Successful curative treatment for a ruptured pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma by radical resection following modified FOLFIRINOX: a case report and literature review
AbstractPancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) is a rare pancreatic tumor type, and ruptured pancreatic tumors are rarer. Computed tomography (CT) in a 48-year-old man incidentally revealed a raptured pancreatic tail tumor. The patient was treated conservatively because he was asymptomatic, and his general condition was stable. After a detailed examination, the pancreatic tumor was diagnosed as raptured PACC. Considering the potential infiltration of tumor cells into the hematoma within the omental sac, our decision is to initiate chemotherapy as the primary course of action. A liquid biopsy was performed, and comprehensi...

Fusobacterium nucleatum carcinogenesis and drug delivery interventions
This article presents a comprehensive review of microbial communities especially F. nucleatum in tumor tissue, exploring their roles and underlying mechanisms in tumor development, treatment, and prevention. When the tumor-associated F. nucleatum is killed, the host immune response is activated to recognize tumor cells. Bacteria epitopes restricted by the host antigens, can be identified for future anti-bacteria/tumor vaccine development.PMID:38643839 | DOI:10.1016/j.addr.2024.115319 (Source: Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews)

Usefulness of the C-Reactive Protein (CRP)-Albumin-Lymphocyte (CALLY) Index as a Prognostic Indicator for Patients With Gastric Cancer
CONCLUSIONS: The CALLY index may be associated with a poor prognosis for gastric cancer, highlighting the utility of a comprehensive assessment using inflammatory, nutritional, and immunological statuses.PMID:38644521 | DOI:10.1177/00031348241248693 (Source: The American Surgeon)

Evaluation of expression level of BANCR, MALAT1 and FER1L4 and their target genes in coumarin-treated AGS cell line
In this study, we investigated the expression level of selected cellular lncRNAs (BANCR, MALAT1 and FER1L4) and their target genes (PTEN, p-PI3K and p-AKT) in coumarin-treated AGS cell line. The expressions of the three lncRNAs: BANCR, MALAT1 and FER1L4, as well as their specified targets, PTEN, PI3K and AKT, were measured by qRT-PCR. To gauge the impact of coumarin on the AGS cells, a MTT assay was utilized. A Western blot has been employed to assess variations in PTEN, p-PI3K, and p-AKT expression. The experiment's results showed that AGS viability diminished with increasing doses of coumarin. Compared to the control cel...

Characteristics and outcomes of cancer patients admitted to intensive care units in cancer specialized hospitals in China
CONCLUSION: Patients with lung cancer require more ICU care due to critical complications and the overall survival prognosis is poor. Colorectal cancer may benefit more from ICU management.
