Paneth Cell in Adenomas of the Distal Colorectum Is Inversely Associated with Synchronous Advanced Adenoma and Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have linked appearance of Paneth cells in colorectal adenomas to adenoma burden and male gender. However, the clinical importance of Paneth cells' associations with synchronous advanced adenoma (AA) and colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is currently unclear. We performed a comprehensive case-control study using 1,900 colorectal adenomas including 785 from females, and 1,115 from males. We prospectively reviewed and recorded Paneth cell status in the colorectal adenomas consecutively collected between February 2014 and June 2015. Multivariable logistic regression analyses revealed that, in contrast to the adenomas without Paneth cells, the Paneth cell-containing adenomas at distal colorectum were inversely associated with presence of a synchronous AA or CRC (odds ratio [OR] 0.39, P = 0.046), whereas no statistical significance was reached for Paneth cell-containing proximal colorectal adenomas (P = 0.33). Synchronous AA and CRC were significantly associated with older age (60 + versus <60 years, OR 1.60, P = 0.002), male gender (OR 1.42, P = 0.021), and a history of AA or CRC (OR 2.31, P < 0.001). However, synchronous CRC was not associated with Paneth cell status, or a history of AA or CRC. Paneth cell presence in the adenomas of distal colorectum may be a negative indicator for synchronous AA and CRC, and seems to warrant further studies.

Meta-Analysis of the Effect of Bowel Preparation on Adenoma Detection: Early Adenomas Affected Stronger than Advanced Adenomas.

Project description:Low-quality bowel preparation reduces efficacy of colonoscopy. We aimed to summarize effects of bowel preparation on detection of adenomas, advanced adenomas and colorectal cancer.A systematic literature search was performed regarding detection of colonic lesions after normal and low-quality bowel preparation. Reported bowel preparation quality was transformed to the Aronchick scale with its qualities "excellent", "good", "fair", "poor", and "insufficient" or "optimal" (good/excellent), "suboptimal" (fair/poor/insufficient), "adequate" (good/excellent/fair) and "inadequate" (poor/insufficient). We identified two types of studies: i) Comparative studies, directly comparing lesion detection according to bowel preparation quality, and ii) repeat colonoscopy studies, reporting results of a second colonoscopy after previous low-quality preparation.The detection of early adenomas was reduced with inadequate vs. adequate bowel preparation (Odds Ratio (OR) 0.53, CI: 0.46-0.62, p<0.001). The advanced adenomas were affected less in comparison (0.74, CI: 0.62-0.87, p<0.001). The large number of subjects considered in the present meta-analysis resulted in smaller confidence intervals compared to earlier studies. Classifying the bowel-preparation quality as suboptimal vs. optimal led to the same qualitative conclusion (OR: 0.81, CI: 0.74-0.89, p<0.001 for early adenomas, OR: 0.94, CI: 0.87-1.01, n.s. for advanced adenomas). Bowel preparation was equally important for right-sided/ flat/ serrated vs. other lesions in most observational studies but more relevant in some repeat colonoscopy studies; data regarding carcinoma detection were insufficient.Inadequate bowel preparation affects detection of early colonic lesions stronger than advanced lesions.

Comparison of biomarker expression between proximal and distal colorectal adenomas: The Tennessee-Indiana Adenoma Recurrence Study.

Project description:It is unclear if proximal and distal traditional adenomas present with differences in molecular events which contribute to cancer heterogeneity by tumor anatomical subsite. Participants from a colonoscopy-based study (n = 380) were divided into subgroups based on the location of their most advanced adenoma: proximal, distal, or "equivalent both sides." Eight biomarkers in the most advanced adenomas were evaluated by immunohistochemistry (Ki-67, COX-2, TGFβRII, EGFR, β-catenin, cyclin D1, c-Myc) or TUNEL (apoptosis). After an adjustment for pathological features, there were no significant differences between proximal and distal adenomas for any biomarker. Conversely, expression levels did vary by other features, such as their size, villous component, and synchronousness. Large adenomas had higher expression levels of Ki-67(P < 0.001), TGFβRII (P < 0.0001), c-Myc (P < 0.001), and cyclin D1 (P < 0.001) in comparison to small adenomas, and tubulovillous/villous adenomas also were more likely to have similar higher expression levels in comparison to tubular adenomas. Adenoma location is not a major determinant of the expression of these biomarkers outside of other pathological features. This study suggests similarly important roles of Wnt/β-catenin and TGF-β pathways in carcinogenesis in both the proximal and distal colorectum. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Clonal origins and parallel evolution of regionally synchronous colorectal adenoma and carcinoma.

Project description:Although the colorectal adenoma-to-carcinoma sequence represents a classical cancer progression model, the evolution of the mutational landscape underlying this model is not fully understood. In this study, we analyzed eight synchronous pairs of colorectal high-grade adenomas and carcinomas, four microsatellite-unstable (MSU) and four-stable (MSS) pairs, using whole-exome sequencing. In the MSU adenoma-carcinoma pairs, we observed no subclonal mutations in adenomas that became fixed in paired carcinomas, suggesting a 'parallel' evolution of synchronous adenoma-to-carcinoma, rather than a 'stepwise' evolution. The abundance of indel (in MSU and MSS pairs) and microsatellite instability (in MSU pairs) was noted in the later adenoma- or carcinoma-specific mutations, indicating that the mutational processes and functional constraints operative in early and late colorectal carcinogenesis are different. All MSU cases exhibited clonal, truncating mutations in ACVR2A, TGFBR2, and DNA mismatch repair genes, but none were present in APC or KRAS. In three MSS pairs, both APC and KRAS mutations were identified as both early and clonal events, often accompanying clonal copy number changes. An MSS case uniquely exhibited clonal ERBB2 amplification, followed by APC and TP53 mutations as carcinoma-specific events. Along with the previously unrecognized clonal origins of synchronous colorectal adenoma-carcinoma pairs, our study revealed that the preferred sequence of mutational events during colorectal carcinogenesis can be context-dependent.

Genomic instability and oncogene amplifications in colorectal adenomas predict recurrence and synchronous carcinoma.

Project description:Individual colorectal adenomas have different propensities to progress to invasive disease. In this study, we explored whether these differences could be explained by gene copy number alterations. We evaluated 18 adenomas of patients without synchronous or subsequent carcinoma (6.5 years follow-up), 23 adenomas of carcinoma patients, and 6 related carcinomas. All samples were measured for their DNA ploidy status. Centromere probes for chromosomes 17 and 18, as well as gene-specific probes for SMAD7, EGFR, NCOA3, TP53, MYC, and RAB20 were assessed by multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization. An increased genomic instability index of CEP17, SMAD7, and EGFR, as well as TP53 deletions and MYC amplifications defined adenomas of patients with synchronous carcinoma (P<0.05). Diploid NCOA3 signal counts were associated with longer adenoma recurrence-free surveillance (P=0.042). In addition, NCOA3, MYC, EGFR, and RAB20 amplifications, as well as TP53 deletions correlated with increased DNA stem line values and/or aneuploidy in adenomas (P<0.05). Furthermore, aberrations of NCOA3, MYC, and RAB20 were associated with histopathologically defined high-risk adenomas (P<0.05). RAB20 amplifications were also correlated with high-grade dysplastic adenomas (P=0.002). We conclude that genomic instability in colorectal adenomas is reflected by EGFR, MYC, NCOA3, and RAB20 amplifications that do correlate with histomorphological features and are indicative for adenoma recurrence and the presence of synchronous carcinomas.

Genetic analysis of multiple synchronous lesions of the colon adenoma-carcinoma sequence.

Project description:The colorectal adenoma-carcinoma sequence represents a well-known paradigm for the sequential development of cancer driven by the accumulation of genomic defects. Although the colorectal adenoma-carcinoma sequence is well investigated, studies about tumours of different dignity co-existent in the same patient are seldom. In order to address the distribution of genetic alterations in different lesions of the same patient, we coincidently investigated carcinomas, adenomas and aberrant crypt foci in patients with sporadic colon cancer. By utilizing polymerase chain reaction, single-strand conformation polymorphism, heteroduplex-analysis, restriction fragment length polymorphism, protein truncation test and sequencing techniques we looked for mutations and microsatellite instability of APC, H-ras, K-ras, p53, DCC and the DNA repair genes hMLH1/hMSH2. In accordance with the suggested adenoma-carcinoma sequence of the colon, four patients reflected the progressive accumulation of genetic defects in synchronously appearing tumours during carcinogenesis. However, two patients with non-hereditary malignomas presented different genetic instabilities in different but synchronously appearing tumours suggesting non-clonal growth under almost identical conditions of the environment. Thus, sporadically manifesting multiple lesions of the colon were not necessarily driven by similar genetic mechanisms. Premalignant lesions may transform into malignant tumours starting from different types of genetic instability, which indicates independent and simultaneous tumorigenesis within the same organ.

Germline variants and advanced colorectal adenomas: adenoma prevention with celecoxib trial genome-wide association study.

Project description:PurposeIdentification of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) associated with development of advanced colorectal adenomas.Experimental designDiscovery phase: 1,406 Caucasian patients (139 advanced adenoma cases and 1,267 controls) from the Adenoma Prevention with Celecoxib (APC) trial were included in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify variants associated with postpolypectomy disease recurrence. Genome-wide significance was defined as false discovery rate less than 0.05, unadjusted P = 7.4 × 10(-7). Validation phase: results were further evaluated using 4,175 familial colorectal adenoma cases and 5,036 controls from patients of European ancestry [COloRectal Gene Identification consortium (CORGI), Scotland, Australia, and VQ58].ResultsOur study identified eight SNPs associated with advanced-adenoma risk in the APC trial (rs2837156, rs7278863, rs2837237, rs2837241, rs2837254, rs741864 at 21q22.2, and rs1381392 and rs17651822 at 3p24.1, at P < 10(-7) level with OR > 2). Five variants in strong pairwise linkage disequilibrium (rs7278863, rs2837237, rs741864, rs741864, and rs2837241; r(2) = 0.8-1) are in or near the coding region for the tight junction adhesion protein, IGSF5. An additional variant associated with advanced adenomas, rs1535989 [minor allele frequency, 0.11; OR, 2.09; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.50-2.91], also predicted colorectal cancer development in a validation analysis (P = 0.019) using a series of adenoma cases or colorectal cancer (CORGI study) and 3 sets of colorectal cancer cases and controls (Scotland, VQ58, and Australia; N = 9,211).ConclusionsOur results suggest that common polymorphisms contribute to the risk of developing advanced adenomas and might also contribute to the risk of developing colorectal cancer. The variant at rs1535989 may identify patients whose risk for neoplasia warrants increased colonoscopic surveillance.

Accumulation of Paneth Cells in Early Colorectal Adenomas Is Associated with Beta-Catenin Signaling and Poor Patient Prognosis.

Project description:Previous studies in mice indicated that Paneth cells and c-Kit-positive goblet cells represent the stem cell niche of the small intestine and colon, respectively, partly by supporting Wnt and Notch activation. Whether these cell populations play a similar role in human intestinal cancer remains unexplored. We performed histopathological evaluation and immunohistochemical analysis of early colorectal adenomas and carcinoma adenoma from patients at the Hospital del Mar in Barcelona. We then determined the possible correlation between the different parameters analyzed and with patient outcomes. Paneth cells accumulate in a subset of human colorectal adenomas directly associated with Notch and Wnt/β-catenin activation. Adenoma areas containing Paneth cells display increased vessel density in the lamina propria and higher levels of the stem cell marker EphB2. In an in-house cohort of 200 colorectal adenoma samples, we also observed a significant correlation between the presence of Paneth cells and Wnt activation. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that early adenoma patients carrying Paneth cell-positive tumors display reduced disease-free survival compared with patients with Paneth cell-free lesions. Our results indicate that Paneth cells contribute to the initial steps of cancer progression by providing the stem cell niche to adenoma cells, which could be therapeutically exploited.

Pituitary Adenoma Surgery Survey: Neurosurgical Centers and Pituitary Adenomas.

Project description:ObjectivePituitary adenoma surgery has evolved rapidly in recent decades. This study aims to determine current practice across a wide range of European neurosurgical centers.MethodsA list of eligible departments performing pituitary adenoma surgery was created. The survey consisted of 58 questions. For analysis, the departments were divided into four subgroups: academic/nonacademic, high-volume/low-volume, "mainly endoscopic/mainly microscopic practice," and geographical regions.ResultsData from 254 departments from 34 countries were obtained. In 108 centers (42.5%), <30 pituitary adenomas were operated per year. Twenty (7.9%) centers performed >100 adenoma surgeries per year. Number of neurosurgeons performing endonasal surgeries are as follows: 1 in 24.9% of centers and 2 in 49.8% of centers. All residents assisted endonasal surgeries in 126 centers (49.8%). In 28 centers (21.1%), all residents performed endonasal surgery under supervision during residency. In 141 centers (56.8%), the endoscopic approach was used in >90% of the surgeries. Regular pituitary board (either weekly or once a month) meetings were held in 147 centers (56.3%). Nonfunctioning adenomas represent >70% of pituitary caseload in 149 centers (58.7%).ConclusionsIn our survey, most centers perform less than 100 surgeries for pituitary adenomas. In most centers, pituitary surgeries are performed by one or two neurosurgeons. Residents have a limited exposure to this type of surgery, and the formal pituitary board is not a standard. Nonfunctioning adenomas make up most of surgically treated adenomas. This study can serve as a benchmark for further analyses of pituitary adenoma centers in Europe.

Frequency of coexistent carcinoma in sessile serrated adenoma/polyps and traditional serrated adenomas removed by endoscopic resection.

Project description:Sessile serrated adenoma/polyps (SSA/Ps) have a different potential than traditional adenomatous polyps for developing into malignant colorectal cancer. However, little is known about the coexistent cancer rate. Here, we evaluate the frequency of carcinoma in serrated polyps removed by endoscopic resection (ER).This was a retrospective single-center cohort study of consecutive patients with colorectal polyps who underwent ER from March 2003 to October 2014. We determined the frequency of serrated polyps among all resected colorectal polyps and analyzed the clinicopathological findings as well as the frequency and characteristics of coexistent carcinoma in the serrated polyps resected by ER based on pathology reports.A total of 21,048 polyps from 15,326 patients were identified, including 15,984 traditional adenomatous polyps (75.9 %), 621 SSA/Ps (3.0 %), 136 traditional serrated adenomas (TSAs) (0.6 %), 1,121 hyperplastic polyps (5.3 %), and 3,186 polyps of other types (15.1 %). The clinical and endoscopic findings of SSA/Ps revealed a male predominance (68.6 %), with 61.7 % of the polyps located in the proximal colon. Males accounted for 77.2 % of all patients with TSAs, and 77.2 % of these polyps were located in the distal colon. The mean sizes of the SSA/Ps and TSAs were 8.8 and 10.7 mm, respectively. Among the SSA/Ps, 8 (1.3 %) cases had coexistent carcinoma, and 1 (0.7 %) patient with TSA showed coexistent carcinoma. In the patients with SSA/Ps, female sex and a tumor size ≥ 10 mm were predictive factors for coexistent carcinoma.The frequency of SSA/Ps with carcinoma was lower than that for traditional adenoma. Female sex and tumor size ≥ 10 mm were significant predictive factors for coexistent carcinoma.
