Project description:Background and aims: Liver transplantation (LT) is the most radical treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with high rates of long-term survival, but tumor recurrence after LT is an unresolved problem. The aim of our study was to identify predictive markers for tumor recurrence after liver transplantation. Methods: In a retrospective single-center study, we included all patients with LT for HCC in our institution (01/2007-12/2012). Beside demographic data, we analyzed course, bridging therapies, Serum-AFP, time point of tumor recurrence, as well as the correlation of imaging and histopathology of our recipients. Additionally, we performed a microarray analysis to identify different miRNA profiles of patients with and without HCC recurrence after LT. Single assay stem-loop real-time PCR (Q-RT-PCR) was used for validation of the results. Results: During the study period, we performed 92 LT in patients with HCC (22 women, 70 men). Twenty-two (23.9%) patients developed a recurrent HCC after LT. Our subgroup with tumor recurrence after LT, presented with a mean disease-free survival of 10 months (3-55 months) and an overall survival of 25.5 months (4-77 months). Milan criteria, AFP levels and pathologic grading had an influence on the tumor recurrence. Performing miRNA analysis, we could identify significant upregulation of 8 miRNAs and downregulation of another 5 miRNAs in patients with tumor recurrence. Consecutively, array data were successfully validated using Q-RT-PCR. Multivariate Cox regression, ROC analysis and Kaplan-Meier showed that a score consisting of two miRNAs and Milan criteria are an independent predictor for tumor recurrence-free survival. Conclusions: Despite careful selection of patients, an early recurrence of HCC after LT cannot be avoided completely. Reliable prognostic markers related to tumor biology are still missing. Analysis and validation of specific miRNAs combined with radiological parameters might lead to a promising strategy for the prediction of tumor recurrence, but prospective studies have to follow. 8 macrodissected hepatocellular carcinoma (recurrent HCC) and 10 macrodissected hepatocellular carcinoma (non-recurrent HCC).

Project description:Liver transplantation (LT) for Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can be offered to patients beyond Milan criteria. However, there are currently no molecular markers that can be used on HCC explant histology to predict recurrence, which arises in up to 20% of LT recipients . The goal of our study was to identify proteins on HCC explant predictive of recurrence post-transplant, thereby guiding surveillance strategies and identifying patients beyond Milan criteria who would fare well following LT.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in metastatic foci of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unknown. We identified metastasis-related miRNAs in recurrent cases after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Methods: We performed a comprehensive analysis of primary HCC (T), noncancerous liver (N), and resected recurrent (metastatic) HCC (M) using microarray analyses to identify metastasis-related miRNAs in in three patients with post-transplant recurrence. The RNA samples from three cases that underwent resection of recurrences after LDLT were made available for miRNA microarray analysis. The three cases included a 57-year-old man (case 1) with peritoneal recurrence and infected by hepatitis B virus (HBV), and a 48-year-old woman (case 2) and a 51-year-old man (case 3) with lung recurrences and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Microarray analysis was performed for each RNA sample from the (T), (N) in the explanted liver, and (M). A sample containing equal amounts of RNAs from histologically normal livers of three living donors (NL: normal liver) was analyzed as a control.

Project description:Genetic variations play an important role in tumor development and metastasis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of leading cause of cancer-related death. Despite improvements in surveillance and clinical treatment strategies, the prognosis of HCC remains dismal. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 array were used to evaluate the genetic characteristics of tumor DNA in 30 HBV-related HCC patients who were underwent liver transplantation. Recurrence related SNPs were selected and validated. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded HCC tissues

Project description:Liver transplantation (LT) is an optimal treatment for a selected group of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. However, about 10%-25% of LT cases develop post-transplant HCC recurrence, which drastically reduces the long-term survival of HCC patients. This study gives an analysis of the recurrent HCC after LT and the corresponding primary tumor. Results provide insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying post-LT HCC recurrence.
