The authors present a short overview on the state of the art of detection, diagnosis, operative staging and post-operative follow-up of colorectal carcinoma by barium studies, echography, CT and MR. Current concepts about these matters are briefly described and discussed according to the author's experience.

Dysregulation of genes involved in the long-chain fatty acid transport in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
World J Gastrointest Oncol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Bucharest 050474, Romania.
Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive lethal malignancy with limited options for treatment and a 5-year survival rate of 11% in the United States. As for other types of tumors, such as colorectal cancer, aberrant lipid synthesis and reprogrammed lipid metabolism have been suggested to be associated with PDAC development and progression.
Aim: To identify the possible involvement of lipid metabolism in PDAC by analyzing in tumoral and non-tumoral tissues the expression level of the most relevant genes involved in the long-chain fatty acid (FA) import into cell.

Transl Cancer Res
December 2024
School of Chinese Medicine, Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, Nanjing, China.
Background: The causal relationship between percentage of fat in milk consumption and cancer risk lacks sufficient investigation. The purpose of this study was to explore whether the percentage of fat in milk consumption is a factor that affects the risk variation of several common types of cancer.
Methods: Mendelian randomization (MR) was performed to estimate the unconfounded causal relationship between the percentage of fat in milk consumption and the risk of six cancers related to milk intake, as well as to assess the associations between body fat percentage and these cancers.
Insight into dipeptidase 1: structure, function, and mechanism in gastrointestinal cancer diseases.
Transl Cancer Res
December 2024
Department of Oncology, Jiangdu People's Hospital Affiliated to Yangzhou University, Yangzhou, China.
Dipeptidase 1 (DPEP1), initially identified as a renal membrane enzyme in mature human kidneys, plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes. It facilitates the exchange of materials and signal transduction across cell membranes, contributing significantly to dipeptide hydrolysis, glucose and lipid metabolism, immune inflammation, and ferroptosis, among other cellular functions. Extensive research has delineated the complex role of DPEP1 in oncogenesis and tumor progression, with its influence being context dependent.

Int J Nanomedicine
January 2025
Department of Breast Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University, School of Medicine, Xiamen University, Xiamen, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Mastoparan-M (Mast-M) has cytotoxic effects on various tumor cells in vitro, including liver cancer and colorectal cancer. However, the anti-tumor mechanism of Mast-M remains unclear and its potential for anti-tumor therapy has not been investigated. Herein, we aimed to develop a novel phytosome formulation loaded with Mast-M and evaluate its efficacy against breast cancer both in vitro and in vivo.
