工作岗位:结论:不仅要关注胶质瘤患者的总生存率和无进展生存率,还要关注与生活满意度相关的因素,如术后重返工作岗位的时间和工作变得困难的时间。旨在保留高级脑功能的清醒手术是有用的,也可能提高生活满意度。

Background/aim: To investigate the significance of the timing of chemoradiotherapy together with clinical and laboratory features in newly diagnosed glioblastoma.

Patients and methods: Clinical and laboratory parameters of 209 patients with glioblastoma potentially influencing overall (OS) and progression-free (PFS) survival were analyzed in univariable and multivariable models.

Results: On univariable analyses, Karnofsky performance status (p<0.001), recursive partitioning analysis (RPA) class (p<0.001), O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT)-status (p<0.001), extent of resection (p<0.001), radiotherapy dose (p=0.01), and the number of adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) cycles (p<0.001) were significantly associated with OS. Additionally, MGMT-status (p<0.001), extent of resection (p=0.03), surgical site infections (p=0.02), and the number of adjuvant TMZ cycles (p<0.001) were significantly associated with PFS. Multivariable analysis identified radiotherapy dose as the only independent predictor (p=0.049) of OS. MGMT-status (p=0.02) and the number of adjuvant TMZ cycles (p<0.001) were independent predictors of PFS.

Conclusion: The timing of chemoradiotherapy did not play a prognostic role. For OS, the radiotherapy dose, and for PFS, MGMT-status and the number of adjuvant TMZ cycles were identified as independent prognostic factors.

Background/aim: In gastric cancer (GCa) tissues, mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) is notably reduced compared to healthy tissues. Furthermore, abnormally low or elevated serum levels of MMP-8 have been linked to a significantly poor prognosis. The involvement of MMP-8 genotypes in susceptibility to GCa remains underexplored. We aimed to assess the influence of MMP-8 genotypes on GCa susceptibility and their potential interactions with smoking, alcohol consumption, and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection.

Patients and methods: The study utilized polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) to analyze MMP-8 rs11225395, rs34009635, and rs35866072 genotypes in 161 GCa patients and 483 controls.

Results: No statistically significant difference was detected in the distribution of genotypic (p for trend=0.3635) or allelic (p=0.1954) frequencies of MMP-8 rs11225395. Under a dominant model, combined CT+TT genotypes showed no association with GCa risk [odds ratio (OR)=0.77, 95% confidence interval (95%CI)=0.54-1.10, p=0.1852]. Similarly, no association was observed for MMP-8 rs34009635 or rs35866072. Importantly, individuals with the MMP-8 rs11225395 CC genotype demonstrated a significant increase in GCa risk when exposed to smoking (OR=4.04, 95%CI=2.28-7.16, p=0.0001), alcohol consumption (OR=2.83, 95%CI=1.64-4.89, p=0.0002), and H. pylori infection (OR=3.53, 95%CI=2.12-5.90, p=0.0001).

Conclusion: The findings indicate that individuals carrying the MMP-8 rs11225395 CC genotype have increased susceptibility to GCa, especially when combined with risk factors, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and H. pylori infection. These results suggest that MMP-8 genotype-based preventive strategies, including lifestyle alterations and targeted infection treatments, may be valuable in mitigating GCa development.

背景/目的:与健康组织相比,胃癌(GCa)组织中基质金属蛋白酶-8(MMP-8)的 mRNA 表达明显减少。此外,血清中 MMP-8 水平的异常降低或升高与不良预后有关。MMP-8 基因型对 GCa 易感性的影响仍未得到充分探讨。我们的目的是评估 MMP-8 基因型对 GCa 易感性的影响及其与吸烟、饮酒和幽门螺旋杆菌(H. pylori)感染的潜在相互作用:研究利用基于聚合酶链式反应的限制性片段长度多态性(PCR-RFLP)分析了161名GCa患者和483名对照者的MMP-8 rs11225395、rs34009635和rs35866072基因型:MMP-8 rs11225395的基因型频率(趋势p=0.3635)和等位基因频率(p=0.1954)的分布无统计学差异。在显性模型下,CT+TT 组合基因型与 GCa 风险没有关联[几率比(OR)=0.77,95% 置信区间(95%CI)=0.54-1.10,p=0.1852]。同样,也没有观察到 MMP-8 rs34009635 或 rs35866072 的相关性。重要的是,当暴露于吸烟(OR=4.04,95%CI=2.28-7.16,p=0.0001)、饮酒(OR=2.83,95%CI=1.64-4.89,p=0.0002)和幽门螺杆菌感染(OR=3.53,95%CI=2.12-5.90,p=0.0001)时,MMP-8 rs11225395 CC 基因型个体的 GCa 风险显著增加:研究结果表明,携带 MMP-8 rs11225395 CC 基因型的个体对 GCa 的易感性增加,尤其是与吸烟、饮酒和幽门螺杆菌感染等危险因素结合时。这些结果表明,基于 MMP-8 基因型的预防策略,包括改变生活方式和有针对性的感染治疗,可能对减轻 GCa 的发展很有价值。

Background/aim: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) or lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) accounts for the majority of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and overexpression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in these cells is known to induce tumor immune evasion or drug resistance. However, detailed studies are needed to determine whether microRNAs (miRNAs) that reduce PD-L1 expression can suppress drug resistance in NSCLC.

Materials and methods: Kaplan Meier plotter and Receiver Operating Characteristic plotter were used to determine the effect of specific miRNAs on survival and chemotherapy response in NSCLC patients. Cell viability, colony formation and invasion assays, and qPCR analyses were also performed.

Results: The expression of miRNA-140-3p (miR-140-3p) was lower in LUAD patients, compared to the normal group, and low expression of miR-140-3p was associated with poor survival of LUAD patients, but not in LUSC. The miR-140-3p mimic inhibited proliferation, colony formation, and invasion of LUAD cells. Interestingly, the expression of miR-140-3p was significantly lower in the group of LUAD patients who did not respond to docetaxel. In LUAD cells, combined treatment with miR-140-3p and docetaxel significantly reduced cell viability as well as the expression of ABCG2 and MVP, genes associated with drug resistance, compared to either treatment alone. Additionally, combined injection of miR-140-3p mimic and docetaxel significantly inhibited tumor growth compared to treatment with docetaxel alone.

Conclusion: These results suggest that the high expression of miR-140-3p in LUAD is correlated with good patient prognosis and may contribute to the treatment of LUAD, especially by increasing responsiveness to docetaxel.

背景/目的:肺腺癌(LUAD)或肺鳞癌(LUSC)占非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)的大多数,已知这些细胞中程序性死亡配体1(PD-L1)的过度表达可诱导肿瘤免疫逃避或耐药性。然而,要确定减少PD-L1表达的微RNA(miRNA)是否能抑制NSCLC的耐药性,还需要进行详细的研究:采用 Kaplan Meier plotter 和 Receiver Operating Characteristic plotter 来确定特定 miRNA 对 NSCLC 患者生存和化疗反应的影响。此外,还进行了细胞活力、集落形成和侵袭测定以及 qPCR 分析:结果:与正常组相比,miRNA-140-3p(miR-140-3p)在LUAD患者中的表达量较低。miR-140-3p模拟物抑制了LUAD细胞的增殖、集落形成和侵袭。有趣的是,在对多西他赛无反应的LUAD患者组中,miR-140-3p的表达明显较低。在 LUAD 细胞中,miR-140-3p 和多西他赛联合治疗与单独使用其中一种治疗方法相比,能显著降低细胞活力以及与耐药性相关的基因 ABCG2 和 MVP 的表达。此外,与单独使用多西他赛相比,联合注射 miR-140-3p mimic 和多西他赛可明显抑制肿瘤生长:这些结果表明,miR-140-3p 在 LUAD 中的高表达与患者的良好预后相关,可能有助于 LUAD 的治疗,尤其是通过增加对多西他赛的反应性。

Background/aim: Tubular adenomas of the colon (TA) are neoplastic polyps composed of dysplastic tube-like crypts. Nondysplastic crypts, mostly in asymmetric branching have been previously reported, both beneath and bordering TA. In the present article, intercalated nondysplastic crypts (INDC) amidst dysplastic crypts in TA are showcased.

Patients and methods: The occurrence of INDC was recorded in 139 TA.

Results: Out of the 139 TA, 31% exhibited INDC; of these, 58% were in asymmetric branching (INDCAB), 35% were single intercalated crypts without branching (INDSNB), and 7% were in symmetric branching (INDCSB). Luminal dysplasia occurred in 53% out of the 43 TA: in 37% TA with INDCAB, in 16% TA with INDSNB, but in none of the TA with INDCSB. Thus, INDCAB predominated.

Conclusion: The finding of INDC in TA domain contrasts with the infrequency of INDCSB and with the absence of INDCAB in the normal colorectal mucosa. Hence, INDC emerge as integral components in TA. Since only 1 or 2 sections were available per TA, the total number of INDC in the entire TA is likely higher. INDC in TA may be remnants of acquired nondysplastic mucosal cores of abnormal cryptogenesis that were subsequently replaced by top-down growing dysplastic epithelium. The present and previous findings support the concept of field cancerization in the human colorectum.

背景/目的:结肠管状腺瘤(TA)是由发育不良的管状隐窝组成的肿瘤性息肉。非增生性隐窝以前也有报道,大多呈不对称分支,既位于结肠管状腺瘤下方,也与结肠管状腺瘤相邻。本文展示了TA中发育不良的隐窝中夹杂的非增生性隐窝(INDC):患者和方法:记录了139例TA中INDC的发生情况:结果:在139例TA中,31%出现INDC;其中58%为非对称分支(INDCAB),35%为无分支的单个闰隐窝(INDSNB),7%为对称分支(INDCSB)。在43个TA中,53%出现管腔发育不良:37%的TA为INDCAB,16%的TA为INDSNB,但没有一个TA为INDCSB。因此,INDCAB占主导地位:结论:在 TA 中发现 INDC 与 INDCSB 不常见以及正常结直肠粘膜中不存在 INDCAB 形成鲜明对比。因此,INDC 是 TA 不可或缺的组成部分。由于每个 TA 只有 1 或 2 个切片,因此整个 TA 中 INDC 的总数可能更高。TA 中的 INDC 可能是后天非增生异常隐窝粘膜核心的残留物,随后被自上而下生长的增生异常上皮所取代。目前和以前的研究结果都支持人类结直肠中的野癌化概念。

Background/aim: Granzyme B (GZMB) is mainly produced by natural killer (NK) cells and activated CD8-positive T cells to induce tumor cell apoptosis. We analyzed the significance of GZMB expression in gastric cancer (GC) tissues from patients with pathological (p)Stage II/III GC after curative resection.

Patients and methods: Patients with pStage II/III GC who received curative resection (n=253) were included and the expression levels of GZMB in GC tissues and in the adjacent normal mucosa were measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The expression levels in GC tissues and clinicopathological features and overall survival (OS) were compared in these patients.

Results: GZMB expression levels were significantly higher in GC tissues than in the adjacent normal mucosa. GZMB expression levels in GC tissues were not associated with any clinicopathological features. The 5-year OS rate in the high-GZMB expression group was significantly better than that in the low-expression group (5-year survival rate 72.0% vs. 55.7%; p=0.009). Furthermore, on multivariate analysis, high-GZMB expression was an independent factor for better OS (hazard ratio=0.652; 95% confidence interval=0.432-0.987; p=0.043).

Conclusion: In patients with locally advanced GC after curative resection, GZMB expression in GC tissue may be a useful prognostic marker.

背景/目的:颗粒酶B(GZMB)主要由自然杀伤细胞(NK)和活化的CD8阳性T细胞产生,诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡。我们分析了治愈性切除术后病理(p)II/III期胃癌(GC)患者组织中GZMB表达的意义:纳入接受根治性切除术的p期II/III GC患者(n=253),采用定量实时聚合酶链反应法测定GZMB在GC组织和邻近正常黏膜中的表达水平。结果发现,GZMB在GC组织中的表达水平明显高于在邻近正常粘膜中的表达水平:结果:GC组织中GZMB的表达水平明显高于邻近的正常黏膜。GC组织中GZMB的表达水平与任何临床病理特征无关。GZMB高表达组的5年生存率明显优于低表达组(5年生存率为72.0% vs. 55.7%; p=0.009)。此外,在多变量分析中,GZMB高表达是改善OS的独立因素(危险比=0.652;95%置信区间=0.432-0.987;P=0.043):结论:对于根治性切除术后的局部晚期GC患者,GC组织中GZMB的表达可能是一个有用的预后标志物。
