JC Virus Mediates Invasion and Migration in Colorectal Metastasis
INTRODUCTION JC Virus (JCV), a human polyomavirus, is frequently present in colorectal cancers (CRCs). JCV large T-Ag (T-Ag) expressed in approximately half of all CRC's, however, its functional role in CRC is poorly understood. We hypothesized that JCV T-Ag may mediate metastasis in CRC cells through increased migration and invasion. MATERIAL AND METHODS CRC cell lines (HCT116 and SW837) wer...
متن کاملFacial metastasis from colon cancer.
Facial metastasis from colorectal cancer is very unusual. Herein, we report a 53-year-old man with history of colon cancer who was referred to our clinic because of an asymptomatic nodule on his chin for one year. Histopathologic examination of the nodule revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma, which was similar to that of the primary colon adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent radiotherapy for his...
متن کامل1. Prognostic microRNA classifier for colon cancer metastasis Title: MicroRNA classifier and nomogram for metastasis prediction in colon cancer Running title: Prognostic microRNA classifier for colon cancer metastasis
Background: Colon cancer prognosis and treatment are currently based on a classification system still showing large heterogeneity in clinical outcome, especially in TNM-stages II-III. Prognostic biomarkers for metastasis risk are warranted as development of distant recurrent disease mainly accounts for the high lethality rates of colon cancer. MicroRNAs have been proposed as potential biomarker...
متن کاملsolitary splenic metastasis of colon cancer: a case report
although splenic metastasis is fairly common in disseminated cancer, solitary splenic metastasis in the absence of diffuse dissemination is rare. we report a case of 44 year-old man who developed isolated splenic metastasis of colon cancer. the patient had undergone right sided hemicolectomy for colon cancer in 1988. in 2001, he underwent reoperation because of local recurrence of tumor in the ...
متن کاملPrevalence of JC Virus in Chinese Patients with Colorectal Cancer
BACKGROUND JCV is a DNA polyomavirus very well adapted to humans. Although JCV DNA has been detected in colorectal cancers (CRC), the association between JCV and CRC remains controversial. In China, the presence of JCV infection in CRC patients has not been reported. Here, we investigated JCV infection and viral DNA load in Chinese CRC patients and to determine whether the JCV DNA in peripheral...
