Delineation of fatty acid metabolism in gastric cancer:Therapeutic implications

BACKGROUND The prognosis of gastric cancer is extremely poor.Metabolic reprogramming involving lipids has been associated with cancer occurrence and progression.AIM To illustrate fatty acid metabolic mechanisms in gastric cancer,detect core genes,develop a prognostic model,and provide treatment options.METHODS Raw data from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus databases were collected and analyzed.Differentially expressed fatty acid metabolism genes were identified and incorporated into a risk model based on least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis.Then,patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas were assigned to high-and low-risk cohorts according to the mean value of the risk score as the threshold,which was verified in the Gene Expression Omnibus database.Relationships between chemotherapeutic sensitivity and tumor microenvironment features were assessed.RESULTS An integrated evaluation was performed in this study.Fatty acid metabolismrelated genes were used to construct the risk model.Patients classified into the high-risk cohort were considered to be resistant to chemotherapy based on results of the“pRRophetic”R package.Patients in the high-risk cohort were associated with type Ⅰ/Ⅱ interferon activation,increased inflammation level,immune cell infiltration,and tumor immune dysfunction based on the exclusion algorithm,indicating the potential benefit of immunotherapy in these patients.CONCLUSION We constructed a fatty acid-related risk score model to assess the comprehensive fatty acid features in gastric cancer and validated its vital role in prognosis,chemotherapy sensitivity,and immunotherapy.

Metastatic stomach lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy:A case report

BACKGROUND Pulmonary lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma(PLELC)is a rare type of nonsmall-cell lung cancer.Stomach lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma(LELC)metastasis secondary to PLELC has not been reported recently.CASE SUMMARY A 64-year-old female was admitted to our hospital for a regular gastroscopy examination with a 6-year history of surgical resection for left PLELC.Positron emission tomography/computed tomography suggested high accumulation of 18F-fludeoxyglucose in the gastric cardia region.Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy confirmed a large mass at the stomach fundus.Immunohistochemistry(IHC)of the biopsy suggested metastatic stomach LELC.Proximal gastrectomy showed that this 6.5 cm×5.0 cm mass was located in the stomach fundus near the cardia.Histopathological examination showed a poorly differentiated carcinoma with prominent lymphoplasmacytic infiltration.IHC demonstrated that the tumor was positive for CK(AE1/AE3),p63,p40,p53,Ki-67(70%),and EGFR(3+)and negative for CK7,CK20,Her2,and CD10.In situ hybridization analysis showed positive staining Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA.Tumor programmed cell death ligand 1(PD-L1)expression score was 98%,and the combined positive score was 100,with no evidence of microsatellite instability.Thus,the patient was unequivocally diagnosed with metastatic stomach LELC secondary to pulmonary LELC.After discharge,this patient underwent PD-1 inhibitor treatment(toripalimab,240 mg)every 3 wk for ten cycles,and she has had no tumor recurrence.CONCLUSION For gastric LELC metastasis,PD-1 inhibitor therapy could become a new therapeutic approach,though there is still no evidence from large data sets to support this.

Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection for neoplasms in the pyloric ring of the stomach: Four case reports

BACKGROUND Tumors located in the pylorus are technically more complex to resect by endoscopic resection,as the anatomical characteristics of this region can affect the adequate assessment of margins and performance of the procedure.We reported the results of underwater endoscopic mucosal resection(UEMR)of benign mucosal neoplasms located in the pyloric ring.CASE SUMMARY This case series describes 4 patients with 4 mucosal neoplasms located in the pyloric ring.The diameter of each neoplasm was less than 15 mm.We performed UEMR for the lesions.Water immersion enabled slight floating of the lesions,resulting in easy identification.We achieved en bloc resection with a snare and electrosurgical unit.All procedure were performed within 3 min without adverse events.Pathologic examination showed low-grade dysplasia with clear resection margins in one case and hyperplastic polyps in three cases.CONCLUSION UEMR can be an effective and safe treatment method for neoplasms in the gastric pyloric ring.

Experimental study on effect of recombinant human growth hormone combined with chemotherapy on stomach neoplasms implanted in nude mice

Objective: To investigate the effect of different doses of recombined growth hormone (rhGH) on stomach neo- plasms implanted in nude mice, and its efficacy in combining with chemotherapy (flurouracil, 5-FU). Methods: Human stom- ach neoplasms model was established in nude mice. The nude mice were divided into control group, moderate-dose of rhGH group, low-dose rhGH group, 5-FU group, moderate-dose rhGH/5-FU group, and low-dose rhGH/5-FU group. The results of each group were observed after ten days. Results: After therapy, the body mass of rhGH groups was significantly increased compared with control group (P<0.05), the body mass of rhGH/5-FU groups was significantly increased compared with 5-FU group (P<0.05), but it was no significant difference between rhGH/5-FU groups and control group (P>0.05). The average tumor mass and volume of rhGH groups were not significantly increased compared with control group (P>0.05), but they were significantly reduced in 5-FU group and rhGH/5-FU groups (P<0.05). They were no significant difference between rhGH/5- FU groups and 5-FU group (P>0.05). After treatment, the percentages of S, G0/G1 and G2/M phases and proliferation index (PI) were not significantly changed in rhGH groups compared with control group (P>0.05), and the same with rhGH/5-FU groups compared with 5-FU group (P>0.05). The difference caused by dose of rhGH was not significant. Conclusion: rhGH enhances body mass, does not stimulate tumor growth, and has no adverse effects on tumor bearing nude mice. Combined with flurouracil, rhGH does not influence the efficacy of chemotherapy, and has no effect on tumor cell cycle kinetics.

Gastric leiomyoma presenting as an endophytic growth of cardia of the stomach: A case report

Gastric leiomyomas are rare submucosal neoplasms arising from smooth muscle cells.It accounts for approximately 2.5%of all gastric tumours,is slow growing and rarely causes symptoms such as upper abdominal discomfort and dyspepsia.1 On imaging,they appear similar to gastrointestinal stromal tumours(GISTs)and can be intraluminal or extraluminal.Diagnosis is mostly confirmed by histopathological examination of the tumour.Surgical resection of the tumour is the main treatment option.Here,we present a case of laparoscopic resection of an endophytic gastric tumour that turned out to be a leiomyoma.

A novel copper metabolism-related signature model for predicting the prognosis,target drugs,and immunotherapy in stomach adenocarcinoma

Stomach adenocarcinoma(STAD)is one of the most common gastric neoplasms with a high death rate.Therefore,there is an urgent need to propose an efficient therapy for STAD.Copper plays key roles in regulating the distribution of immune cells and affecting the tumor immune escape,and may be a novel indicator of immunotherapy in STAD.However,the specific impact of copper metabolism-related genes(CMRGs)on the patient’s prognosis,tumor microenvironment,and immunotherapeutic response remains unelucidated.

Influence of L-methionine-deprived total parenteral nutrition with 5-fluorouracil on gastric cancer and host metabolism

AIM: To investigate the influence of L-methionine-deprived total parenteral nutrition with 5-FU on gastric cancer and host metabolism. METHODS: N-methyl-N'-nitro-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) induced gastric cancer rats were randomly divided into four groups: Met-containing TPN group (n=11), Met-deprived TPN group (n =12), Met-containing TPN+5-FU group (n=11) and Met-deprived TPN+5-FU group (n=12). Five rats in each group were sacrificed after 7 days of treatment and the samples were taken for examination. The remaining rats in each group were then fed separately with normal diet after the treatment until death, the life span was noted. RESULTS: The tumors were enlarged in Met-containing group and shrank in Met-deprived group markedly after the treatment. The DNA index (DI) of tumor cells and the body weight (BW) of rats had no significant change in the two groups, however, the ratio of tumor cells'S phase was increased. The ratio of G2M phase went up in Met-containing group, but down in Met-deprived group. In the other two groups that 5-FU was added, the BW of rats, and the diameter of tumors, the DI of tumor cells, the S and G2M phase ratio of tumor cells were all decreased, particularly in Met-deprived plus 5-FU group. Pathological examination revealed that the necrotic foci of the tumor tissue increased after Met-deprived TPN treatment, and the nucleoli of tumor cells enlarged. In MetTPN+5-FU group, severe nuclear damage was also found by karyopyknosis and karyorrhexis, meanwhile there was slight degeneration in some liver and kidney cells. The serum free Met and Cysteine decreased markedly (P【0.001), while other amino acids, such as serum free serine and glutamine increased significantly (P【0.005). All the rats died of multiple organ failure caused by cancer metastasis. The average survival time was 18.6 days in Met-containing TPN group, 31 days in Met-deprived TPN group, 27.5 days in Met-containing TPN+5-FU group, and 43 days in Met-deprived TPN+5-FU group (P【0.05). CONCLUSION: Met-deprived TPN causes methionine starvation of tumor cells, and can enhance the anti-tumor effect of 5-FU and prolong the life span of gastric cancer bearing rats.

Prognostic value and clinical correlations of18-fluorodeoxyglucose metabolism quantifiers in gastriccancer

AIM： To investigate the correlations of pre-treatmentpositron emission tomography-computer tomography（PET-CT） metabolic quantifiers with clinical data ofunstratified gastric cancer （GC） patients.METHODS： Forty PET-CT scans utilising 18-fluorodeoxyglucosein patients who received no prior treatmentwere analysed. Analysis involved measurements ofmaximum and mean standardised uptake volumes（SUV）, coefficient of variation （COV）, metabolictumour volumes and total lesion glycolysis of differentthresholds above which the tumor volumes wereidentified. The threshold values were： SUV absolutevalue of 2.5, 30% of SUVmax, 40% of SUVmax,and liver uptake-based （marked 2.5, 30, 40 and liv,respectively）. Clinical variables such as age, sex,clinical stage, performance index, weight loss, tumorhistological type and grade, and CEA and CA19.9 levelswere included in survival analysis. Patients receivedvarious treatment modalities appropriate to theirdisease stage and the outcome was defined by time tometastasis （TTM） and overall survival （OS）. Clinical andmetabolic parameters were evaluated by analysis of variance, receiver operating characteristics, univariateKaplan-Meier, and multivariate Cox models. P 〈 0.05was considered statistically significant.RESULTS： Significant differences were observedbetween initially disseminated and non-disseminatedpatients in mean SUV （6.05 vs 4.13, P = 0.008）, TLG2.5（802 cm3 vs 226 cm3; P = 0.031）, and TLG30 （436 cm3vs 247 cm3, P = 0.018）. Higher COV was associatedwith poor tumour differentiation （0.47 for G3 vs0.28 for G1 and G2; P = 0.03）. MTV2.5 was positivelycorrelated to patient weight loss （〈 5%, 5%-10%and 〉 10%： 40.4 cm3 vs 123.6 cm3 vs 181.8 cm3,respectively, P = 0.003）. In multivariate Cox analysis,TLG30 was prognostic for OS （HR = 1.001, 95%CI：1.0009-1.0017; P = 0.047） for the whole group ofpatients. In the same model yet only including patientswithout initial disease dissemination TLG30 （HR = 1.009,95%CI： 1.003-1.014; P = 0.004） and MTV2.5 （HR = 1.02,95%CI： 1.002-1.036; P = 0.025） were prognostic forOS; for TTM TLG30 was the only significant prognosticvariable （HR = 1.006, 95%CI： 1.001-1.012; P = 0.02）.CONCLUSION： PET-CT in GC may represent a valuablediagnostic and prognostic tool that requires furtherevaluation in highly standardised environments such asrandomised clinical trials.

Proton pump inhibitors and stomach neoplasm

This study aimed to explore the relationship between proton pump inhibitors(PPIs)and gastric tumors and determine the reasons behind these connections.We reviewed studies on PPIs and stomach tumors.We explored the relationship between PPIs and different types of gastric neoplasms according to the classification of gastric neoplasms.Long-term use of PPIs is associated with stomach infection,high gastrin levels,and rebound acid hypersecretion,which are directly or indirectly related to the development of gastric neoplasms.PPIs can increase the risk of gastric fundal polyps.Further evidence is needed to prove that it can increase the risk of gastric cancer.

Diffusion tensor imaging and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy in brain tumor Correlation between structure and metabolism

Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and diffusion tensor imaging are non-invasive techniques used to detect metabolites and water diffusion in vivo. Previous studies have confirmed a positive correlation of individual fractional anisotropy values with N-acetylaspartate/creatine and N-acetylaspartate/choline ratios in tumors, edema, and normal white matter. This study divided the brain parenchyma into tumor, pedtumoral edema, and normal-appearing white matter according to MRI data, and analyzed the correlation of metabolites with water molecular diffusion. Results demonstrated that in normal-appearing white matter, N-acetylaspartate/creatine ratios were positively correlated with fractional anisotropy values, negatively correlated with radial diffusivities, and positively correlated with maximum eigenvalues. Maximum eigenvalues and radial diffusivities in peritumoral edema showed a negative correlation with choline, N-acetylaspartate, and creatine. Radial diffusivities in tumor demonstrated a negative correlation with choline. These data suggest that the relationship between metabolism and structure is markedly changed from normal white matter to peritumoral edema and tumor. Neural metabolism in the peritumoral edema area decreased with expanding extracellular space. The normal relationship of neural function and microstructure disappeared in the tumor region.

Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma of the stomach:A rare case report

BACKGROUND Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma(EES)is a rare and highly malignant small round cell tumor associated with a poor clinical outcome.Ewing sarcoma(ES)involving the stomach is an uncommon presentation and can be easily confused with other small round cell tumors.We herein present a rare case of ES involving the gastric area.CASE SUMMARY We report a case of gastric ES in a 19-year-old female patient who initially presented with a complaint of a tender epigastric mass for 5 d.Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed a soft-tissue-density mass with a diameter of 8.5 cm between the liver and stomach;the mass was connected to the gastric antrum.Then,the mass was surgically excised completely.Upon histopathological,immunophenotype and molecular analysis,the mass was identified to be a primary gastric ES.CONCLUSION EES is an aggressive tumor with poor prognosis.Therefore,early diagnosis and timely intervention are essential for a good prognosis.It is imperative for us to raise awareness about this rare tumor.Surgical resection is still the best treatment option.
