Increased CD44 Expression and MEK Activity Predict Worse Prognosis in Gastric Adenocarcinoma Patients Undergoing Gastrectomy

Jian-xian Lin, Changhwan Yoon, Ping Li, Qian Yu, Sheng-liang Qiu, Chao-hui Zheng, Sam S. Yoon, Chang-Ming Huang

Summary: The study demonstrated that high CD44 and high p-MEK expression are independent negative prognostic factors for gastric adenocarcinoma patients. Targeting the RTK-RAS pathway may improve the prognosis of these patients by inhibiting metastasis and reversing chemotherapy resistance.

Attenuation of ischemia-reperfusion injury by intracoronary chelating agent administration

Donghoon Han, Si-Hyuck Kang, Chang-Hwan Yoon, Tae-Jin Youn, In-Ho Chae

Summary: This study investigated the efficacy of intracoronary administration of EDTA as an adjunctive treatment to reduce ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in a swine model. The results showed that EDTA significantly reduced infarct size, mitochondrial damage, and post-infarct remodeling. Further clinical studies are warranted to evaluate the efficacy of EDTA in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Long-term Clinical Outcomes and Prognostic Factors After Endovascular Treatment in Patients With Chronic Limb Threatening Ischemia

Jung-Joon Cha, Jong-Youn Kim, Hyoeun Kim, Young-Guk Ko, Donghoon Choi, Jae-Hwan Lee, Chang-Hwan Yoon, In-Ho Chae, Cheol Woong Yu, Seung Whan Lee, Sang-Rok Lee, Seung Hyuk Choi, Yoon Seok Koh, Pil-Ki Min

Summary: This study investigated the long-term outcomes of chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) patients who underwent endovascular therapy (EVT). The results showed that age, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), Rutherford category 6, and suboptimal EVT were predictors of major amputation or death, while smoking provided protection. Low body mass index, ESRD, femoropopliteal lesion, Rutherford category 6, and suboptimal EVT were predictors of major adverse limb events (MALE). The highest hazard rates were observed within the first 6 months, followed by a decrease and then a rise after 3-4 years.

Osstem Cardiotec Centum Stent Versus Xience Alpine Stent for De Novo Coronary Artery Lesion: A Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel-Designed, Single Blind Test

Chang-Hwan Yoon, Jihong Jang, Seung Ho Hur, Jun-Hee Lee, Seung Hwan Han, Soon-Jun Hong, Kiyuk Chang, In-Ho Chae

Summary: This study compared the safety and efficacy of the Osstem Cardiotec Centum stent with the Xience stent. The results showed that the Osstem Cardiotec Centum stent was non-inferior to the Xience stent in terms of efficacy and superior in terms of safety. Therefore, the Osstem Cardiotec Centum stent can be safely and effectively used in patients with coronary artery disease.

Tumorigenic mechanisms of estrogen and Helicobacter pylori cytotoxin-associated gene A in estrogen receptor α-positive diffuse-type gastric adenocarcinoma

Seungkyung Kang, Miree Park, Jung Yeon Cho, Su Jin Ahn, Changhwan Yoon, Sang Gyun Kim, Soo-Jeong Cho

Summary: Estrogen and Helicobacter pylori together promote the progression of diffuse-type gastric cancer, particularly in young women. By regulating HOTAIR expression, estrogen and H. pylori enhance epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemness phenotypes. These findings are of great importance for understanding the mechanisms of gastric cancer development and providing preventive and therapeutic strategies.

Summary: This study reviewed patients with CDH1 mutation who underwent PTG surgery and found that PTG can be performed safely at high-volume referral centers with good quality of life, although nutritional sequelae persist in some patients.

Summary: This study compared the long-term clinical outcomes of patients treated with ultrathin-strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stents (BP-SES) and thick-strut biodegradable polymer biolimus-eluting stents (BP-BES). The results showed that the ultrathin-strut BP-SES had significantly lower target lesion failure rates and better outcomes compared to the thick-strut BP-BES.

E-cadherin is a biomarker for ferroptosis sensitivity in diffuse gastric cancer

Alexander M. M. Minikes, Yu Song, Yan Feng, Changhwan Yoon, Sam S. S. Yoon, Xuejun Jiang

Summary: Gastric cancer, particularly the aggressive subtype diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC), is difficult to detect and treat. In this study, it was found that DGC cells with loss-of-function mutation of E-cadherin are more sensitive to ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic, iron-dependent form of cell death. E-cadherin suppresses ferroptosis through activation of the Hippo pathway. Mutations in E-cadherin that reduce its homophilic binding capacity reverse its ability to suppress ferroptosis. Additionally, circulating DGC cells lacking E-cadherin have lower metastatic ability due to their susceptibility to ferroptosis. This study suggests E-cadherin as a biomarker for predicting ferroptosis sensitivity in DGC cells and guiding future therapeutic usage.

KRAS activation in gastric cancer stem-like cells promotes tumor angiogenesis and metastasis

Changhwan Yoon, Jun Lu, Yukyung Jun, Yun-Suhk Suh, Bang-Jin Kim, Jacob E. Till, Jong Hyun Kim, Sara H. Keshavjee, Sandra Ryeom, Sam S. Yoon

Summary: Activation of KRAS in gastric cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) enhances secretion of pro-angiogenic factors, promoting tumor progression and metastasis.

Integrin beta 1 regulates the perineural invasion and radioresistance of oral squamous carcinoma cells by modulating cancer cell stemness

Sung Joon Park, Hyun Jin Min, Changhwan Yoon, Seong Hee Kim, Jin Hyun Kim, Sei Young Lee

Summary: This study evaluated the role of integrin beta 1 (ITGB1) in perineural invasion, radioresistance, and tumor aggressiveness of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). It found that ITGB1 was overexpressed in radioresistant OSCC, especially in cancer stem cell-like cells. Inhibiting ITGB1 significantly reduced adhesion to neuronal cells, resistance to radiation, invasion and migration of radioresistant OSCC, as well as the expression of cancer stem cell markers and spheroid formations. These findings suggest that ITGB1 may be a promising therapeutic target for radioresistant OSCC.

KRAS activation in gastric cancer stem-like cells promotes tumor angiogenesis and metastasis

Changhwan Yoon, Jun Lu, Yukyung Jun, Yun-Suhk Suh, Bang-Jin Kim, Jacob E. Till, Jong Hyun Kim, Sara H. Keshavjee, Sandra Ryeom, Sam S. Yoon

Summary: This study reveals that KRAS activation in gastric cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) enhances the secretion of pro-angiogenic factors and promotes tumor progression and metastasis. Inhibition of KRAS significantly reduces the secretion of factors such as VEGF-A, which are important for tumor angiogenesis. Additionally, high expression of the gastric CSC marker CD44 is associated with expression of both KRAS and VEGF-A, and predicts worse overall survival in gastric cancer patients.

Summary: This study investigated the long-term outcomes of iliac artery endovascular therapy (EVT) and analyzed the results according to TASC classifications. The study found that EVT achieved excellent technical success and 5-year TLR-free survival. However, patients with TASC D lesions had a lower TLR-free survival rate and a higher complication rate compared to other TASC groups.
