Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) located in the jejunum or ileum (JI-GIST) are considered worse prognosis compared to those of gastric (G-GIST) location. It has been suggested that this dogma should be revised. The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of jejunoileal GISTs and its prognosis and to compare them with G-GISTs in the era of imatinib. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical histories of all the patients diagnosed with GISTs between January 2000 and November 2016: Clinical and pathological data, as recurrence, metastatic state, disease-free survival (DFS) as well as overall survival (OS) rates of patients were reviewed. RESULTS JI-GIST patients comprise 29 cases (37.7%). Compared to G-GIST, JI-GIST patients had undergone emergency surgery more frequently (37.9% vs. 10.4%, p = 0.007). According to the NIH-Fletcher classification, the low or very-low risk group represents 17.2% of JI-GISTs as opposed to 37.6% of G-GISTs (p < 0.005). When the AFIP-Miettinen system was used the low or very-low group represented 17.2% of JI-GISTs vs. 58.4% in the G-GISTs group (p < 0.001). Both local recurrence (24.1% vs. 12.5%, p < 0.05) and metastatic rate (34.5% vs. 22.9%, p < 0.05) were higher in the JI-GIST group than in G-GIST. 5- and 10-year DFS and 10-year OS rate were lower for JI-GIST (54.5% and 39.6% vs. 77.2% and 60.8%, and 57.9% vs. 65%, respectively, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The observed differences between both groups in DFS and OS rates at long term could be attributed to the effect of imatinib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study is to clarify if a classification based on the time of occurrence of associated malignancies in GIST patients can help in the understanding of the clinical controversies observed in these patients. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all the patients diagnosed with GIST tumors between January 1999 and October 2016. They were divided into GIST patients associated with other tumors (A-GIST) and those not associated (NA-GIST). A-GIST patients were also divided into four types according to the proposed classification. RESULTS Of 104 GIST patients, 32 (30.7%) (A-GIST group) had at least one additional primary malignancy. The most frequent location of the associated malignancy was the GI tract (26%). Compared to NA-GIST, A-GIST were more often asymptomatic with a lower risk of recurrence. The main cause of death in NAGIST was GIST itself, being associated tumors the main cause of death in A-GIST group. No differences were found in DFS and OS between A-GIST and NA-GIST. CONCLUSIONS The use of the proposed classification classifies GIST patients with associated malignancies in different subtypes that differ substantially in terms of incidence, type of neoplasms associated, cause of the association and prognosis.

Abstract
Cancer cells have the ability to migrate from the primary (original) site to other places in the body. The extracellular matrix affects cancer cell migratory capacity and has been correlated with tissue-specific spreading patterns. However, how the matrix orchestrates these behaviors remains unclear. Here, we investigated how both higher collagen concentrations and TGF-β regulate the formation of H1299 cell (a non-small cell lung cancer cell line) spheroids within 3D collagen-based matrices and promote cancer cell invasive capacity. We show that at low collagen concentrations, tumor cells move individually and have moderate invasive capacity, whereas when the collagen concentration is increased, the formation of cell clusters is promoted. In addition, when the concentration of TGF-β in the microenvironment is lower, most of the clusters are aggregates of cancer cells with a spheroid-like morphology and poor migratory capacity. In contrast, higher concentrations of TGF-β induced the formation of clusters with a notably higher invasive capacity, resulting in clear strand-like collective cell migration. Our results show that the concentration of the extracellular matrix is a key regulator of the formation of tumor clusters that affects their development and growth. In addition, chemical factors create a microenvironment that promotes the transformation of idle tumor clusters into very active, invasive tumor structures. These results collectively demonstrate the relevant regulatory role of the mechano-chemical microenvironment in leading the preferential metastasis of tumor cells to specific tissues with high collagen concentrations and TFG-β activity.

Abstract
Cutaneous neoplasia is common in non-human primates. We describe the gross and microscopic features of multicentric cutaneous keratoacanthomas in a free-living marmoset (Callithrix sp.). Immunohistochemistry for human papillomavirus and herpes simplex virus type I and simplex virus type II was negative. Keratoacanthomas should be included in the differential diagnosis for cutaneous masses in non-human primates.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates (BP), especially alendronate and risedronate, are the drugs most commonly used for osteoporosis treatment, being incorporated into the skeleton where they inhibit bone resorption and are thereafter slowly released during bone turnover. However, there are few data on the release of BP in patients who have received treatment with these drugs for osteoporosis. This information is essential for evaluating the possibility of BP cyclic therapy in these patients and for controlling their long-term presence in bone tissue. This study evaluated the urinary excretion of alendronate and risedronate in patients treated with these drugs for osteoporosis and analysed its relationship with bone turnover, time of previous drug exposure and time of treatment discontinuation. We included 43 women (aged 65±9.4 years) previously treated with alendronate (36) or risedronate (7) during a mean of 51±3 and 53±3 months, respectively, who had not been treated with other antiosteoporotic treatment and with a median time of discontinuation of 13.5 and 14 months, respectively. Both BP were detected in 24-hour urine by HPLC. In addition, bone formation (PINP) and resorption (NTx) markers were analysed. Both BP were also determined in a control group of women during treatment. Alendronate was detected in 41% of women previously treated with this drug whereas no patient previously treated with risedronate showed detectable urinary values. All control patients showed detectable values of both BP. In patients with detectable alendronate levels, the time of drug cessation was shorter than in patients with undetectable values (12 [6-19] versus 31 [7-72] months, p<0.001). Alendronate was not detected in any patient 19 months after treatment cessation. Alendronate levels were inversely related to time of treatment discontinuation (r=-0.403, p=0.01) and the latter was directly related to NTx (r=0.394, p=0.02). No relationship was observed with age, length of drug exposure, renal function or weight. In conclusion, contrary to risedronate, which was not detected in patients after cessation of treatment, alendronate was frequently detected in women previously treated with this agent up to 19 months after discontinuation of therapy. The relationship between alendronate levels and both bone resorption and time of treatment cessation further indicates a residual effect of this drug in bone, despite treatment discontinuation.
