We investigated the effect of chemoradiotherapy(CRT)on pancreatic cancer and the significance of preoperative chemoradiotherapy( NACRT)on resectable pancreatic cancer. The subjects were 36 patients who underwent CRT for locally advanced pancreatic cancer experienced in our department in the past 12 years(. 1)Regarding the antitumor effect of CRT, tumor diameter, tumor marker, and FDG for PET examination were reduced in 72%, 81%, and 96% of cases, respectively. In addition, the effect of Grade 1b plus 2 was observed in 10 of 16 patients who were resected after CRT(response rate 63%). In these successful cases, irradiation of 40 Gy or more and oral administration of S-1 1,500 mg or more were performed during this period. In addition, the survival rate of the NACRT plus S group(16 cases)was the same as that of the SF group (20 cases)of cStage ⅡA or lower at the same time, 50% survival was longer, and local recurrence was less. Based on the above, preoperative chemoradiotherapy combined with S-1 for resectable pancreatic cancer may be a promising preoperative treatment in the future.

Refractory small cell lung cancer with pancreatic metastasis: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, The Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University, Inner Mongolia, Hohhot, China.
Rationale: The occurrence of refractory small cell lung cancer (rSCLC) with pancreatic metastasis is a relatively rare clinical condition, which is typically accompanied by a poor prognosis and rapid disease progression.
Patient Concerns: A 65-year-old male farmer from China was diagnosed with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) 8 months ago. Following 6 cycles of EP chemotherapy, the patient's tumor response showed partial relief.
Laparoscopic peritoneal mucinous cystadenoma debulking: A case report.

Department of General Surgery, Nujiang Prefecture People's Hospital, Yunnan, Nujiang, China.
Rationale: Peritoneal mucinous cystadenoma is rare in the clinic, lacks specific clinical manifestations, tumor markers, and imaging features, and is easily misdiagnosed and missed. Clinical practitioners should maintain a high level of vigilance. Here, we report a case of laparoscopic peritoneal mucinous cystadenoma stripping to improve our understanding of the disease.

The optimal surgical indication for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) remains highly contentious. We aimed to determine the preoperative predictive factors of malignancy and independent prognostic factors in patients with IPMN who underwent curative-intent resection. In this study, 104 patients with a pathological diagnosis of IPMN who underwent curative-intent resection were included.

The unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway is crucial for tumorigenesis, mainly by regulating cancer cell stress responses and survival. However, whether UPR factors facilitate cell-cell communication between cancer cells and immune cells to drive cancer progression remains unclear. We found that adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate response element-binding protein 3-like protein 2 (CREB3L2), a noncanonical UPR factor, is overexpressed and activated in triple-negative breast cancer, where its cleavage releases a C-terminal fragment that activates the Hedgehog pathway in neighboring CD8+ T cells.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a disease with poor prognosis due to diagnostic and therapeutic limitations. We previously identified cystatin A (CSTA) as a PDAC biomarker and have conducted the present study to investigate the antitumor effects of CSTA. PDAC murine models were established with genetically modified PAN02 tumor cell lines to evaluate the antitumor immune response.
