RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of Lamins B2 (LMNB2) on the migration of human retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RPLS) cells SW872.Methods:Immunohistochemistry was used to analyze the the differential expression levels of LMNB2 in 33 RPLS tissue samples . The correlation between LMNB2 expression and clinical prognosis and clinicopathological features was analyzed. siRNA was used to lower the expression level of LMNB2 in tumor cells, and the effect of LMNB2 on the scratch healing ability and migration ability of SW872 cells was examined by using wound-healing assay and transwell migration assay. The expression levels of p-AKT and AKT in each group cells were detected by Western blot.Results:Patients with high LMNB2 expression had a lower recurrence-free survival and overall survival compared to those with low LMNB2 expression, and were more likely to experience recurrence, ( χ2=4.872, P=0.027; χ2=4.180, P=0.041; χ2=7.127, P=0.008). The migration ability of cells was significantly reduced following the silencing of LMNB2 expression ( t=11.240, P<0.01; t=7.445, P<0.01). The expression level of p-AKT in the silencing group was significantly lower than that in the control group, while there was no significant difference in the expression level of AKT between the two groups ( t=9.784, P<0.01). Conclusion:LMNB2 may promote the migration of human retroperitoneal liposarcoma cells SW872 by regulating AKT signaling pathway.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment methods and curative effect of retroperitoneal ganglioneuromaMethods:The clinical data of 32 cases of retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma admitted to Peking University International Hospital from Apr 2015 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, and their clinical characteristics, surgical efficacy and prognosis were discussed.Results:Of the 32 patients with retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma, 17 had no obvious clinical symptoms, 7 complained abdominal distension and pain, 6 had lower back pain, and 2 had abdominal mass. Tumors were located near the adrenal and renal regions in 18 cases, on both sides of the spine below the kidneys in 11 cases, and in the pelvis in 3 cases. tumors were single in 28 cases, multiple in 4 cases.Tumors were surrounded by major blood vessels in 12 cases. R 0 or R 1 resection was carried out in 27 cases, and palliative R 2 resection in 5 cases, combined organ resection in 6 cases, and piecemed resection in 8 cases. The maximum tumor diameter was (13.2±4.9)cm, the intraoperative blood loss was 500 (50-6 000 ml), and 6 cases suffered from major postoperative complications. Between patients with tumors encircling and encroaching major blood vessels or not, there were significant differences in age, intraoperative blood loss, R 2 resection rate, and pieceneal resection rate between the two groups ( t=2.44, P=0.021; Z=2.37, P=0.018; χ2=4.57, P=0.033; χ2=11.38, P=0.001). There was no recurrence in patients with R 0 or R 1 resection. Conclusions:The prognosis of complete resection of retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma is good .Major blood vessels encroachment of the tumor often leads to incomplente (R 2) resection.
RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the clinicopathological features of primary retroperitoneal paragangliomas.Methods:Data of 24 patients with retroperitoneal paragangliomas who underwent surgical treatment in our hospital from Jan 2015 to Dec 2018 was collected and analyzed.Results:Hypertension, abdominal pain/discomfort and headache were the most common complaints while 10 patients were asymptomatic and were diagnosed accidently in routine body examination. Tumor size ranged from 3.4-13.0 cm (6.9±2.5) cm, and all the tumors were located in the vicinity of abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava. All the patients received surgical treatment. Intraoperative blood pressure fluctuations were significantly correlated with prolonged operation time, more blood loss, more blood transfusion and prolonged length of stay (all P<0.05). The median follow-up time was 29 months and 1 patient died from tumor recurrence and progression. The other patients have had a tumor free survival. Conclusions:Surgical resection was the principal treatment of primary paraganglioma. Preoperative assessment was very important for perioperative safety.
RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate primary retroperitoneal liposarcoma surgeries in combination with involved bowel resection .Methods:Clinical data of primary retroperitoneal liposarcoma patients admitted for surgery at Peking University International Hospital from Jan 2015 to July 2019 were retrospectively reviewed.Results:Twenty-four patients undergoing resectional surgeries combining with bowel resection were included for the study, of which 6 cases underwent right hemicolectomy, 8 did left hemicolectomy, 6 did sigmoidectomy, 2 did proctectomy and 8 did small bowel resection. The post operative morbidity was 38%. 2 of 24 had anastomotic fistula. There was no mortality. Final pathology disclosed well differentiated liposarcoma in 13 and dedifferentiated liposarcoma in 11 cases. 18 cases were confirmed with bowel infiltration pathologically. All patients were followed up after the surgery. After a median of 25 months following up, 8 cases developed recurrences and 3 deceased. Two-year overall survival and progression free survival probability were 91% and 71% respectively. Dedifferentiated liposarcoma as a pathological type was found as the only risk factor associated to poor progression free survival ( Z=2.02, P=0.042). Conclusion:Combining resection of primary retroperitoneal liposarcoma with involved bowel was relatively safe, with low morbidity, increasing tumor clearance. Dedifferentiated liposarcoma is associated wth poor prognosis.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the pathogeny, diagnosis and treatment of solitary fibrous tumors of the abdomen and pelvis.Methods:Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 12 SFT patients undergoing surgical resection in Peking University International Hospital from Jul 2015 to Jul 2019.Results:All patients underwent radical resection. After operation, complications in clued pelvic hemorrhage in 1 case and ureteral fistula in 1 case, all improved after conservative treatment.According to pathological and immunohistochemical results, 7 cases were MSFT and 5 cases were SFT. All patients were followed up for 2-53 months. 5 cases were recurrent, among which 1 case died of intestinal obstruction caused by tumor compression.Conclusion:The clinical manifestations of solitary fibrous tumors are mostly nonspecific.Imaging examination and puncture pathology are of great significance for preoperative diagnosis. Radical resection is an important means to improve the prognosis of patients.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the expression of Aspartate Beta-Hydroxylase (ASPH) in retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RL)and evaluate its clinical significances.Methods Relevant clinical data of 69 RL cases after surgical resection were collected.The expression of ASPH in tumor tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry.The CTL epitopes of ASPH protein HLA-A2 were predicted by SYFPEITHI and NetMHCpan software.Results The overall positive rate of ASPH expression for the whole group was 81%,that for well-differentiated liposarcoma was 73%,dedifferentiated liposarcoma was 87% (P < 0.05).ASPH expression was positively correlated with the postoperative recurrence free survival rate (P < 0.05).Five HLA-A2 restricted CTL epitopes (9 peptides) were screened with the method of motif prediction.Conclusions ASPH expression is positively correlated with the degree of malignancy of RL,and the ASPH expression is an independent risk factor for postoperative recurrence free survival rate of RL.Moreover,ASPH was found to have 5 HLA-A2 restricted CTL epitopes,which are expected to be used for the immunotherapy of RL.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the feasibility of repairing porcine bile duct defect with decellularized rabbit abdominal aorta matrix scaffold.Methods Sodium dodecyl sulfate and Sodium deoxycholate were used to remove the cells in the blood vessel,and the residual DNA and RNA fragments were removed by nuclease.The prepared scaffold was implanted to repair defect of bile duct in swine,which were sacrificed after 45 days of surgery for histological evaluation.Results HE,Masson and elastic fiber staining showed that the composition and structure of the scaffold maintained their native features after dcellularization treatment.DNA content in acelllular scaffold (0.12 ± 0.01) μg/mg dry weight) was significantly decreased as compared with the native ones (2.31 ± 0.03) μg/mg dry weight,P < 0.05).Collagen content was increased from (152 ±22) μg/mg dry weight in intact aorta to (177 ±21) μg/mg dry weight.Adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells with typical morphology survived well in the decellularized vascular matrix.It was observed that seeded ASCs penetrated into the inner wall of the scaffold.After transplantation,there was no leakage in the anastomosis and collapse of acellular blood vessel matrix.After 45 days of transplantation,repaired bile duct was harvested for histological evaluation.HE and Masson staining revealed that there were a large number of cells distributed in the inner wall of the scaffold,and some suspected epithelial cells and glands were found.Conclusion Decellularized aorta matrix scaffold hold great potential in serving as scaffold repairing defect of bile duct.
