AI Article Synopsis

  • The study examined the expression of micro ribonucleic acids (miR-24 and miR-101) in advanced gastric cancer tissues compared to normal tissues from patients.
  • The research involved 247 gastric cancer samples and found that miR-24 levels were significantly higher in cancer tissues, while miR-101 levels were lower, with both showing correlations to tumor characteristics like differentiation and metastasis.
  • Additionally, miR-24 and miR-101 were identified as independent prognostic factors for overall survival, suggesting their potential role in cancer progression and as indicators for patient prognosis.

Article Abstract

Clinical significance of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-24 and miR-101 were investigated by evaluating the expression of miR-24 and miR-101 in the tissues of patients with advanced gastric cancer. A total of 247 gastric cancer tissue specimens and 150 cancer-adjacent normal tissues (>5 cm away from the tumor) from patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent surgical resection in the Surgical Oncology Department of Tianjin Union Medical Centre (Tianjin, China) from April 2013 to May 2016 were collected. The expression of miR-24 and miR-101 in gastric cancer and cancer-adjacent normal tissues were detected via reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and the correlation of the levels of miR-24 and miR-101 in gastric cancer tissues with their clinical and pathological features were explored. The expression level of miR-24 in gastric cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in cancer-adjacent normal tissues (t=10.26, p<0.01), while the expression level of miR-101 was significantly lower (t=13.940, p<0.01). The expression of miR-24 and miR-101 in gastric cancer was correlated with the pathological differentiation degree of the tumor, lymph node metastasis and depth of infiltration (p<0.05). The multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that miR-24 and miR-101 were independent prognostic factors affecting the overall survival of patients (p<0.01). The results indicated that the expression of miR-24 is upregulated and that of miR-101 is downregulated in gastric cancer tissues. miR-24 and miR-101 may promote the occurrence, development, infiltration and metastasis of gastric cancer, and can be indicators for the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.

The E3 ubiquitin ligase neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated 4 (NEDD4) is involved in various cancer signaling pathways, including PTEN/AKT. However, its role in promoting gastric cancer (GC) progression is unclear. This study was conducted to elucidate the role of NEDD4 in GC progression.

Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) encompass a diverse set of malignancies with limited precision therapy options. Recently, therapies targeting DLL3 have shown clinical efficacy in aggressive NENs, including small cell lung cancers and neuroendocrine prostate cancers. Given the continued development and expansion of DLL3-targeted therapies, we sought to characterize the expression of DLL3 and identify its clinical and molecular correlates across diverse neuroendocrine and non-neuroendocrine cancers.

Objective: This study aimed to clarify whether nutritional status at admission affects enteral nutrition weaning 6 months after surgery in patients with esophageal cancer.

Methods: This was a retrospective study of 81 patients who underwent subtotal esophageal cancer resection between April 2014 and February 2016. The survey items were as follows: 1) sex, 2) age, 3) presence or absence of family members living together, 4) clinical stage, 5) surgical procedure, 6) reconstructed organs, 7) nutritional status at admission, 8) presence or absence of postoperative complications (anastomotic leakage, chylothorax, and recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis), and 9) presence or absence of treatment other than surgery (chemo- or radiotherapy).
