    Abstract: 11S glycinin is a major soybean antigenic protein, which induces human and animal allergies. It has been reported to induce intestinal porcine epithelial (IPEC-J2) cell apoptosis, but the role of pyroptosis in 11S glycinin allergies remains unknown. In this study, IPEC-J2 cells were used as an in vitro physiological model to explore the mechanism of 11S glycinin-induced pyroptosis. The cells were incubated with 0, 1, 5, and 10 mg·ml −1 11S glycinin for 24 h. Our results revealed that 11S glycinin significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced DNA damage, generated active oxygen, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, and increased the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP-3) expression of IPEC-J2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Further, IPEC-J2 cells were transfected with designed sh-NLRP-3 lentivirus to silence NLRP-3 . The results showed that 11S glycinin up-regulated the silenced NLRP-3 gene and increased the expression levels of apoptosis-related spot-like protein (ASC), caspase-1, the cleaved gasdermin D, and interleukin-1β. The IPEC-J2 cells showed pyrolysis morphology. Moreover, we revealed that N-acetyl-L-cysteine can significantly inhibit the production of reactive oxygen species and reduce the expression levels of NLRP-3 and the cleaved gasdermin D. Taken together, 11S glycinin up-regulated NLRP-3-induced pyroptosis by triggering reactive oxygen species in IPEC-J2 cells.

    Abstract: Background: Immunotherapy elicits durable responses in many tumors. Nevertheless, the positive response to immunotherapy always depends on the dynamic interactions between the tumor cells and infiltrating lymphocytes in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Currently, the application of immunotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has achieved limited success. The ectopic modification of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a common feature in multiple tumors. However, the relationship between m6A modification with HCC clinical features, prognosis, immune cell infiltration, and immunotherapy efficacy remains unclear. Materials and Methods: Here, we comprehensively evaluated m6A modification clusters based on 22 m6A regulators and systematically explored the relationship between m6A modification with tumor progression, prognosis, and immune cell infiltration characteristics. The m6Ascore was calculated by principal component analysis to quantify the m6A modifications of individual patients. Key regulators involved in immunoregulation in HCC were identified using immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. Results: Three distinct m6A modification clusters were identified. The m6A clusters were significantly associated with clinical features, prognosis, and immune cell infiltration. The three clusters were highly consistent with the three tumor immune phenotypes, i.e., immune-excluded, immune-inflamed, and immune-desert. Comprehensive bioinformatics analysis revealed that high m6Ascore was closely associated with tumor progression, poor prognosis, and immunotherapy non-response. m6A regulators were dysregulated in HCC tissues. Hence, they play a role as predictors of poor prognosis. Tissue microarray demonstrated that overexpressed YTHDF1 was associated with low CD3 + and CD8 + T cell infiltration in HCC. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that m6A modification patterns play a crucial role in the tumor immune microenvironment and the prognosis of HCC. High YTHDF1 expression is closely associated with low CD3 + and CD8 + T cell infiltration in HCC.

    Abstract: Clinical guidelines generally recommend endocrine therapy (ET) as first-line treatment of hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer (HR+ ABC) whereas chemotherapy (CT) should be considered in the presence of life-threatening disease or limited clinical benefit after three sequential ET regimens. However, it is unclear if real-world clinical practice is in accordance with the current guidelines. This study was to present the real-world treatment patterns and ET regimens among HR+ ABC patients in China. Methods Using data from the Nation-wide Multicenter Retrospective Clinical Epidemiology Study of Female Advanced Breast Cancer in China (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03047889), we investigated the clinicopathological characteristics, clinical profiles, and treatment patterns of HR+ ABC patients from January 2012 to December 2014. Results A total of 2,342 patients with HR+ ABC were included in this study. Our findings revealed that, in comparisons with those receiving initial CT (n = 1445), patients initiated ET (n =402) were significantly older, later recurrent after adjuvant treatment, with a lower rate of visceral involvement and a decreasing quantity of metastatic sites. A total of 1,308 patients received palliative ET while only 18.9% patients (n = 247) reached three lines of ET. Among patients completing more than one line of ET, the median treatment duration was 8 months for the first line, 6 months for the second line, and 3 months for the third line for patients receiving ET. In the advanced setting, the choices of palliative ET regimens were diverse, yet aromatase inhibitor (AI) monotherapy was still the overall mainstay of ET; in contrast, patients were less accessible to everolimus plus AI regimen in this population. Conclusions Less than one quarter of patients initiated palliative ET for HR+ ABC in routine clinical practice. Patients who received multi-lines of ET experienced successive shorter durations following each line of therapy. This real-life data provides a solid overview of ET for HR+ ABC from China, indicating unmet need for treatment options that improve the effectiveness of endocrine therapy.

    Abstract: Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are a class of tyrosine kinases that regulate cell-to-cell communication and control a variety of complex biological functions. Dysregulation of RTK signaling partly due to chromosomal rearrangements leads to novel tyrosine kinase fusion oncoproteins that are possibly driver alterations to cancers. Targeting some RTK fusions with specific tyrosine kinases inhibitors (TKIs) is an effective therapeutic strategy across a spectrum of RTK fusion-related cancers. However, there is still a paucity of extensive RTK fusion investigations in breast cancer. This study aims to characterize RTK fusions in Chinese breast cancer patients. Methods An in-house DNA sequencing database of 1440 Chinese breast cancer patients with a capture-based panel (520 gene or 108 gene-panel) was thoroughly reviewed. A total of 2,229 samples including 1,045 tissues and 1,184 plasmas were analyzed. RTK fusion was defined as an in-frame fusion with the tyrosine kinase domain of the RTK completely retained. Concomitant mutations were also analyzed and tumor mutational burden (TMB) was calculated. Patients’ clinical characteristics were retrieved from case records. Results A total of 30 RTK fusion events were identified from 27 breast cancer patients with a prevalence of 1.875%%. FGFR2 fusions were seen the most commonly (n=7), followed by RET (n=5), ROS1 (n=3), NTRK3 (n=3), BRAF (n=2), and NTRK1 (n=2). Other RTK fusions including ALK, EGFR, FGFR1, FGFR3 , MET , and NTRK2 were identified in one patient each. A total of 27 unique resultant fusion proteins (22 with a novel partner) were discovered including 19 intrachromosomal rearrangements and 8 interchromosomal ones. Twenty-one fusions had the tyrosine kinase domain in-frame fused with a partner gene and six were juxtaposed with an intergenic space. Among the 27 fusions, FGFR2-WDR11 (E17: intergenic) (n=3) and ETV6-NTRK3 (E5:E15) (n=2) occurred recurrently. Of note, the normalized abundance of RTK fusion (fusion AF/max AF) correlated negatively with TMB (r=-0.48, P=0.017). Patients with TMB & lt; 8 (Mutations/Mb) displayed a higher fusion abundance than those with TMB ≥ 8 (Mutations/Mb) (P=0.025). Moreover, CREBBP mutation only co-occurred with FGFR2 fusion (P=0.012), while NTRK3 fusion and TP53 mutation were mutually exclusive (P=0.019). Conclusion This is the first study comprehensively delineating the prevalence and spectrum of RTK fusions in Chinese breast cancers. Further study is ongoing to identify the enriched subpopulation who may benefit from RTK fusion inhibitors.

    Abstract: For cancer of unknown primary (CUP), non-selective empiric chemotherapy is usually used. However, patients suffering from CUP are generally assumed to have a dismal prognosis with median overall survival of less than 1 year. Therefore, clinicians eagerly await the establishment of effective strategies for diagnosis and treatment. In recent years, the remarkable advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology have enabled the wide usage of DNA/RNA sequencing to comprehensively analyze the molecular information of individual tumors and identify potential targets for patients’ diagnosis and treatment. Here, we describe a patient of CUP who was successfully diagnosed and treated with targeted therapy directed by comprehensive molecular profiling. Case Presentation A 61-year-old Asian woman with a painless, slow-growing mass lesion in the mesosternum underwent fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography and was found to have malignant metastatic tumors in the mesosternum. Conventional pathological examination of metastatic lesions could not conclude the primary origin of the tumors. The patient was diagnosed with CUP at first. Then, comprehensive molecular profiling was employed to identify the tumor origin and genetic alterations. A gene expression-based tissue origin assay was performed using a tissue biopsy sample. The test result suggested that the lesion tumors might be breast cancer metastasis. Furthermore, liquid biopsy-based circulating tumor DNA profiling detected an ERBB2 copy number amplification. Subsequent surgery and additional postoperative pathology analysis confirmed that the primary tumor site was indeed located in the right outer upper quadrant of the breast. After local surgical resection, the patient received 8 cycles of Docetaxel + Carboplatin + Trastuzumab + Pertuzumab (TCbHP) chemotherapy with subsequent human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 ( HER2 )-targeted maintenance therapy. Currently, the patient is on regular follow-up and has achieved disease control for up to 6 months. Conclusion Our findings suggest that molecular identification of the tumor origin and the detection of actionable molecular alterations may offer promise for improved diagnostic accuracy and important therapeutic implications for patients with the CUP syndrome.

    Abstract: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, and the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression may vary considerably between primary and metastatic lesions, or even within a single lesion. Repeated biopsies cannot always be performed. In this feasibility trial, we assessed whether a novel 68 Ga-NOTA-MAL-MZHER2 ( 68 Ga-HER2) affibody PET/CT could determine the HER2 status of each lesion if there was a clinical need for it. Methods 68 Ga-HER2 affibody PET/CT was performed in breast cancer patients if HER2 status remained unclear after standard examinations (including bone scan, 18 F-FDG PET/CT, CT, and feasible biopsy). All available images for each patient were evaluated through an independent review of two committee-certified radiologists with nuclear medicine expertise. In case of discrepancy, adjudication by a third radiologist was performed as needed. All radiologists were blinded to the clinical information. Results Twenty-four patients were enrolled. 68 Ga-HER2 affibody PET/CT was requested by physicians due to the following reasons: 6 with multiple primary cancers, 13 with metastases not amenable to biopsy or repeated biopsy, 6 with inconsistent HER2 status between primary and metastatic lesions, and 4 with different HER2 status within different metastases. The final PET report revealed that the 68 Ga-HER2 affibody tumor uptake was considered positive in 16 patients, negative in 7 patients, and equivocal in one patient. The heterogeneity of 68 Ga-HER2 affibody uptake was observed, with a maximal 8.5-fold difference within one patient and a maximal 11-fold difference between patients. 68 Ga-HER2 affibody PET/CT demonstrated a high diagnostic accuracy in differentiating HER2-enriched breast cancer, with a sensitivity of 91.7% and a specificity of 84.6%, regardless of prior lines of anti-HER2 therapies. Conclusion 68 Ga-HER2 affibody PET/CT imaging could provide valuable information on HER2 expression of each tumor in the body of patients, which may help in personalized clinical decision-making. Its value is now under systemic assessment.
