    Abstract: Metabolically healthy obese (MHO) states exist that seem to be protected from cardiovascular risks. Although obesity is a risk factor for colorectal adenoma (CRA), there has yet to be any study of the risks of CRA in MHO individuals. In this study, we compared CRA prevalence in MHO individuals versus metabolically healthy individuals who were normal in weight. This cross-sectional study involved 18,085 Korean adults (39.1 ± 6.7 years) who had a health checkup including a colonoscopy. High-risk CRA was defined as any adenoma over 1 cm, 3 or more adenomas, adenoma with a villous component, or high-grade dysplasia. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to measure the associations between body mass index (BMI) and the risk of low-risk and high-risk CRA. Low-risk and high-risk CRA were present in 9.3% and 1.4% of the study population, respectively. After adjusting for age, sex, smoking, drinking, exercise, family history of colorectal cancer, education, and use of analgesic and aspirin, compared with normal healthy individuals, the prevalence of low-risk and high-risk CRA was increased in MHO individuals [OR = 1.44; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.23–1.69 and OR = 1.62; 95% CI, 1.09–2.41, respectively]. In fully adjusted models, the prevalence of low-risk and high-risk CRA was associated with increasing categories of BMI in a dose–response manner (P for trend & lt; 0.001 and 0.01, respectively). Thus, excess body weight, even in the absence of a metabolic unhealthy state, was found to be positively associated with increased presence of CRAs. Cancer Res; 73(13); 4020–7. ©2013 AACR.

    Abstract: Mesothelin (MSLN) is an antigen overexpressed in several malignancies, including mesothelioma and ovarian and pancreatic adenocarcinoma. It has been studied as a marker for diagnosis and a target for immunotherapy. Here, we adopted a bispecific antibody format for recruiting cytotoxic T cells to kill tumor cells. MG1122 is a novel, whole IgG-like bispecific antibody which recognizes CD3 on T cells and MSLN on tumor cells. MG1122 induced effective killing of MSLN-expressing tumor cells. This response was associated with robust activation of T cells as shown by nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) activation, CD25 and CD69 upregulation and increased cytokine release. In addition, using a live cell analysis system, we found that levels of activated caspase 3/7 were amplified in the tumor cells by MG1122 treatment. Although MSLN is a surface antigen, it also exists as a secreted isoform, which can lead to tumor evasion against MSLN targeting antibodies. However, despite the high concentration of soluble MSLN, MG1122 still effectively bound and showed strong killing effects against MSLN-expressing tumor cells. Taken together, our MSLN/CD3 bispecific antibody, MG1122 offers a promising opportunity to redirect T cells to kill MSLN-expressing cancer cells.

    Abstract: Although cytotoxic chemotherapy is widely used against epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), adverse side effects and emergence of resistance can limit its utility. Therefore, new drugs with systemic delivery platforms are urgently needed for this disease. In this study, we developed linalool-incorporated nanoparticles (LIN-NP) as a novel anticancer agent. We prepared LIN-NPs by the self-assembly water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w) emulsion method. LIN-NP–mediated cytotoxicity and apoptosis was assessed in EOC cells, and the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation as the mechanism of action was evaluated. In addition, therapeutic efficacy of LIN-NP was assessed in cell lines and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models for EOC. LIN-NPs had significant cytotoxicity and apoptotic activity against EOC cells, including A2780, HeyA8, and SKOV3ip1. LIN-NP treatment increased apoptosis in EOC cells through ROS generation and a subsequent decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential and increase in caspase-3 levels. In addition, 100 mg/kg LIN-NPs significantly decreased tumor weight in the HeyA8 (P & lt; 0.001) and SKOV3ip1 (P = 0.006) in vivo models. Although treatment with 50 mg/kg LIN-NP did not decrease tumor weight compared with the control group, combination treatment with paclitaxel significantly decreased tumor weight compared with paclitaxel alone in SKOV3ip1 xenografts (P = 0.004) and the patient-derived xenograft model (P = 0.020). We have developed LIN-NPs that induce ROS generation as a novel anticancer agent for EOC. These findings have broad applications for cancer therapy. Mol Cancer Ther; 15(4); 618–27. ©2016 AACR.

    Abstract: Purpose: There are no reliable prognostic markers that identify gastric cancer patients who may benefit from adjuvant chemoradiation therapy. E2F-1 was shown to be associated with radiosensitivity and chemosensitivity in certain tumor types. Therefore, we analyzed expression and prognostic significance of E2F-1 along with thymidylate synthase (TS) in R0-resected gastric adenocarcinoma patients, who underwent adjuvant chemoradiation therapy with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin. Experimental Design: The chemosensitivity to 5-FU and radiosensitivity were tested in three E2F-1–overexpressed gastric cancer cell lines in vitro. The expressions of TS and E2F-1 were analyzed in 467 R0-resected primary gastric cancer patients, who received adjuvant chemoradiation therapy with 5-FU and leucovorin using tissue microarray. Results: The E2F-1 immunopositivity rate was 22.2% (103 of 465 samples) with a cutoff value of 5% immunoreactivity, whereas the TS-positive expression occurred in 19.0% of the 463 tumors tested. Using stepwise Cox proportional hazards regression modeling, multivariate analyses showed that the E2F-1 immunopositivity predicted more favorable survival as compared with the E2F-1 immunonegativity with borderline statistical significance [P = 0.050, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.702, 95% confidence interval, 0.487, 1.013]. However, the E2F-1 immunopositivity did not retain its statistical significance at multivariate analys is for predicting disease-free survival (data not shown, P = 0.270), but stage was the only influential factor for disease-free survival in stages IB to IV (M0) patients (P & lt; 0.001). TS immunopositivity did not influence survival (P = 0.459) or disease-free survival (P = 0.447). Conclusion: E2F-1 is a potentially novel independent prognostic factor that may identify gastric cancer patients who will likely benefit from adjuvant chemoradiation therapy following curative resection.

    Abstract: Oncogenic KIT and PDGFRA mutations play an important role in the development of some, but not all, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Other chromosomal alterations are involved in the clinical progression of these cancers, but these have not been well defined. We studied the association between copy number alterations (CNAs) and gene expression in 32 GISTs, including 4 wild type tumors, using array CGH and gene expression analyses. All tumors exhibited multiple CNAs and significant numbers of novel recurrent regions were identified in wild type GISTs. Among them, a significant correlation with the corresponding expression between wild type and mutant GISTs was observed in 1p and 22q, which harbor SDHB and GSTT1 genes, respectively. All 7 GISTs with copy number losses on 1p36.33-p11.2 showed loss of heterozygosity in at least one of 3 microsatellite markers in the SDHB gene. Loss of SDH complex activity in GISTs can result in increased level of HIF1, which activates the transcription of VEGF and IGF2. In this study, VEGF (2.31-fold increase, P=0.025) and IGF1R (2.76-fold increase, P=0.062) expression levels were higher in wild type/PDGFRA D842V GISTs compared to KIT-mutant GISTs. As constituents of the MAPK cascade, mRNA levels of BRAF (0.50-fold increase, P=0.001) and its downstream effector, MYC (2.21-fold increase, P=0.017) were also increased in wild type/PDGFRA D842V GISTs. For GSTT1, qRT-PCR on all 32 GISTs in this cohort and 22 additional malignant GISTs showed significantly frequent gains of GSTT1 copy number in wild type/PDGFRA D842V GISTs compared to KIT-mutant GISTs (91.7% vs. 54.8%; P=0.03). Gains of GSTT1 copy number correlated positively with mRNA expression by qRT-PCR (r=0.705, P & lt;0.001). Unexpectedly, all four patients with malignant GISTs in the small intestine and KIT exon 11 deletion mutations showing primary resistance to imatinib showed increased copy numbers and mRNA expression of GSTT1. Our integrative approach reveals that for the patients with wild type (or imatinib-resistant) GISTs, attempts to target IGF1R and VEGFR2 would seem to be reasonable options. Moreover, copy number analysis of GSTT1 may be an effective tool to predict imatinib response, and hence help select the best drug and an optimal dose. Further large-scale and well-designed clinical studies are warranted to validate our findings.

    Abstract: Purpose: SIRT1 (silent mating-type information regulation 2 homologue 1) expression has been reported to predict poor survival in some cancers. We therefore investigated the expression levels of SIRT1 and its negative regulator, DBC1 (deleted in breast cancer 1), in gastric cancer patients. Experimental Design: We evaluated immunohistochemical expression of DBC1, SIRT1, and p53 using 3-mm tumor cores from 177 gastric cancer patients for tissue microarray. Results: Positive expressions of DBC1 and SIRT1 were seen in 62% (109 of 177) and in 73% (130 of 177) of patients, respectively. Expression of DBC1 was significantly correlated with tumor stage (P = 0.007), lymph node metastasis (P & lt; 0.001), tumor invasion (P = 0.001), venous invasion (P = 0.001), histologic types (P & lt; 0.001), p53 expression (P & lt; 0.001), and SIRT1 expression (P & lt; 0.001). SIRT1 expression was also significantly correlated with tumor stage (P & lt; 0.001), lymph node metastasis (P & lt; 0.001), tumor invasion (P & lt; 0.001), histologic types (P & lt; 0.001), and p53 expression (P = 0.001). In addition, expression of DBC1 was significantly associated with shorter overall survival and relapse-free survival by univariate analysis (P & lt; 0.001 and P & lt; 0.001, respectively). SIRT1 expression was also significantly associated with shorter overall survival and relapse-free survival by univariate analysis (P = 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively). Multivariate analysis showed that tumor stage and expression of DBC1 were independent prognostic factors significantly associated with overall survival and relapse-free survival. Conclusion: This study shows that expression of DBC1 and SIRT1 is a significant prognostic indicator for gastric carcinoma patients.

    Abstract: Purpose: Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is believed to be involved in carcinogenesis in patients with chronic gastritis with Helicobacter pylori infection. EBV is detected in ∼10% of gastric carcinomas and H. pylori induces EBV reactivation in the gastric epithelium. We aimed to evaluate significance of COX-2 in gastric carcinoma occurred in EBV and H. pylori prevalent area. Experimental Design: Tissue microarray samples from 457 gastric carcinoma patients who underwent gastrectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy were studied with EBER1 in situ hybridization for EBV and immunohistochemistry for COX-2 and other gastric carcinoma-related proteins (hMLH1, E-cadherin, c-erbB, and cyclin D1). Results: EBV infection was observed in 10.9% of gastric carcinomas and was associated with proximal tumor location, increased numbers of lymph node, and E-cadherin expression (P & lt; 0.01). COX-2 overexpression was closely associated with intestinal histologic type and lower tumor stage (P = 0.01). Univariate analysis showed that pT, pN, lymph node ratio, American Joint Committee on Cancer stage, numbers of negative lymph nodes, and resection margin & lt;1 cm were significant prognostic factors. The Cox proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that lack of COX-2 expression and resection margin & lt;1 cm were independent prognostic factors for disease-free survival (P = 0.008 and 0.03, respectively) and overall survival (P = 0.01 and 0.007, respectively). Conclusions: EBV infection is not associated with COX-2 expression or survival in gastric carcinoma. Lack of COX-2 expression is an independent prognostic factor in both overall and disease-free survival in gastric carcinoma. Our results indicate that COX-2 may play a role in the progression of gastric carcinoma regardless of EBV infection and is closely associated with histologic differentiation and prognosis.

    Abstract: Purpose: This study was aimed at developing and validating a quantitative multigene assay for predicting tumor recurrence after gastric cancer surgery. Experimental Design: Gene expression data were generated from tumor tissues of patients who underwent surgery for gastric cancer (n = 267, training cohort). Genes whose expression was significantly associated with activation of YAP1 (a frequently activated oncogene in gastrointestinal cancer), 5-year recurrence-free survival, and 5-year overall survival were first identified as candidates for prognostic genes (156 genes, P & lt; 0.001). We developed the recurrence risk score (RRS) by using quantitative RT-PCR to identify genes whose expression levels were significantly associated with YAP1 activation and patient survival in the training cohort. Results: We based the RRS assay on 6 genes, IGFBP4, SFRP4, SPOCK1, SULF1, THBS, and GADD45B, whose expression levels were significantly associated with YAP1 activation and prognosis in the training cohort. The RRS assay was further validated in an independent cohort of 317 patients. In multivariate analysis, the RRS was an independent predictor of recurrence [HR, 1.6; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.02–2.4; P = 0.03] . In patients with stage II disease, the RRS had an HR of 2.9 (95% CI, 1.1–7.9; P = 0.03) and was the only significant independent predictor of recurrence. Conclusions: The RRS assay was a valid predictor of recurrence in the two cohorts of patients with gastric cancer. Independent prospective studies to assess the clinical utility of this assay are warranted. Clin Cancer Res; 22(24); 6228–35. ©2016 AACR.

    Abstract: Snail is a key regulator of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is a major step in tumor metastasis. Although the induction of Snail transcription precedes EMT, posttranslational regulation, especially phosphorylation of Snail, is critical for determining Snail protein levels or stability, subcellular localization, and the ability to induce EMT. To date, several kinases are known that enhance the stability of Snail by preventing its ubiquitination; however, the molecular mechanism(s) underlying this are still unclear. Here, we identified p38 MAPK as a crucial posttranslational regulator that enhances the stability of Snail. p38 directly phosphorylated Snail at Ser107, and this effectively suppressed DYRK2-mediated Ser104 phosphorylation, which is critical for GSK3β-dependent Snail phosphorylation and βTrCP-mediated Snail ubiquitination and degradation. Importantly, functional studies and analysis of clinical samples established a crucial role for the p38–Snail axis in regulating ovarian cancer EMT and metastasis. These results indicate the potential therapeutic value of targeting the p38–Snail axis in ovarian cancer. Significance: These findings identify p38 MAPK as a novel regulator of Snail protein stability and potential therapeutic target in ovarian cancer.

    Abstract: Purpose: The intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) and the evolution of genomic architectures associated with the development of distant metastases are not well understood in colorectal cancers. Experimental Design: We performed multiregion biopsies of primary and liver metastatic regions from five colorectal cancers with whole-exome sequencing and copy number profiling. Results: In addition to a substantial level of genetic ITH, multiregion genetic profiling identifies the subclonal mutational architecture, leading to the region-based or spatial categorization of somatic mutations and the inference of intratumoral evolutionary history of cancers. The universal mutations (those observed in all the regional biopsies) are enriched in known cancer genes such as APC and TP53 with distinct mutational spectra compared with biopsy- or region-specific mutations, suggesting that major operative mutational mechanisms and their selective pressures are not constant across the metastatic progression. The phylogenies inferred from genomic data show branching evolutionary patterns where some primary biopsies are often segregated with metastastic lesions. Our analyses also revealed that copy number changes such as the chromosomal gains of c-MYC and chromothripsis can be region specific and the potential source of genetic ITH. Conclusions: Our data show that the genetic ITH is prevalent in colorectal cancer serving as a potential driving force to generate metastasis-initiating clones and also as a means to infer the intratumoral evolutionary history of cancers. The paucity of recurrent metastasis-clonal events suggests that colorectal cancer distant metastases may not follow a uniform course of genomic evolution, which should be considered in the genetic diagnosis and the selection of therapeutic targets for the advanced colorectal cancer.
