| 1 | Epidermal growth factor receptor and K-Ras in non-small cell lung cancer-molecular pathways involved and targeted therapies显示文摘Lung cancer is currently the leading cause of cancer death in Western nations.Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)represents 80%of all lung cancers,and adenocarcinoma is the predominant histological type.Despite the intensive research carried out on this field and therapeutic advances,the overall prognosis of these patients remains unsatisfactory,with a 5-year overall survival rate of less than 15%.Nowadays,pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics represent the key to successful treatment.Recent studies suggest the existence of two distinct molecular pathways in the carcinogenesis of lung adenocarcinoma:one associated with smoking and activation of the K-Ras oncogene and the other not associated with smoking and activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR).The K-ras mutation is mainly responsible for primary resistance to new molecules which inhibit tyrosine kinase EGFR(erlotinib and gefitinib)and most of the EGFR mutations are responsible for increased tumor sensitivity to these drugs.This article aims to conduct a systematic review of the literature regarding the molecular pathways involving the EGFR,K-Ras and EGFR targeted therapies in NSCLC tumor behavior. | Ramon Andrade de Mello Dania Sofia Marques Rui Medeiros António MF Araújo | 2011 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2011，2，11： | 16 |
| 2 | -765G > C COX-2 polymorphism may be a susceptibility marker for gastric adenocarcinoma in patients with atrophy or intestinal metaplasia显示文摘AIM: To investigate the relationship between the -765G > C COX-2 polymorphism and the development of different gastric lesions: atrophy or intestinal metaplasia and gastric adenocarcinoma. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed involving 320 Portuguese individuals (210 without evidence of neoplastic disease, 73 patients with gastric adenocarcinomas and 37 with atrophy or intestinal metaplasia) using a PCR-RFLP method. RESULTS: -765C allele was overrepresented in the patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (51%) when compared either with the control group (38%) or patients with atrophy or intestinal metaplasia (27%). Callele was found to be very common in our population (0.22), and a multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed nearly 3-fold increased risk for the progression to gastric adenocarcinoma in patients with atrophy or intestinal metaplasia carrying the -765C allele (OR = 2.67, 95% CI = 1.03-6.93; P = 0.04).considered as another susceptibility marker for gastric adenocarcinoma development in patients with atrophy or intestinal metaplasia. | Carina Pereira Hugo Sousa Paula Ferreira Maria Fragoso Luís Moreira-Dias Carlos Lopes Rui Medeiros Mário Dinis-Ribeiro | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006，12，34： | 16 |
| 3 | Isolation of bacteria from fermented food and grass carp intestine and their efficiencies in improving nutrient value of soybean meal in solid state fermentation显示文摘Background: Soybean meal is an excellent and cost-effective protein source; however, its usage is limited in the piglet due to the presence of anti-nutritional factors and the antigens glycinin and β-conglycinin. The objective of the current study was to screen and select for bacteria that can be efficiently adopted to ferment soybean meal in order to solve this problem.Results: Bacteria were isolated from fermented soy foods and the grass carp intestine, and strains selected for high protease, cellulase and amylase activities. The isolated bacteria were characterized as Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis and Bacilus amyloliquefacien, respectively. Fermentation with food-derived Isolate-2 and fish-derived F-9 increased crude protein content by 5.32% and 8.27%, respectively; improved the amino acid profile by increasing certain essential amino acids, broke down larger soy protein to 35 k Da and under, eliminated antigenicity against glycinin and β-conglycinin, and removed raffinose and stachyose in the soybean meal following a 24-h fermentation.Conclusions: Our results suggest these two B. amyloliquefaciens bacteria can efficiently solid state ferment soybean meal and ultimately produce a more utilizable food source for growing healthy piglets. | Samantha Medeiros Jingjing Xie Paul W.Dyce Hugh Y.Cai Kees De Lange Hongfu Zhang Julang Li | 2018 | Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology2018，9，3： | 12 |
| 4 | IL-6/IL-6R as a potential key signaling pathway in prostate cancer development显示文摘Interleukin-6(IL-6)is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in prostate regulation and in prostate cancer(PC)development/progression.IL-6 acts as a paracrine and autocrine growth stimulator in benign and tumor prostate cells.The levels of IL-6 and respective receptors are increased during prostate carcinogenesis and tumor progression.Several studies reported that increased serum and plasma IL-6 and soluble interleukin-6 receptor levels are associated with aggressiveness of the disease and are associated with a poor prognosis in PC patients.In PC treatment,patients diagnosed with advanced stages are frequently submitted to hormonal castration,although most patients will eventually fail this therapy and die from recurrent castration-resistant prostate cancer(CRPC).Therefore,it is important to understand the mechanisms involved in CRPC.Several pathways have been proposed to be involved in CRPC development,and their understanding will improve the way to more effective therapies.In fact,the prostate is known to be dependent,not exclusively,on androgens,but also on growth factors and cytokines.The signaling pathway mediated by IL-6 may be an alternative pathway in the CRPC phenotype acquisition and cancer progression,under androgen deprivation conditions.The principal goal of this review is to evaluate the role of IL-6 pathway signaling in human PC development and progression and discuss the interaction of this pathway with the androgen recepto pathway.Furthermore,we intend to evaluate the inclusion of IL-6 and its receptor levels as a putative new class of tumor biomarkers.The IL-6/IL-6R signaling pathway may be included as a putative molecular marker for aggressiveness in PC and it may be able to maintain tumor growth through the AR pathway under androgen-deprivation conditions.The importance of the IL-6/IL-6R pathway in regulation of PC cells makes it a good candidate for targeted therapy. | Andreia Azevedo Virginia Cunha Ana Luisa Teixeira Rui Medeiros | 2011 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2011，2，12： | 12 |
| 5 | Clinical and pathological characterization of epstein-barr virus-associated gastric carcinomas in portugal显示文摘AIM To determine the prevalence of epstein-barr virus(eb V)-associated gastric carcinomas in the North Region of Portugal and to study its clinicopathological characteristics. METHODS We have performed a retrospective study including a total of 179 consecutive patients with gastric cancer(GC) submitted to gastrectomy during 2011 at the Portuguese Oncology Institute of Porto. Clinical and pathological data was collected from individual clinical records and inserted on a database with unique codification. Tumour tissues were collected from the institutional tumour bank. eb V was detected by in situ hybridization for the detection of eb V-encoded small RNAs(ebe Rs) and eb V latent proteins(LMP1 and LMP2 A) were detected by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS The analysis showed that eb V-associated gastric carcinomas(eb Va GC) represents 8.4%(15/179) of all GC cases, with a significant differential distribution among histological types(P < 0.001): 100%(3/3) of medullary carcinomas, 100%(1/1) of adenosquamous carcinoma, 8.7%(8/92) of tubular adenocarcinomas, 8.0%(2/25) of mixed carcinomas and 2%(1/51) in poorly cohesive carcinomas. The analysis revealed a higher predominance of eb Va GC in the upper third and middle(cardia, fundus and body) of the stomach(P = 0.041), a significant lower number of regional lymph nodes invasion(P = 0.025) and a tendency for better prognosis(P = 0.222). eb V latent protein expression revealed that all eb Va GC cases were LMP1-negative, nevertheless 6 cases(40%) expressed LPM2 A, which reveals that these cases show a distinct eb V-Latency profile(latency II-like).CONCLUSION eb Va GC represents 8.4% of all GC in the North Region of Portugal. The eb V-infected patients have specific clinic-pathological features that should be further explored to develop new strategies of management and treatment. | Joana Ribeiro Andreia Oliveira Mariana Malta Claudia Oliveira Fernanda Silva Ana Galaghar Luís Pedro Afonso Maria Cassiano Neves Rui Medeiros Pedro Pimentel-Nunes Hugo Sousa | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017，23，40： | 9 |
| 6 | Environmental assessment and nano-mineralogical characterization of coal,overburden and sediment from Indian coal mining acid drainage显示文摘The deterioration of environmental conditions is the major contributory factor to poor health and quality of life that hinders sustainable development in any region.Coal mining is one of the major industries that contribute to the economy of a country but it also impacts the environment.The chemical parameters of the coal,overburden,soil and sediments along with the coal mine drainage(CMD)were investigated in order to understand the overall environmental impact from high sulphur coal mining at northeastern coalfield(India).It was found that the total sulphur content of the coal is noticeably high compared to the overburden(OB)and soil.The volatile matter of the coal is sufficiently high against the high ash content of the soil and overburden.The water samples have a High Electrical Conductivity(EC)and high Total Dissolve Solid(TDS).Lower values of pH,indicate the dissolution of minerals present in the coal as well as other minerals in the mine rejects/overburden.The chemical and nano-mineralogical composition of coal,soil and overburden samples was studied using a High Resolution-Transmission Electron Microscopy(HR-TEM),Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy(EDS),Selected-Area Diffraction(SAED),Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy(FE-SEM)/EDS,X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FTIR),Raman and Ion-Chromatographic analysis,and Mossbauer spectroscopy.From different geochemical analysis it has been found that the mine water sample from Ledo colliery has the lowest pH value of 3.30,Tirap colliery samples have the highest electrical conductivity value of5.40 ms cm^(-1)Both Ledo and Tirap coals have total sulphur contents within the range 3-3.50%.The coal mine water from Tirap colliery(TW-15 B)has high values of Mg^(2+)(450 ppm),and Br^-(227.17 ppm).XRD analysis revealed the presence of minerals including quartz and hematite in the coals.Mineral analysis of coal mine overburden(OB)indicates the presence both of pyrite and marcasite which was also confirmed in XRD and Mossbauer spectral analysis.The presented data of the minerals and ultra/nano-particles present shows their ability to control the mobility of hazardous elements,suggesting possible use in environmental management technology,including restoration of the delicate Indian coal mine areas. | Madhulika Dutta Jyotilima Saikia Silvio R.Taffarel Frans B.Waanders Diego de Medeiros Cesar M.N.L.Cutruneo Luis F.O.Silva Binoy K.Saikia | 2017 | Geoscience Frontiers2017，8，6： | 8 |
| 7 | Role of Helicobacter pylori in gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas显示文摘Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue(MALT)lymphoma is an indolent extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma,originating in acquired MALT that is induced in mucosal barriers as part of a normal adaptive immune response to a chronic immunoinflammatory stimulus,most notably chronic infection by Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori).This antigenic stimulation initially leads to lymphoid hyperplasia;the acquisition of additional genetic aberrations culminates in the activation of intracellular survival pathways,with disease progression due to proliferation and resistance to apoptosis,and the emergence of a malignant clone.There are descriptions of MALT lymphomas affecting practically every organ and system,with a marked geographic variability partially attributable to the epidemiology of the underlying risk factors;nevertheless,the digestive system(and predominantly the stomach)is the most frequently involved location,reflecting the gastrointestinal tract’s unique characteristics of contact with foreign antigens,high mucosal permeability,large extension and intrinsic lymphoid system.While early-stage gastric MALT lymphoma can frequently regress after the therapeutic reversal of the chronic immune stimulus through antibiotic eradication of H.pylori infection,the presence of immortalizing genetic abnormalities,of advanced disease or of eradication-refractoriness requires a more aggressive approach which is,presently,not consensual.The fact that MALT lymphomas are rare neoplasms,with a worldwide incidence of 1-1.5 cases per105population,per year,limits the ease of accrual of representative series of patients for robust clinical trials that could sustain informed evidence-based therapeutic decisions to optimize the quality of patient care. | Marta-Isabel Pereira José Augusto Medeiros | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，3： | 8 |
| 8 | Liver transplantation and alcoholic liver disease:History,controversies,and considerations显示文摘Alcohol consumption accounts for 3.8% of annual global mortality worldwide, and the majority of these deaths are due to alcoholic liver disease(ALD), mainly alcoholic cirrhosis. ALD is one of the most common indications for liver transplantation(LT). However, it remains a complicated topic on both medical and ethical grounds, as it is seen by many as a 'self-inflicted disease'. One of the strongest ethical arguments against LT for ALD is the probability of relapse. However, ALD remains a common indication for LT worldwide. For a patient to be placed on an LT waiting list, 6 mo of abstinence must have been achieved for most LT centers. However, this '6-mo rule' is an arbitrary threshold and has never been shown to affect survival, sobriety, or other outcomes. Recent studies have shown similar survival rates among individuals who undergo LT for ALD and those who undergo LT for other chronic causes of end-stage liver disease. There are specific factors that should be addressed when evaluating LT patients with ALD because these patients commonly have a high prevalence of multisystem alcohol-related changes. Risk factors for relapse include the presence of anxiety or depressive disorders, short pre-LT duration of sobriety, and lack of social support. Identification of risk factors and strengthening of the social support system may decrease relapse among these patients. Family counseling for LT candidates is highly encouraged to prevent alcohol consumption relapse. Relapse has been associated with unique histopathological changes, graft damage, graft loss, and even decreased survival in some studies. Research has demonstrated the importance of a multidisciplinary evaluation of LT candidates. Complete abstinence should be attempted to overcome addiction issues and to allow spontaneous liver recovery. Abstinence is the cornerstone of ALD therapy. Psychotherapies, including 12-step facilitation therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and motivational enhancement therapy, help support abstinence. Nutritional therapy helps to reverse muscle wasting, weight loss, vitamin deficiencies, and trace element deficiencies associated with ALD. For muscular recovery, supervised physical activity has been shown to lead to a gain in muscle mass and improvement of functional activity. Early LT for acute alcoholic hepatitis has been the subject of recent clinical studies, with encouraging results in highly selected patients. The survival rates after LT for ALD are comparable to those of patients who underwent LT for other indications. Patients that undergo LT for ALD and survive over 5 years have a higher risk of cardiorespiratory disease, cerebrovascular events, and de novo malignancy. | Claudio Augusto Marroni Alfeu de Medeiros Fleck Jr Sabrina Alves Fernandes Lucas Homercher Galant Marcos Mucenic Mario Henrique de Mattos Meine Guilherme Mariante-Neto Ajacio Bandeira de Mello Brandao | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018，24，26： | 7 |

| 12 | Epstein-Barr virus is associated with gastric carcinoma: The question is what is the significance?显示文摘AIM: To examine the possible role of the Epstein- Barr Virus (EBV) in the development of gastric adenocarcinoma (GC). It is unclear whether EBV is involved in GC development or is a consequence of gastric inflammation secondary to immunosuppressive treatments. METHODS: A systematic review was carried out of all published observational studies on the temporal association between EBV and GC, with a view to determine a causal relationship. RESULTS: The present study showed that the worldwide crude prevalence of EBV in gastric adenocarcinoma was 8.29%. The prevalence varied from 7.08% for intestinal type and 9.82% for diffuse type of GC. It was observed that Western and Central Asian countries had a significantly higher frequency of EBV positive cases compared to South-Eastern countries. America had the highest EBV-GC prevalence whereas Europe had the lowest. CONCLUSION: The present review has demonstrated a high prevalence of EBV in gastric adenocarcinoma. However, studies designed to assess a temporal relationship and histological association using sensitive techniques should be carried out to establish the role of EBV in GC carcinogenesis. | Hugo Sousa Ana L Pinto-Correia Rui Medeiros Mario Dinis-Ribeiro | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，27： | 4 |
| 13 | Preservation of platelet function in patients with cirrhosis and thrombocytopenia undergoing esophageal variceal ligation显示文摘Background:Thrombocytopenia is a possible risk factor for bleeding after band ligation of esophageal varices.However,elevated von Willebrand factor(VWF)in cirrhosis improves platelet function and could decrease this risk.Our objective was to assess platelet function in patients with cirrhosis undergoing esophageal variceal ligation(EVL).Methods:The assessment consisted of platelet count,antigen and activity of VWF and VWF-cleaving protease ADAMTS-13 activity,and a platelet adhesion and aggregation test simulating vascular flow in vivo(Impact-RR)prior to EVL.Results:Totally 111 patients were divided into three groups according to platelet count:(1)<50×109/L(n=38,34.2%);(2)50×109/L to 100×109/L(n=47,42.3%);and(3)>100×109/L(n=26,23.4%).No statistically significant difference was found in the aggregate size of platelets[group 1:41.0(31.8–67.3)μm 2;group 2:47.0(33.8–71.3)μm 2;and group 3:47.0(34.0–66.0)μm 2;P=0.60]and no significant correlation was found between aggregate size and platelet count(Spearman r=0.07;P=0.47).Surface coverage was 4.1%(2.8%–6.7%),8.5%(4.0%–10.0%),and 9.0%(7.1%–12.0%)(P<0.001)in groups 1,2 and 3,respectively and correlated with platelet count(Spearman r=0.39;P<0.0001).There was no significant difference between groups in VWF or ADAMTS-13.Post-EVL bleeding occurred in six(5.4%)patients(n=2 in group 1,n=1 in group 2,and n=3 in group 3;P=0.32).Patients with bleeding had higher MELD scores[15.0(11.3–20.3)versus 12.0(10.0–15.0);P=0.025],but no difference was demonstrated for platelet function parameters.Conclusion:Platelet function is preserved even in the presence of thrombocytopenia,including in the patients with post-EVL bleeding. | Evandro de Oliveira Souza Elbio Antonio D’Amico Tania Rubia Flores da Rocha Caroline Marcondes Ferreira Juliana Medeiros Batista Luiz Augusto CarneiroD’Albuquerque Flair Jose Carrilho Alberto Queiroz Farias | 2020 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2020，19，6： | 3 |
| 14 | Association between EGF +61A/G polymorphism and gastric cancer in Caucasians显示文摘AIM: To investigate the association between epidermal growth factor (EGF) +61A/G polymorphism and susceptibility to gastric cancer, through a cross-sectional study. METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction resctriction fragment lenght polymorphism analyses were used to genotype EGF +61 in 207 patients with gastric lesions (162 patients with gastric adenocarcinomas, 45 with atrophy or intestinal metaplasia) and 984 controls. All subjects were Caucasian. RESULTS: Genotype distribution was 23.5% for GG and 76.5% for GA/AA in the control group, 18.4% for GG and 68.6% for GA/AA in the entire group with gastric lesions and 17.9% for GG and 82.1% for GA/AA in the group with gastric adenocarcinoma. No statistically significant associations were found between EGF +61 variants and risk for developing gastric cancer [odds ratios (OR) = 1.41, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 0.90-2.21, P = 0.116]. However, the stratification of individuals by gender revealed that males carrying A alleles (EGF +61A/G or AA) had an increased risk for developing gastric cancer as compared to GG homozygous males (OR = 1.55, 95% CI: 1.05-2.28, P = 0.021). CONCLUSION: In summary, we found that males who were A carriers for EGF +61 had an increased risk for developing gastric cancer. This result may be explained by the suggestion that women secrete less gastric acid than men. | Ana Paula Araújo Bruno M Costa Ana L Pinto-Correia Maria Fragoso Paula Ferreira Mário Dinis-Ribeiro Sandra Costa Rui M Reis Rui Medeiros | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011，17，4： | 3 |

| 18 | Ovarian cancer and DNA repair: DNA ligase IV as a potential key显示文摘Ovarian cancer(OC)is the sixth most common cancer and the seventh cause of death from cancer in women.The etiology and the ovarian carcinogenesis still need clarification although ovulation may be determinant due to its carcinogenic role in ovarian surface epithelium.The link between ovarian carcinogenesis and DNA repair is well established and it became clear that alterations in DNA damage response may affect the risk to develop OC.Polymorphisms are variations in the DNA sequence that exist in normal individuals of a population and are capable to change,among other mechanisms,the balance between DNA damage and cellular response.Consequently,genetic variability of the host has a great role in the development,progression and consequent prognosis of the oncologic patient as well as in treatment response.Standard treatment for OC patients is based on cytoreductive surgery,followed by chemotherapy with a platinum agent and a taxane.Although 80%of the patients respond to the first-line therapy,the development of resistance is common although the mechanisms underlying therapy failure remain mostly unknown.Because of their role in oncology,enzymes involved in the DNA repair pathways,like DNA Ligase IV(LIG4),became attractive study targets.It has been reported that variations in LIG4 activity can lead to a hyper-sensitivity to DNA damage,deregulation of repair and apoptosis mechanisms,affecting the susceptibility to cancer development and therapy response.To overcome resistance mechanisms,several investigations have been made and the strategy to target crucial molecular pathways,such as DNA repair,became one of the important areas in clinical oncology.This review aims to elucidate the link between DNA repair and OC,namely which concerns the role of LIG4 enzyme,and how genetic polymorphisms in LIG4 gene can modulate the activity of the enzyme and affect the ovarian carcinogenesis and treatment response.Moreover,we try to understand how LIG4 inhibition can be a potential contributor for the development of new cancer treatment strategies. | Joana Assis Deolinda Pereira Rui Medeiros | 2013 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2013，4，1： | 2 |
