Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma is a rare neoplasm that arises from the mesothelium of a serosal cavity and is a rapidly fatal disease with a median survival of 4 to 12 months for untreated cases. Recently, we experienced a case with malignant peritoneal mesothelioma who was suspected hepatocelluar carcioma by abdominal CT scan and was confirmed by biopsy including immunohistochemical stain(calretinin) after surgery. We performed tumor excisions and wedge resection of the liver(segment Ⅷ)and inserted Tencoff catheter in abdominal cavity at 25th day of post-operation. We treated with intraperitoneal paclitaxel(25mg/m^(2)/day for 5 days) six courses monthly. She was well tolerable and is still living without any evidence of recurrence for 14th month of post-operation.

Won, A Jin,Kim, Siwon,Kim, Yoon Gyoon,Kim, Kyu-Bong,Choi, Wahn Soo,Kacew, Sam,Kim, Kyeong Seok,Jung, Jee H.,Lee, Byung Mu,Kim, Suhkmann,Kim, Hyung Sik The Royal Society of Chemistry 2016 Molecular bioSystems Vol.12 No.1

<P>The discovery of new biomarkers for early detection of drug-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is clinically important. In this study, sensitive metabolomic biomarkers identified in the urine of rats were used to detect cisplatin-induced AKI. Cisplatin (10 mg kg(-1), i.p.) was administered to Sprague-Dawley rats, which were subsequently euthanized after 1, 3 or 5 days. In cisplatin-treated rats, mild histopathological alterations were noted at day 1, and these changes were severe at days 3 and 5. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) levels were significantly increased at days 3 and 5. The levels of new urinary protein-based biomarkers, including kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), glutathione S-transferase-alpha (GST-alpha), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), calbindin, clusterin, neutrophil, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and osteopontin, were significantly elevated at days 3 and 5. Among urinary metabolites, trigonelline and 3-indoxylsulfate (3-IS) levels were significantly decreased in urine collected from cisplatin-treated rats prior to histological kidney damage. However, carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), a hepatotoxicant, did not affect these urinary biomarkers. Trigonelline is closely associated with GSH depletion and results in insufficient antioxidant capacity against cisplatin-induced AKI. The predominant cisplatin-induced AKI marker appeared to be reduced in urinary 3-IS levels. Because 3-IS is predominantly excreted via active secretion in proximal tubules, a decrease is indicative of tubular damage. Further, urinary excretion of 3-IS levels was markedly reduced in patients with AKI compared to normal subjects. The area under the curve receiver operating characteristics (AUC-ROC) for 3-IS was higher than for SCr, BUN, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), total protein, and glucose. Therefore, low urinary or high serum 3-IS levels may be more useful for early detection of AKI than conventional biomarkers.</P>

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Chronic exposure to cadmium (Cd) causes remarkable damage to the kidneys, a target organ of accumulated Cd after oral administration. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of curcumin against Cd-induced nephrotoxicity. Sprague–Dawley male rats were divided into the following four treatment groups: control, curcumin (50 mg/kg, oral), CdCl<SUB>2</SUB>, (25 mg/kg, oral), and pre-treatment with curcumin (50 mg/kg) 1 h prior to the administration of CdCl<SUB>2</SUB> (25 mg/kg, oral) for 7 days. At 24 h after the final treatment, the animals were killed, and the biomarkers associated with nephrotoxicity were measured. Our data indicated that blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (sCr) levels were significantly reduced by curcumin pre-treatment in CdCl<SUB>2</SUB>-treated animals. Histopathological studies showed hydropic swelling and hypertrophy of the proximal tubular cells in the renal cortex after Cd treatment. Pretreatment with curcumin ameliorated the histological alterations induced by Cd. The urinary excretion of kidney injury molecule-1 (Kim-1), osteopontin (OPN), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and netrin-1 significantly reduced by curcumin treatment compared to that in the CdCl<SUB>2</SUB>-treated group. The administration of curcumin provided a significant protective effect against Cd-induced nephrotoxicity.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Curcumin protects against cadmium-induced renal injury. </LI> <LI> Curcumin reduces urinary excretion of AKI biomarkers. </LI> <LI> Curcumin protects against cadmium-induced apoptosis in the kidney. </LI> </UL> </P>

연구목적 : 손상된 유전자의 회복은 암의 발생 및 예방에 중요한 역할을 한다. 잘못된 염기의 제거 및 회복에 중요한 역할을 하는 OGGI 유전자의 다형성이 방광암에 어떠한 작용을 하는지를 환자-대조군 연구를 통해서 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법: 방광암 환자 168명과 건강인 672명을 대조군으로 하여 genomic DNA를 이용하여 SSCP (single-stranded conformational polymorphism), direct DNA sequencing 및 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) 방법을 통해 환자 및 대조군사이의 OGGI 유전자의 다형성을 조사하였다. 결과: 건강 한국인에서 OGGI 유전자의 유전형을 조사한 결과 econ 6의 Pro324Pro 부위(lb type)와 exon 7의 Ser326Cys 부위 (la type)에 유전자의 다형성이 있음을 발견하였다. Codon 324는 silent polymorphic site였으나 codon 326은 C→G로 nucleotide가 바뀌어 amino acid가 serine→cysteine으로 바뀌는 polymorphic site였다. 대조군에서 codon 326은 Ser326Ser 형이 127례 (18.9%), Ser326Cys 형이 363례 (54.0%) 및 Cys326Cys 형이 182례 (27.1%)이었으며, 168명의 방광암 환자군에서는 Ser326Ser 형이 44례 (26.2%), Ser326Cys 형이 87례 (51.8%)이고 0ys3260ys 형이 37례 (22.0%) 이었다(p=0.034) 즉 Cys326Cys 형 및 Ser326cys 형에 비하여 Ser326Ser 형에서 방광암이 생길 확율이 1.52배 (95% CI=0.439-0.969) 높았다 특히 40세 미만의 남자의 경우 Ser326Ser 형에서 방광암 발생확률이 다른 유전형에 비하여 6.1배 높았다. 결론: OGGI 유전자의 유전형은 서구인과 판이하게 달랐으며 방광암에서는 이 유전자의 변이가 빈번할 뿐아니라 codon 326의 Ser326Ser 형에서는 다른 유전자형에 비하여 방광암이 발생할 확률이 1.5배 이상 높았다. 특히 한국인 40세 미만의 남자에서는 방광암 발생확률이 6배이상 높았다. 본 연구결과 OGGI codon 326의 유전적 다형성은 방광암의 종양화 과정과 관계가 있을 것으로 여겨지며 특히 40세 미만의 한국 남자의 경우는 더욱 밀접한 관계가 있을 것으로 사료된다. Purpose: A repair of damaged DNA has been shown to be involved in the susceptibility to cancer development and prevention. Therefore, it is worth investigating genetic polymorphisms of the OGGl gene associated with the gene repair mechanism. In this study, we examined a possible association of genetic ploymorphisms in OGGl with the risk of bladder tumor. Materials and Methods: Hospital based, case-control investigation was carried out in 168 primary bladder tumor patients and 672 control subjects. We performed the SSCP, PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and direct DNA sequencing to characterize the genetic polymorphism of OGGI in both cases and oontrols. Results: We found two polymorphic sites in OGGl. A Ser/Cys polymorphism at codon 326 (la type) in exon 7 was associated with an exchange of amino acid. Another polymorphic site at codon 324 (1b type) in econ 6 was silent. The association between codon 326 Polymorphism and the risk of the bladder tumor was examined by a age-sex adjusted analysis. We found that the distribution of OGGl Ser326Cys genotypes of controls(Ser/Ser, 18.9% ; Ser/Cys, 54.0% ; Cys/Cys, 27.1%) was significantly different from that of bladder tumor patients (36.2%, 51.8% and 22.0%, respectively) (p = 0.034, adjusted OR = 0.652, 95% Cl = 0.44 - 0.97). Especially, bladder tumor risk in Korean male under 40 years old was approximately 6 times higher than over 40 years old males. Conclusion : Our data suggested that Ser326cys polymorphism at codon 326 of OGGl male below 40 years old in Korea significantly increased the risk of tumorigenesis in the urinary bladder (p = 0.015, adjusted OR = 0.165, 95% CI = 0.04 - 0.75) Our results suggest that the OGGl Ser326Cys Polymorphism might play a role in the tumorigenesis of the bladder.

Coronary stent implacement is known as an effective treatment in the intimal dissection after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and the prevention of restenosis. However, In-stent restenosis still remains a major concern in clinical stenting. The stents were placed in 103 patients from July 1996 to March 1999 and performed follow-up coronary angiograms in 59(57.3%) patients. To identify the clinical, angiographic and procedurerelated variables 'which predict late restenosis within the stented artery, 59 patients(58.3±9.9, M:F= 41:18) were studied. The clinical characteristics of the patients were stable angina in 23(39.0%), unstable angina in 14(23.7%), acute myocardial infarction in 21(35.6%) and old myocardial infarction in 1(1.7%). Coronary stenting was performed in 1 patient(1.7%) for primary lesion, 50 patients(84.7%) for suboptimal results after PTCA, 6 patients(10.2%) for bail-out procedure, and 2 patients(3.4%) for restenotic lesions. All patients were treated with aspirin and ticlopidinc. The follow-up angiograms were obtained at 7±4 months. The overall in-stent restenosis rate was 27.1%. The coronary angiographic findings were 32 single vessel(54.2%), 19 two vessel(32.2%) and 8 three vessel disease(13.6%). The angiographic morphological characteristics were type A in 33(55.9%), type B in 14(23.7%), type C in 12(20. 3%) cases. Variables of 16 patients with restenosis were compared with those of 43 patients without restenosis. Previously known predictors for in-stent restenosis were multiple stenting, stenting for restenotic lesions, residual stenosis after stenting, stenting for total occlusion lesions, reference diameter, balloon to vessel ratio, acute gain and minimal luminal diameter after procedure, design and characteristics of stents, ostial lesion of aorta, high pressure method for stenting, lesion length, diabetes mellitus, size of artheroma, saphenous vein grafts, ulcerlating lesions and calcified lesions. In this study, Reference diameter before stenting(2.43±0.54mm vs. 2.88±0.65mm, p=0.016) and balloon-to-artery ratio(1.28±0.26 vs. 1.11±0.18, p=0.006) were predictors for in-stent restenosis. 1) The overall in-stent restenosis rate was 27.1%. 2) In the analysis of predictors for in-stent restenosis, there was no significant differences in clinical, angiographic factors between group with restenosis and without restenosis. But, Only reference diameter before stenting and balloon-toartery ratio were predictors of late in-stent restenosis. In conclusion, stenting is effective revascularisation method for selected patients with ischemic heart disease, and to minimize in-stent restenosis rate, stent implanting is achieved in a large vessel on the basis of an artery-to-stnet ration of 1:1, if possible.
