Outcomes in Renal Cell Carcinoma With IVC Thrombectomy: A Multiteam Analysis Between an NCI-Designated Cancer Center and a Quaternary Care Teaching Hospital.

Introduction: Interteam performance and Clavien-Dindo (C-D) complications in renal cell carcinoma with inferior vena cava thrombectomy (RCC-IVCT) have not been reported. We aimed to describe complications by the degree of complexity and surgical teams in a collaborative effort between a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center and a Quaternary Care Teaching Hospital.

Methods: Between January 2011 and May 2019, 73 consecutive RCC-IVCT were included.

BMP signaling regulates murine enteric nervous system precursor migration, neurite fasciculation, and patterning via altered Ncam1 polysialic acid addition.

The enteric nervous system (ENS) forms from migrating neural crest-derived precursors that differentiate into neurons and glia, aggregate into ganglion cell clusters, and extend neuronal processes to form a complex interacting network that controls many aspects of intestinal function. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have diverse roles in development and influence the differentiation, proliferation, and survival of ENS precursors. We hypothesized that BMP signaling might also be important for the ENS precursor migration, ganglion cell aggregation, and neurite fasciculation necessary to form the enteric nervous system.

Differential gene expression and functional analysis implicate novel mechanisms in enteric nervous system precursor migration and neuritogenesis.

Enteric nervous system (ENS) development requires complex interactions between migrating neural-crest-derived cells and the intestinal microenvironment. Although some molecules influencing ENS development are known, many aspects remain poorly understood. To identify additional molecules critical for ENS development, we used DNA microarray, quantitative real-time PCR and in situ hybridization to compare gene expression in E14 and P0 aganglionic or wild type mouse intestine.
