Mashup Score: 8GERMLINE PATHOGENIC VARIANTS IN PATIENTS WITH PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMA AND EXTRA-PANCREATIC MALIGNANCIES: A NATIONWIDE DATABASE ANALYSIS - 10 day(s) ago
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease. About 10% of affected individuals have an inherited component. Deleterious germline variants increase the lifetime risk for PDAC and are often associated with an elevated risk for extra-pancreatic malignancies. In this study, we aim to determine the prevalence and impact of germline pathogenic variants (gPVs) in patients with PDAC and extra-pancreatic malignancies. Using tissue samples and longitudinal data from a nationwide pathology database, we identified patients with PDAC and a set of seven extra-pancreatic malignancies to investigate the presence of gPVs in 25 cancer susceptibility genes with targeted next-generation sequencing.

The gut microbiome plays an important role in the carcinogenesis of luminal gastrointestinal malignancies and response to antineoplastic therapy. Preclinical studies have suggested a role of intratumoral gammaproteobacteria in mediating response to gemcitabine-based chemotherapy in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the impact of the PDAC microbiome on chemotherapy response using samples from human pancreatic tumor resections. We performed 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing on both formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and fresh frozen human PDAC resection samples. We analyzed frozen samples from 26 patients with resected PDAC and examined tumor and tumor-adjacent normal tissue. These patients represented nine long-term survivors (LTS) and nine short-term survivors (STS) after neoadjuvant gemcitabine therapy and eight control patients who did not receive any neoadjuvant therapy prior to resection. We also included FF

Mashup Score: 2The Role of Myeloid Cells on the Development of Hepatic Metastases in Gastrointestinal Cancer - 11 day(s) ago
The development of hepatic metastases is the leading cause of mortality in gastrointestinal (GI) cancers and substantial research efforts have been focused on elucidating the intricate mechanisms by which tumor cells successfully migrate to, invade, and ultimately colonize the liver parenchyma. Recent evidence has shown that perturbations in myeloid biology occur early in cancer development, characterized by the initial expansion of specific innate immune populations that promote tumor growth and facilitate metastases.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) carries an extremely poor prognosis, in part resulting from cellular heterogeneity that supports overall tumorigenicity. Cancer associated fibroblasts (CAF) are key determinants of PDAC biology and response to systemic therapy. While CAF subtypes have been defined, the effects of patient-specific CAF heterogeneity and plasticity on tumor cell behavior remain unclear. Here, multi-omics was used to characterize the tumor microenvironment (TME) in tumors from patients undergoing curative-intent surgery for PDAC. In these same patients, matched tumor organoid and CAF lines were established to functionally validate the impact of CAFs on the tumor cells. CAFs were found to drive epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and a switch in tumor cell classificiaton from classical to basal subtype. Furthermore, we identified CAF-specific interleukin 8 (IL-8) as an important modulator of tumor cell subtype. Finally, we defined neighborhood relationships betwee
