Dual effect of 1-deoxymannojirimycin on the mannose uptake and on the N-glycan processing of the human colon cancer cell line HT-29.

1990

International audience; 1-Deoxymannojirimycin (dMM), a specific alpha-mannosidase I inhibitor, completely blocks the conversion of Man9-8GlcNAc2 into Man7-5-GlcNAc2 in both differentiated and undifferentiated human adenocarcinoma HT-29 cells. Besides this well known effect on N-glycan trimming, we describe here a novel effect of this inhibitor on the D-[2-3H]mannose uptake that is exclusively observed in differentiated intestinal cells, i.e. cells that display a functional apical brush border membrane. This inhibition of D-[2-3H]mannose uptake was shown to be dose-dependent and reversible. Moreover, using microsomal fractions we showed that this effect depends only on the integrity of the b…

IMPROVEMENT IN REDOX HOMEOSTASIS AFTER CYTOREDUCTIVE SURGERY IN COLORECTAL ADENOCARCINOMA

2021

Colorectal cancer (CRC) as one the most common cancer type is associated with oxidative stress. Surgery is the only curative modality for early-stage CRC. The aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative damage biomarkers as well as enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants in patients with CRC before and after tumor resection and in healthy controls. 60 patients with stage I/II colorectal adenocarcinoma and 43 healthy controls were recruited in this study. We measured plasma levels of oxidative damage biomarkers, including advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), advanced glycation end products (AGEs), malondialdehyde (MDA), and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) at baseline and…

Blefaritis asociada al tratamiento con Cetuximab en adenocarcinoma colorrectal avanzado

2008

espanolCaso clinico: Mujer de 52 anos diagnosticada de adenocarcinoma colorrectal, remitida a nuestro servicio por presentar tras iniciar tratamiento con Cetuximab reaccion adversa palpebral. Discusion: El Cetuximab es un anticuerpo monoclonal cuya diana es el receptor del factor de crecimiento epidermico. Ha sido incorporado recientemente al tratamiento de tumores, principalmente el cancer colorrectal metastatico y los tumores del area otorrinolaringologica. Su tolerancia es en principio mejor que la de los agentes quimioterapicos clasicos. Sin embargo, no esta exento de efectos secundarios. La toxicidad palpebral asociada a Cetuximab ha sido recientemente descrita, por lo que la patogenia…

Adenocarcinoma de células basales del saco lacrimal bien diferenciado. A propósito de un caso

2007

El adenocarcinoma de celulas basales es un tumor raro y descrito por la Organizacion Mundial de la Salud (OMS) en 1991 como entidad propia. La edad media de presentacion es de 48 anos y no muestra predominio sexual. El curso es insidioso con signos y sintomas inespecificos. Presentamos un caso de adenocarcinoma de saco lacrimal, cuyo diagnostico se realizo por anatomia patologica. Mostramos los hallazgos de tomografia computarizada, resonancia magnetica y anatomia patologica. Se comenta el diagnostico diferencial y el tratamiento.

Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients (pts) with advanced gastric cancer/gastroesophageal junction cancer (GC/GEJC) or esophageal adenoc…

2021

4066 Background: CheckMate 649 (NCT02872116) is a randomized, open label phase 3 study in first line (1L) GC/GEJC/EAC. Prespecified interim results showed statistically significant improvement in overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) for N+C vs C in all randomized pts and pts whose tumors expressed programmed death-ligand 1 combined positive score (CPS) ≥ 5. We present interim HRQOL results for CPS ≥ 5 pts, included as exploratory in the study. Methods: HRQOL was assessed using EQ-5D-3L (EQ-5D) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy–Gastric Cancer (FACT-Ga). Assessments were performed at baseline (BL), every 6 weeks during treatment, and during follow-up. Change fr…

Hereditäre Pankreatitis - Eine klinisch relevante Ursache des Pankreaskarzinoms? -

2001

UNLABELLED Hereditary pancreatitis is an autosomal dominant disease. Recently, the genetic defect has been mapped to chromosome 7q35 and consists mainly of a point mutation in exon 3 of the cationic trypsinogen gene which causes an Arg(CGC)-His(CAC) substitution at residue 117. In patients with hereditary pancreatitis the estimated cumulative risk for pancreatic carcinoma to age 70 approaches 40 %. Thus, the role of hereditary pancreatitis in the pathogenesis of pancreatic carcinoma is of interest. PATIENTS AND METHODS DNA was extracted from peripheral blood (n = 16), fresh tumor tissue (n = 29) and formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tumor tissue (n = 5) of 50 patients with ductal adenoca…

Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) of the pancreas: a distinct entity among pancreatic tumors

2022

Aims Intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) of the pancreas is a recently recognized pancreatic tumor entity. Here we aimed to determine the most important features with a systematic review coupled with an integrated statistical approach. Methods and results PubMed, SCOPUS, and Embase were searched for studies reporting data on pancreatic ITPN. The clinicopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular data were summarized. Then a comprehensive survival analysis and a comparative analysis of the molecular alterations of ITPN with those of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) from reference cohorts (including the International Cance…

Comparative analysis of Hsp10 and Hsp90 expression in healthy mucosa and adenocarcinoma of the large bowel.

2014

Heat shock proteins (Hsps) assist other proteins in their folding and drive the degradation of defective proteins. During evolution, these proteins have also acquired other roles. Hsp10 is involved in immunomodulation and tumor progression. Hsp90 stabilizes a range of "client" proteins involved in cell signaling. The present study evaluated the expression levels of Hsp10 and Hsp90 in normal mucosa and adenocarcinoma samples of human large bowel.Samples of normal mucosa and adenocarcinoma were collected and Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction RT-PCR, western blotting (WB) analyses, as well as immunohistochemistry were performed to evaluate the expression levels of Hsp10 and Hsp90…

Comparative analysis of Hsp10 and Hsp90 in large bowel healthy mucosa and adenocarcinomas

2015

Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are an important class of molecules with various functions. Their classic role is to assist other proteins in folding and re-folding and, when proteins are defective or irreversibly misfolded, to drive their degradation. For this reason, some Hsps are also named molecular chaperones. During evolution, this class of proteins has also acquired extrachaperoning roles such as participation in immune system regulation, cell differentiation, programmed cell death and carcinogenesis. Hsp10 is a partner of Hsp60 in the Hsp60/10 folding machine, but numerous scientific studies have shown that Hsp10 may also play other roles. In fact, Hsp10 seems to have an immunomodulatory…
