Correlation Between NKG2DL Expression and Antitumor Effect of Protein-bound Polysaccharide-K in Tumor-bearing Mouse Models.

Background/aim: We investigated the relationship between the expression of natural killer group 2, member D ligands (NKG2DLs) and the antitumor effects of protein-bound polysaccharide-K (PSK).

Materials And Methods: PSK was administered to evaluate its effectiveness against tumor growth. The expression of Rae-1 and H60 were analyzed in multiple cell lines.

A 68-year-old man underwent esophagectomy for middle thoracic esophageal cancer 13 years ago. In April 2015, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed advanced residual cervical esophageal cancer.

[A case of metachronous liver metastasis from gastric cancer successfully treated with hepatectomy].

The use of hepatectomy for the treatment of liver metastasis from gastric cancer has been controversial. We report a case of metachronous liver metastasis from gastric cancer, which we successfully treated with hepatectomy. A 59-year-old man underwent laparoscopy-assisted total gastrectomy with D1 plus lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer.
