    Abstract: The novel COVID-19 outbreak has affected more than 200 countries and territories as of March 2020. Given that patients with cancer are generally more vulnerable to infections, systematic analysis of diverse cohorts of patients with cancer affected by COVID-19 are needed. We performed a multi-center study including 105 cancer patients and 536 age-matched non-cancer patients confirmed with COVID-19. Our results showed COVID-19 patients with cancer had higher risks in all severe outcomes. Patients with hematological cancer, lung cancer, or with metastatic cancer (stage IV) had the highest frequency of severe events. Non-metastatic cancer patients experienced similar frequencies of severe conditions to those observed in patients without cancer. Patients who received surgery had higher risks of having severe events, while patients with only radiotherapy did not demonstrate significant differences in severe events when compared to patients without cancer. These findings indicate that cancer patients appear more vulnerable to SARS-COV-2 outbreak. Since this is the first large cohort study on this topic, our report will provide the much-needed information that will benefit global cancer patients. As such, we believe it is extremely important that our study be disseminated widely to alert clinicians and patients.

    Abstract: Retinoic acid receptors (RAR; α, β, and γ), members of the nuclear receptor superfamily, mediate the pleiotropic effects of the vitamin A metabolite retinoic acid (RA) and derivatives (retinoids) in normal and cancer cells. Abnormal expression and function of RARs are often involved in the growth and development of cancer. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely elusive. Here, we report that levels of RARγ were significantly elevated in tumor tissues from a majority of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and in HCC cell lines. Overexpression of RARγ promoted colony formation by HCC cells in vitro and the growth of HCC xenografts in animals. In HepG2 cells, transfection of RARγ enhanced, whereas downregulation of RARγ expression by siRNA approach impaired, the effect of RA on inducing the expression of α-fetoprotein, a protein marker of hepatocarcinogenesis. In studying the possible mechanism by which overexpression of RARγ contributed to liver cancer cell growth and transformation, we observed that RARγ resided mainly in the cytoplasm of HCC cells, interacting with the p85α regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). The interaction between RARγ and p85α resulted in activation of Akt and NF-κB, critical regulators of the growth and survival of cancer cells. Together, our results show that overexpression of RARγ plays a role in the growth of HCC cells through nongenomic activation of the PI3K/Akt and NF-κB signaling pathways. Cancer Res; 70(6); 2285–95

    Abstract: Previously, we reported that SV40 T/t-common polypeptide, which contains the NH2-terminal common domain of SV40 large T and small t antigens, can repress HER2/neu (also known as erbB-2) expression and consequently suppress the tumorigenic potential of the HER2/neu-overexpressing ovarian carcinoma cells. Here we report that T/t-common could specifically induce apoptosis in HER2/neu-overexpressing human cancer cell lines but not in nontransformed cell lines and HER2/neu low-expressing human cancer cell lines. The ability of T/t-common to induce apoptosis in HER2/neu-overexpressing cancer cells was derived from its ability to inhibit HER2/neu because reexpression of a large amount of HER2/neu could block apoptosis induced by T/t-common. T/t-common expression in HER2/neu-overexpressing SK-OV-3 cancer cells led to down-regulation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL, and overexpression of Bcl-2 could inhibit the ability of T/t-common to induce apoptosis in these cells. Therefore, the apoptosis-inducing activity of T/t-common is related to its ability to inhibit Bcl-2 expression in HER2/neu-overexpressing cancer cells. Consistent with the apoptosis-inducing activity of T/t-common, we found that T/t-common could specifically inhibit the soft-agarose colony-forming ability of the HER2/neu-overexpressing human cancer cell lines but not that of the HER2/neu low-expressing human cancer cell lines. Finally, we showed that T/t-common could specifically sensitize HER2/neu-overexpressing human cancer cell lines, but not HER2/neu low-expressing human cancer cell lines, to chemotherapeutic agent etoposide. Together, these data suggest that T/t-common alone or in combination with chemotherapy may provide a new approach for treatment of cancers that overexpress HER2/neu.

    Abstract: Background: In the present study, we assessed the clinical value of circulating tumor cells (CTC) with stem-like phenotypes for diagnosis, prognosis, and surveillance in hepatitis B virus (HBV)–related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by an optimized qPCR-based detection platform. Methods: Differing subsets of CTCs were investigated, and a multimarker diagnostic CTC panel was constructed in a multicenter patient study with independent validation (total n = 1,006), including healthy individuals and patients with chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB), liver cirrhosis (LC), benign hepatic lesion (BHL), and HBV-related HCC, with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC) reflecting diagnostic accuracy. The role of the CTC panel in treatment response surveillance and its prognostic significance were further investigated. Results: The AUC of the CTC panel was 0.88 in the training set [sensitivity = 72.5%, specificity = 95.0%, positive predictive value (PPV) = 92.4, negative predictive value (NPV) = 77.8] and 0.93 in the validation set (sensitivity = 82.1%, specificity = 94.2%, PPV = 89.9, NPV = 89.3). This panel performed equally well in detecting early-stage and α-fetoprotein–negative HCC, as well as differentiating HCC from CHB, LC, and BHL. The CTC load was decreased significantly after tumor resection, and patients with persistently high CTC load showed a propensity of tumor recurrence after surgery. The prognostic significance of the CTC panel in predicting tumor recurrence was further confirmed [training: HR = 2.692; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.617–4.483; P & lt; 0.001; and validation: HR = 3.127; 95% CI, 1.360–7.190; P = 0.007]. Conclusions: Our CTC panel showed high sensitivity and specificity in HCC diagnosis and could be a real-time parameter for risk prediction and treatment monitoring, enabling early decision-making to tailor effective antitumor strategies.

    Abstract: Purpose: The spatial heterogeneity of phenotypic and molecular characteristics of CTCs within the circulatory system remains unclear. Herein, we mapped the distribution and characterized biological features of CTCs along the transportation route in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Experimental Design: In 73 localized HCC patients, blood was drawn from peripheral vein (PV), peripheral artery (PA), hepatic veins (HV), infrahepatic inferior vena cava (IHIVC), and portal vein (PoV) before tumor resection. Epithelial and mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype in CTCs were analyzed by a 4-channel immunofluorescence CellSearch assay and microfluidic quantitative RT-PCR. The clinical significance of CTCs from different vascular sites was evaluated. Results: The CTC number and size gradient between tumor efferent vessels and postpulmonary peripheral vessels was marked. Tracking the fate of CTC clusters revealed that CTCs displayed an aggregated–singular-aggregated manner of spreading. Single-cell characterization demonstrated that EMT status of CTCs was heterogeneous across different vascular compartments. CTCs were predominantly epithelial at release, but switched to EMT-activated phenotype during hematogeneous transit via Smad2 and β-catenin related signaling pathways. EMT activation in primary tumor correlated with total CTC number at HV, rather than epithelial or EMT-activated subsets of CTCs. Follow-up analysis suggested that CTC and circulating tumor microemboli burden in hepatic veins and peripheral circulation prognosticated postoperative lung metastasis and intrahepatic recurrence, respectively. Conclusions: The current data suggested that a profound spatial heterogeneity in cellular distribution and biological features existed among CTCs during circulation. Multivascular measurement of CTCs could help to reveal novel mechanisms of metastasis and facilitate prediction of postoperative relapse or metastasis pattern in HCC.
