Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the occurrence of actionable gene fusions in a large group of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients from China, analyzing data from 5,534 patients.
  • Findings revealed that only 0.98% (54 patients) had actionable gene fusions, with one specific fusion being the most common (38.9% of fusions).
  • The prevalence of these fusions was notably higher in patients with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) and in colon cancer compared to rectal cancer, suggesting that specific genetic markers can enhance fusion detection rates for better clinical decision-making.

Background: Creating a tunnel between the pancreas and splenic vessels followed by pancreatic parenchyma transection ("tunnel-first" strategy) has long been used in spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (SPDP) with splenic vessel preservation (Kimura's procedure). However, the operation space is limited in the tunnel, leading to the risks of bleeding and difficulties in suturing. We adopted the pancreatic "parenchyma transection-first" strategy to optimize Kimura's procedure.

Abstract: Fifteen novel ligustrazine-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives were designed and synthesized according to the association principle of pharmaceutical chemistry. The structures were identified by IR, NMR and ESI-MS. The inhibitory activities of platelet aggregation induced by ADP and AA have been measured by Bron method.
