AIM: To investigate the relationship between cycloo- xygenase-2 (COX-2), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and to determine the clinical significance of this relationship in esophageal cancer patients undergoing chemoradiotherapy (CRT). METHODS: Immunohistochemical staining was used to evaluate COX-2 and VEGF expression in 40 patients with histologically-confirmed esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESCC) who were undergoing preoperative CRT. RESULTS: Fourteen out of 40 ESCC patients showed a pathological complete response (CR) after CRT. COX-2 and VEGF protein expressions were observed in the cytoplasm of 17 and 13 tumors, respectively, with null expression in 9 and 13 tumors, respectively. COX-2 expression was strongly correlated with VEGF expression (P 〈 0.05). There were also significant associations between COX-2 expression, tumor recurrence, and lymph-node involvement (P = 0.0277 and P = 0.0095, respectively). COX-2 expression and VEGF expression had significant prognostic value for disease-free survival (log-rank test; P = 0.0073 and P = 0.0341, respectively), but not for overall survival, as assessed by univariate analysis. expression correlates with VEGF expression and might be a useful prognostic factor for more frequent tumor recurrence in ESCC patients undergoing neoadjuvant CRT. These findings support the use of anti-angiogenic COX-2 inhibitors in the treatment of ESCC. 展开更多

AIM: To study the effect of CXC chemokine receptor-4 (CXCR4) expression on disease progression and prognosis in esophageal cancer. METHODS: CXCR4 expression was evaluated in 37 patients with histologically confirmed esophageal squamous carcinomas (ESCC) undergoing preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) by immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS: Eleven out of 37 ESCC patients showed a pathological complete response (CR) after CRT. CXCR4 protein expression was observed in cell cytoplasms of 13 tumors, and null expression was seen in 13 tumors. Distant recurrence was significantly more common in patients with positive CXCR4 expression (P = 0.0318). After a median follow-up time of 31.6 mo, 19 patients progressed (12 of 19 expressed positive CXCR4) and 11 died (10 of 11 expressed positive CXCR4). Overall survival was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (952.1 ± 53.8 d in negative group vs 475.1 ± 56.2 d in positive group, P = 0.023), distant metastasis (874.0 ± 60.4 d in negative group vs 434.9 ± 75.2 d in positive group, P = 0.014) and CRT (811.5 ± 51.2 d in responder group vs 459.6 ± 94.0 d in non-responder group, P = 0.00038) and further with an absence ofCXCR4 expression or no residual tumor (959.8 ± 51.0 d in null expression or no tumor group vs 412.0 ± 57.1 d in positive expression group, P = 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Persistent positive CXCR4 expression is implicated in tumor aggressiveness and poor prognosis in ESCC after CRT, and preoperative CRT may improve the prognosis of ESCC via CXCL12-CXCR4 signaling pathway. 展开更多

AIM:To explore useful prognostic factors for mucinous adenocarcinoma(MAC) in the colon and rectum.METHODS:MAC was divided into low-and high-grade types based on the degree of structural differentiation;low-grade MAC arisen from well to moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma and papillary carcinoma,and high-grade MAC from poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and signet ring cell carcinoma.Immunohistochemically,the expression of 2 types of MUC1(MUC1/DF and MUC1/CORE),MUC2,2 types of MUC5AC(MUC5AC/CHL2 and HGM),MUC6,CDX2,and CD10 was examined in 16 cases of MAC consisting of 6 low-and 10 high-grade types.RESULTS:MUC1/DF3 was expressed in 3 of 6 low-grade MAC(50) and 10 of 10 high-grade MAC(100).MUC1/CORE was expressed in 1 of 6 lowgrade MAC(16.7) and 7 of 10 high-grade MAC(70).MUC2 was expressed in all MAC regardless of the grade.MUC5AC was expressed in 6 of 6 low-grade MAC(100) and 4 of 10 high-grade MAC(40).HGM was expressed in 5 of 6 low-grade MAC(83.3) and 6 of 10 high-grade MAC(60).Expression of MUC6 and CD10 was undetected in all MAC regardless of the grade.CDX2 was expressed in 5 of 6 low-grade MAC(83.3) and 7 of 10 high-grade MAC(70).Taken together,MUC1/DF3 was expressed significantly more frequently in high-grade MAC than in low-grade,and MUC5AC/CHL2 was expressed significantly more frequently in low-grade MAC than in high-grade.CONCLUSION:It is proposed that MUC1/DF3 and MUC5AC/CHL2 immunostaining is useful to discriminate high-grade MAC from low-grade MAC. 展开更多
