Evidence suggests a possible role of Fusobacterium nucleatum in colorectal carcinogenesis, especially right-sided proximal colorectum. Considering change bowel contents and microbiome from to distal segments, we hypothesized that the proportion carcinoma enriched with F. might gradually increase along subsites rectum cecum.A retrospective, cross-sectional analysis was conducted on 1,102 colon rectal carcinomas molecular pathological epidemiology databases Nurses' Health Study Professionals...

The presence of Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) in colorectal carcinoma tissue has been associated with microsatellite instability (MSI), lower-level T-cell infiltrates, and poor clinical outcomes. Considering differences the tumor-immune microenvironment between MSI-high non-MSI-high carcinomas, we hypothesized that association F. immune response might differ by tumor MSI status. Using samples from 1,041 rectal colon cancer patients within Nurses' Health Study Professionals Follow-up...

Purpose Blockade of the programmed cell death 1 (PDCD1, PD-1) immune checkpoint pathway can improve clinical outcomes in various malignancies. Evidence suggests that aspirin (a widely used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug) not only prolongs colorectal cancer survival, but also activate T cell-mediated antitumor immunity and synergize with immunotherapy through inhibition prostaglandin E2 production. We hypothesized survival benefit associated might be stronger carcinoma a lower CD274...

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are one of the most abundant stromal cells in tumor microenvironment which mediate desmoplastic response and primary driver for an immunosuppressive microenvironment, leading to failure triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) immunotherapy. Therefore, depleting CAFs may enhance effect immunotherapy (such as PD-L1 antibody). Relaxin (RLN) has been demonstrated significantly improve transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) induced activation microenvironment....

Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2, cyclooxygenase-2; a target of aspirin) produces inflammatory mediator prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and contributes to colorectal neoplasia development. PTGS2-driven responses can induce tumor expression microRNA MIR21 (miR-21) that increase local PGE2 level by downregulating PGE2-metabolizing enzymes. We hypothesized the prognostic association in carcinoma might depend on microenvironment be stronger tumors expressing high-level PTGS2.Utilizing 765...

Inhibitors targeting the PDCD1 (programmed cell death 1, PD-1) immune checkpoint pathway have revolutionized cancer treatment strategies. The TIME (Tumor Immunity in MicroEnvironment) classification based on tumor CD274 (PDCD1 ligand PD-L1) expression and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) has been proposed to predict response immunotherapy. It remains be determined clinical, pathological, molecular features of subtypes colorectal cancer. Using 812 colon rectal carcinoma cases from Nurses'...

Expression of the immune checkpoint ligand CD274 (programmed cell death 1 1, PD-L1, from gene CD274) contributes to suppression antitumor T cell-mediated response in various tumor types. However, role PDCD1LG2 (PD-L2, CD273, PDCD1LG2) microenvironment remains unclear. We hypothesized that expression might be inversely associated with lymphocytic reactions colorectal cancer. examined by IHC 823 colon and rectal carcinoma cases within two U.S.-nationwide cohort studies categorized tumors into...

Abstract Accumulating evidence suggests that metabolic reprogramming has a critical role in carcinogenesis and tumor progression. The usefulness of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue material for metabolomics analysis as compared with fresh frozen remains unclear. LC/MS-MS–based was performed on 11 pairs matched normal tissues both FFPE materials from patients colorectal carcinoma. Permutation t test applied to identify metabolites differential abundance between tissues. A total...

Experimental evidence suggests that the let-7 family of noncoding RNAs suppresses adaptive immune responses, contributing to evasion by tumor. We hypothesized amount let-7a and let-7b expression in colorectal carcinoma might be associated with limited T-lymphocyte infiltrates tumor microenvironment worse clinical outcome.

Colorectal tumors arise with genomic and epigenomic alterations through interactions between neoplastic cells, immune microbiota that vary along the proximal to distal axis of colorectum. Long interspersed nucleotide element-1 (LINE-1) hypomethylation in colorectal cancer has been associated worse clinical outcome.
