AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the role of long non-coding RNA PCED1B-AS1 in colorectal adenocarcinoma, focusing on its interaction with microRNA miR-633 and HOXA9.
  • PCED1B-AS1 was found to be upregulated in cancer tissues, while miR-633 was downregulated; knocking down PCED1B-AS1 led to reduced cell proliferation and increased apoptosis.
  • The research concluded that PCED1B-AS1 regulates HOXA9 expression by sponging miR-633, suggesting it plays a critical role in the progression of colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Article Abstract

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) PCED1B-AS1 was shown to play essential roles in human cancers, while its function in colorectal adenocarcinoma remains unclear. This study was carried out to investigate the function of PCED1B-AS1 in regulating the microRNA(miR)-633/HOXA9 axis in colorectal adenocarcinoma. The expression of PCED1B-AS1, miR-633 and HOXA9 was measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) or Western blot analysis. Cell behaviors of colorectal adenocarcinoma cell lines were assessed by CCK-8, EdU, Transwell and flow cytometry assays. The interaction among PCED1B-AS1, miR-633 and HOXA9 was determined by luciferase reporter and RIP assays. Rescue experiments were performed to determine the regulatory axis in colorectal adenocarcinoma. Moreover, an animal model was established to verify the role of PCED1B-AS1. We found that PCED1B-AS1 was upregulated and miR-633 was downregulated in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and corresponding cell lines. Knockdown of PCED1B-AS1 inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis, while miR-633 inhibitor elevated proliferation and reduced apoptosis of cancer cell lines. In addition, overexpression of HOXA9 obviously attenuated the protective role of knockdown of PCED1B-AS1 or miR-633 mimics in colorectal adenocarcinoma progression. PCED1B-AS1 could negatively regulate the expression of HOXA9 by sponging miR-633. The experiments confirmed the role of PCED1B-AS1 and miR-633 in colorectal adenocarcinoma, as well as the regulatory relationship of this axis. Our results demonstrated that knockdown of PCED1B-AS1 inhibited the progression of colorectal adenocarcinoma by regulating the miR-633/HOXA9 axis.

Aim: Complete mesocolic excision (CME) is an oncologically driven technique for treating right colon cancer. While laparoscopic CME is technically demanding and has been associated with more complications, the robotic approach might reduce morbidity. The aim of this study was to assess the safety of stepwise implementation of robotic CME.

Background: Identifying risk factors for local recurrence (LR) is pivotal in optimizing rectal cancer treatment. Total mesorectal excision (TME) and lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) are the standard treatment for advanced low rectal cancer in Japan. However, large-scale studies to evaluate risk factors for LR are limited.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of the log odds of negative lymph nodes/T stage ratio (LONT) and develop an efficient prognostic staging system using LONT in patients with colon mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC).

Methods: This study included 5,236 patients diagnosed with colon MAC obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. The Kaplan-Meier method, subgroup analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and Cox proportional hazard regression model were used to determine the clinical outcomes.

Patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who fail first- and second-line treatments face significant challenges in third-line therapy, where monotherapies often yield poor outcomes and limited survival benefits. The prognosis is particularly poor for mCRC with the unique molecular subtype of BRAF V600E mutation. This report describes sustained benefits from a third-line treatment regimen (SFS) combining tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil (S-1), fruquintinib, and sintilimab in a patient with BRAF V600E-mutated MSS mCRC.

Background: Patients with rectal cancer may develop gastrointestinal toxicity associated with chemo-radiotherapeutic treatment that conditions their clinical, functional, and nutritional evolution. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of nutritional supplementation with a glutamine-enriched peptide diet (PD) compared to exclusive dietary advice (DA) on gastrointestinal toxicity, interruption of oncologic treatment, and nutritional evolution in patients with rectal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant treatment.

Methods: Prospective cohort study with two groups.
