Microsatellite instability in rat colon tumors induced by heterocyclic amines was examined by studies on the lengths of 85 microsatellite sequences, covering most of the rat chromosomes in tumors and normal tissues. Seven of eight colon tumors induced by 2-amino-1-methyl-6- phenylimidazo-[4,5-b]pyridine showed alterations at least at one locus of microsatellite sequences, whereas no mutations were observed in colon tumors induced by 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline. Three 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo-[4,5-b]pyridine-induced colon tumors had mutations in more than one microsatellite, their mutation rates being 2 of 85, 2 of 85, and 3 of 85 allele/mircrosatellite sequence, respectively. These data suggest that rat colon adenocarcinomas induced by 2-amino-1-methyl-6- phenylimidazo-[4,5-b]pyridine but not 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f] quinoline show a trait of microsatellite instability. This is the first systematic study of microsatellite instability in experimental animal models of carcinogenesis.

Aberrant sialylated glycosylation in the tumor microenvironment is a novel immune suppression pathway, which has garnered significant attention as a targetable glycoimmune checkpoint for cancer immunotherapy to address the dilemma of existing therapies. However, rational drug design and in-depth mechanistic studies are urgently required for tumor sialic acid to become valuable glycoimmune targets. In this study, we explored the positive correlation of PD-L1 and sialyltransferase expression in clinical colorectal cancer tissues and identified their mutual regulation effects in macrophages.

FBXW7 is a tumor suppressor gene that regulates metabolism and is associated with the onset and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC)), however, the precise mechanism whereby FBXW7 participates in the metabolic reprogramming of CRC remains unclear. Here, the research aims to reveal the association between the expression of FBXW7 and clinical variables and to investigate the molecular mechanism by which FBXW7 plays a critical role in the development of CRC. The clinical importance of FBXW7 in CRC was determined by immunohistochemistry.

Acrometastasis is an extremely rare diagnosis, invariably associated with poor prognosis. A 60-year-old female with complaints of cough and breathing difficulty also presented with pain and swelling in her left leg. Radiological investigations suggested a double primary in the lung and leg; histopathology and immunohistochemistry (IHC) confirmed the lesion in the leg to be metastatic from the lung primary.
