- 2021

- Background: The real-world effectiveness of oxaliplatin in stage III colon cancer has not been determined in a large-scale population. We aimed to assess the real-world impact of adjuvant oxaliplatin treatment on the survival of these patients.Methods: Based on Taiwan cancer registry, we evaluated 17,801 patients with resected stage III colon cancer, including 14,168 patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy and 3,633 not receiving adjuvant chemotherapy as the control group between 2004 and 2014. We used the controlled interrupted time-series analysis to assess the three-year disease-free survival and five-year overall survival rates before (2004–2008) and after (2009–2014) the addition of oxaliplatin.Results: The introduction of oxaliplatin was associated with no significant improvement in the slopes (per half-year) of the three-year disease-free survival rate (0.2%, 95% CI: −1.7∼2.2%) and five-year overall survival rate (0.6%, 95% CI: −1.8∼3%). The patients receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy also showed no significant increase in the slopes (per half-year) of the three-year disease-free survival rate (0.6%, 95% CI: −1.4∼2.6%) and five-year overall survival rate (1%, 95% CI: −1.5∼3.5%). The nonsignificant results were consistent across subgroup analyses of age (<70 vs. ≥70 years), recurrence risk (T1-3 or N1 vs. T4 or N2), and cycle of oxaliplatin use (≤6 vs. >6). However, oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy significantly increased the slope (per half-year) of the five-year OS (2%, 95% CI: 0.2∼3.8%) for patients in the high-risk group (T4 or N2). The present results were robust in several sensitivity analyses.Conclusion: Among real-world patients with stage III colon cancer, the introduction of oxaliplatin does not yield a significant improvement in survival. Future work should identify the subpopulation(s) of patients who benefit significantly from the addition of oxaliplatin.

- Cancer is driven by genetic change, and the advent of massively parallel sequencing has enabled systematic documentation of this variation at the whole-genome scale1–3. Here we report the integrative analysis of 2,658 whole-cancer genomes and their matching normal tissues across 38 tumour types from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We describe the generation of the PCAWG resource, facilitated by international data sharing using compute clouds. On average, cancer genomes contained 4–5 driver mutations when combining coding and non-coding genomic elements; however, in around 5% of cases no drivers were identified, suggesting that cancer driver discovery is not yet complete. Chromothripsis, in which many clustered structural variants arise in a single catastrophic event, is frequently an early event in tumour evolution; in acral melanoma, for example, these events precede most somatic point mutations and affect several cancer-associated genes simultaneously. Cancers with abnormal telomere maintenance often originate from tissues with low replicative activity and show several mechanisms of preventing telomere attrition to critical levels. Common and rare germline variants affect patterns of somatic mutation, including point mutations, structural variants and somatic retrotransposition. A collection of papers from the PCAWG Consortium describes non-coding mutations that drive cancer beyond those in the TERT promoter4; identifies new signatures of mutational processes that cause base substitutions, small insertions and deletions and structural variation5,6; analyses timings and patterns of tumour evolution7; describes the diverse transcriptional consequences of somatic mutation on splicing, expression levels, fusion genes and promoter activity8,9; and evaluates a range of more-specialized features of cancer genomes8,10–18.

Protein-metabolite interactomics of carbohydrate metabolism reveal regulation of lactate dehydrogenase
- 2023

- Metabolic networks are interconnected and influence diverse cellular processes. The protein-metabolite interactions that mediate these networks are frequently low affinity and challenging to systematically discover. We developed mass spectrometry integrated with equilibrium dialysis for the discovery of allostery systematically (MIDAS) to identify such interactions. Analysis of 33 enzymes from human carbohydrate metabolism identified 830 protein-metabolite interactions, including known regulators, substrates, and products as well as previously unreported interactions. We functionally validated a subset of interactions, including the isoform-specific inhibition of lactate dehydrogenase by long-chain acyl–coenzyme A. Cell treatment with fatty acids caused a loss of pyruvate-lactate interconversion dependent on lactate dehydrogenase isoform expression. These protein-metabolite interactions may contribute to the dynamic, tissue-specific metabolic flexibility that enables growth and survival in an ever-changing nutrient environment.

HMGB1 released from nociceptors mediates inflammation
- 2021

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Nociceptors are sensory neurons that detect changes in the body’s internal and external milieu. Although occupying a primary role in signaling these changes to the nervous system, nociceptors also initiate neurogenic inflammation by sending antidromic signals back into the tissue. Because HMGB1 is a well-characterized endogenous mediator, which stimulates inflammation and is expressed by neurons, we reasoned HMGB1 release may be an important component of neurogenic inflammation. Here, by combining optogenetics, neuronal-specific ablation, nerve-injury, and inflammatory disease models, with direct assessment of inflammation and neuropathic pain, we show that nociceptor HMGB1 is required for an inflammatory response. These results provide direct evidence that nociceptor-related pain and inflammation can be prevented by targeting HMGB1.
