Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral ossifying fibroma is a nonneoplastic inflammatory hyperplasia that originates in the periodontal ligament or periosteum in response to chronic mechanical irritation. Peripheral ossifying fibroma develops more commonly in young females as a solitary, slow-growing, exophytic nodular mass of the gingiva, no more than 2 cm in diameter. While various synonyms have been used to refer to peripheral ossifying fibroma, very similar names have also been applied to neoplastic diseases that are pathologically distinct from peripheral ossifying fibroma, causing considerable nomenclatural confusion. Herein, we report our experience with an unusual giant peripheral ossifying fibroma with a differential diagnostic challenge in distinguishing it from a malignancy. CASE PRESENTATION A 68-year-old Japanese male was referred to our department with a suspected gingival malignancy presenting with an elastic hard, pedunculated, exophytic mass 60 mm in diameter in the right maxillary gingiva. In addition to computed tomography showing extensive bone destruction in the right maxillary alveolus, positron emission tomography with computed tomography revealed fluorodeoxyglucose hyperaccumulation in the gingival lesion. Although these clinical findings were highly suggestive of malignancy, repeated preoperative biopsies showed no evidence of malignancy. Since even intraoperative frozen histological examination revealed no malignancy, surgical resection was performed in the form of partial maxillectomy for benign disease, followed by thorough curettage of the surrounding granulation tissue and alveolar bone. Histologically, the excised mass consisted primarily of a fibrous component with sparse proliferation of atypical fibroblast-like cells, partly comprising ossification, leading to a final diagnosis of peripheral ossifying fibroma. No relapse was observed at the 10-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The clinical presentation of giant peripheral ossifying fibromas can make the differential diagnosis from malignancy difficult. Proper diagnosis relies on recognition of the characteristic histopathology and identification of the underlying chronic mechanical stimuli, while successful treatment mandates complete excision of the lesion and optimization of oral hygiene. Complicated terminological issues associated with peripheral ossifying fibroma require appropriate interpretation and sufficient awareness of the disease names to avoid diagnostic confusion and provide optimal management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a high-grade adenocarcinoma with a 5-year survival rate of 40%. Although drug therapy has improved patients' prognosis, the impact of brain metastasis (BM) remains poorly understood. We aimed to retrospectively examine the incidence of BM in patients with SDC (n = 464) and develop a tool to estimate their prognoses. METHODS We retrospectively examined 464 patients with SDC enrolled in a multicenter study. We investigated the incidence of BM, overall survival (OS) rates, and factors affecting prognosis in patients with BM. We also developed an SDC-graded prognostic assessment (GPA) score for disease prognostication. RESULTS Sixty-five (14%) patients had BM. The median OS (mOS) was 13.1 months. On univariate and multivariate analyses, factors such as Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status >1, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative status, and locoregional uncontrolled disease were associated with poor OS. SDC-GPA scores according to the prognostic factors were 0, 1, 2, and 3 points, and mOS estimates were 50.5, 16.1, 3.9, and 1.2 months, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The SDC-GPA score emerged as a useful prognostication tool for patients with BM.

Abstract
Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is an aggressive type of salivary gland carcinoma. Recently, immunotherapies targeting immune checkpoints, including PD1, PD-L1, CTLA4, and LAG3, have had a considerable prognostic impact on various malignant tumors. The implementation of such immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies has also been attempted in cases of salivary gland carcinoma. The tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is implicated in tumorigenesis and tumor progression and is closely associated with the response to ICI therapies. However, the TIME in SDC has not been fully explored. We examined the immunohistochemical expression of CD8, FOXP3, PD1, PD-L1, CTLA4, LAG3, and mismatch repair (MMR) proteins, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), and microsatellite instability (MSI) status in 175 cases of SDC. The associations between these TIME-related markers and the clinicopathological factors and prognosis were evaluated. An elevated expression of CD8, FOXP3, PD1, CTLA4, and LAG3 was associated with more aggressive histological features and an advanced N and/or M classification, elevated Ki-67 index, and poor prognosis. Furthermore, cases with a high PD-L1 expression exhibited more aggressive histological features and adverse clinical outcomes than those with a low expression. Alternatively, there was no significant correlation between TILs and clinicopathological factors. No SDC cases with an MSI-high status or MMR deficiency were found. The coexistence of both an immunostimulatory and immunosuppressive TIME in aggressive SDC might play a role in the presence of T-cell exhaustion. The contribution of multiple immune escape pathways, including regulatory T cells and immune checkpoints, may provide a rationale for ICI therapy, including combined PD1/CTLA4 blockade therapy.

Abstract
IntroductionAlthough patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma who develop contralateral neck metastasis (CLNM) have worse survival outcomes than those without CLNM, accurate prediction of occult CLNM in clinically negative contralateral neck (contralateral cN0) remains difficult. This study aimed to identify clinicopathological factors that could reliably predict CLNM in patients with locally advanced (clinical T3 and T4a) tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC).Patients and methodsThe medical data of 32 patients with cT3–4a TSCC who underwent curative surgery between 2010 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The correlation of clinicopathological variables with CLNM was examined using logistic regression analysis. The diagnostic performance of significant variables was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC). Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were assessed using a Cox proportional hazards model.ResultsCLNM was eventually confirmed in 11 patients (34.4%). Multivariate logistic regression showed that midline involvement [odds ratio (OR) = 23.10, P = 0.017] and perineural invasion (PNI, OR = 14.96, P = 0.014) were independent predictors of CLNM. Notably, the prediction model comprising a combination of midline involvement and PNI exhibited superior diagnostic performance with an even higher OR of 80.00 (P < 0.001), accuracy of 90.3%, and AUC of 0.876. The multivariate Cox hazards model revealed independent significance of CLNM as an unfavorable prognostic factor for both OS [hazard ratio (HR) = 5.154, P = 0.031] and DFS (HR = 3.359, P = 0.038), as well as that of PNI for OS (HR = 5.623, P = 0.033).ConclusionOur findings suggest that coexisting midline involvement and PNI of the primary tumor is highly predictive of CLNM development, which independently affects both OS and DFS in patients with locally advanced TSCC. Such reliable prediction enables efficient control of CLNM by optimizing management of the contralateral cN0 neck, which will likely contribute to improved prognosis of those patients without unnecessarily compromising their quality of life.

Abstract
Background The efficacy and safety of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted therapy and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for locally advanced or recurrent or metastatic (LA/RM) salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) have been reported in prospective studies. However, the survival benefit of these therapies to conventional therapy remains controversial, and whether HER2-targeted therapy or ADT should be chosen in HER2- and androgen receptor (AR)-positive SDC patients remains unknown. Methods Overall, 323 LA/RM SDC patients treated at seven institutions between August 1992 and June 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. The primary aim was to analyze the effect of HER2-targeted therapy and ADT on overall survival from the diagnosis of LA/RM disease to death from any cause (OS1). The secondary indicators included the overall response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate (CBR), overall survival from therapy initiation for LA/RM disease (OS2), progression-free survival (PFS), time to second progression (PFS2), duration of response (DoR), and duration of clinical benefit (DoCB) of HER2-targeted therapy or ADT as first-line therapy for HER2-positive/AR-positive SDC. Results Patients treated with HER2-targeted therapy or ADT had longer OS1 than those treated without these therapies (Median OS1: historical control, 21.6 months; HER2-targeted therapy, 50.6 months; ADT, 32.8 months; HER2-targeted therapy followed by ADT, 42.4 months; and ADT followed by HER2-targeted therapy, 45.2 months, p < 0.001). Among HER2-positive/AR-positive SDC patients, although HER2-targeted therapy had better ORR, CBR, and PFS than those of ADT as first-line therapy, we found no significant differences between HER2-targeted therapy and ADT regarding OS2, PFS2, DoR, and DoCB. Conclusion Patients treated with HER2-targeted therapy and ADT showed longer survival in LA/RM SDC. HER2-targeted therapy can be recommended prior to ADT for HER2-positive/AR-positive SDC. It is warranted to establish a biomarker that could predict the efficacy of clinical benefit or better response in ADT.

Abstract
ObjectiveSalivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a highly aggressive and uncommon tumor arising not only de novo but also in pleomorphic adenoma. Androgen receptor (AR)- and HER2-targeted therapy have recently been introduced for SDC as promising treatment options; however, no predictive biomarkers have yet been established. EZH2 and H3K27me3 are closely linked to the development and progression of various cancers, and EZH2 is also expected to be a desirable therapeutic target. We therefore explored the clinicopathological and prognostic implications of EZH2 and H3K27me3 in a large cohort of SDC patients, focusing on their impact on the therapeutic efficacy of AR- or HER2-targeted therapy.Materials and MethodsThe EZH2 and H3K27me3 immunohistochemical expression and EZH2 Y646 gain-of-function mutation status were examined in 226 SDCs, and the relationship with the clinicopathological factors as well as clinical outcomes were evaluated within the three groups depending on the treatment: AR-targeted (combined androgen blockade with leuprorelin acetate and bicalutamide; 89 cases), HER2-targeted (trastuzumab and docetaxel; 42 cases), and conventional therapy (112 cases).ResultsEZH2 and H3K27me3 were variably immunoreactive in most SDCs. A positive correlation was found between the expression of EZH2 and H3K27me3. The EZH2 expression in the SDC component was significantly higher than that in the pre-existing pleomorphic adenoma component. EZH2 Y646 was not identified in any cases. EZH2-high cases more frequently had an advanced clinical stage and aggressive histological features than EZH2-low cases. An EZH2-high status in patients treated with AR-targeted therapy was associated with a significantly shorter progression-free and overall survival as well as a lower objective response rate and clinical benefit rate. In addition, a H3K27me3-high status in patients treated with AR-targeted therapy was related to a shorter overall survival. Conversely, there was no association between the EZH2 and H3K27me3 expression and the clinical outcomes in the conventional or HER2-targeted therapy groups.ConclusionsA high expression of EZH2 and H3K27me3 in SDC might be a predictor of a poor efficacy of AR-targeted therapy. Our data provide new insights into the role of EZH2 and H3K27me3 in therapeutic strategies for SDC.

Abstract
Perioperative complications have been reported to be associated with a lower incidence of cancer-free survival. Perioperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is one of occasionally observed complications in patients with malignancies who undergo noncardiac surgeries. However, the long-term clinical impact of POAF on those with malignancies have remained unknown. This was a prospective, single-center, observational study. Patients who underwent noncardiac surgeries for definitive malignancies between 2014 and 2017 were included. The primary and secondary endpoints were 3-year recurrence of malignancies and cancer death, respectively. The present study included consecutive 752 patients (mean age, 68 ± 11 years; males, 62%), and POAF was observed in 77 patients. The follow-up duration was 1037 (interquartile range, 699-1408) days. The 3-year recurrence of malignancies was observed in 239 (32%) patients (POAF, 32 [42%]; non-POAF, 207 [31%]) and 3-year mortality was 130 patients (17%). Cardiac, noncardiac, and cancer deaths were observed in 4 (0.5%), 126 (17%), and 111 (15%) patients, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that POAF was associated with 3-year recurrence of malignancies (hazard ratio [HR], 1.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.15-2.52). Landmark analysis demonstrated that POAF tended to be correlated with the incidence of 3-year cancer death (HR, 1.79; 95% CI, 0.96-3.31). In conclusion, POAF is associated with the subsequent recurrence of malignancies. The association of arrhythmia with cancer death may be revealed under longer follow-up durations.Clinical Trial Registration: https://upload.umin.ac.jp/cgi-open-bin/ctr_e/ctr_view.cgi?recptno=R000018270 .

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The histological grade of parotid gland carcinoma (PGC) is an important prognostic factor; however, the diagnosis prior to treatment has been challenging to make. This study aimed to investigate whether the pretreatment clinical findings, including hematological inflammatory, nutritional, and immune markers, could predict the histological grade of PGC. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 111 patients with PGC and evaluated the correlation between histological grade and pretreatment clinical findings such as age, sex, tumor staging, facial nerve paralysis, pain or tenderness, adhesion to the surrounding tissues or tumor immobility, and hematological markers. RESULTS Sixty patients (54%) were diagnosed with histological high-grade PGC. Univariate analysis revealed that age, T classification, N classification, TNM stage, facial nerve paralysis, adhesion/immobility, C-reactive protein (CRP), and CRP-to-albumin ratio (CAR) were significant predictors of PGC histological grade. On multivariate analysis, high T classification (T3, 4), high N classification (≥1), and elevated CRP (≥0.22 mg/dL) were independent predictors of high-grade PGC. CONCLUSIONS Pretreatment T classification, N classification, and CRP are significant predictors of the histological grading of PGC. Our results are useful for treatment planning and obtaining appropriate informed consent from the patients before treatment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 2021.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is one of the two isoforms of COX, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. COX-2 is associated with the progression in various types of cancer, and its expression has been associated with a poor prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Furthermore, COX-2 expression has been associated with resistance to anticancer drugs. However, the precise mechanism of COX-2 for chemoresistance in HNSCC has not been fully elucidated. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of COX-2 on cancer stem cell (CSC) property and to reveal its effect on chemoresistance using in vitro and clinicopathological assays in HNSCC cells and tissues. The current study analyzed the immunohistochemical expression levels of COX-2 and clinicopathological factors using matched samples of pretreatment biopsy and surgical specimens from patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma who underwent tumor resection with preoperative chemotherapy, including docetaxel. Additionally, the chemoresistance to docetaxel with or without a COX-2 inhibitor (celecoxib) was examined in HNSCC cell lines by MTS assays. To evaluate the association of COX-2 expression with stemness property, the expression levels of CSC-associated genes after exposure to celecoxib were assessed by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. A sphere formation assay was also performed using ultra-low attachment dishes and microscopic imaging. The immunohistochemical analysis of biopsy specimens revealed a negative association between COX-2 expression in biopsy specimens and the pathological effect of induction chemotherapy in surgical specimens. The cell survival rate under exposure to docetaxel was decreased by the addition of celecoxib. COX-2 inhibition led to downregulation of CSC-associated gene expression and sphere formation. The present findings suggested that COX-2 expression may be associated with chemoresistance through the cancer stemness property, and inhibition of COX-2 may enhance chemo-sensitivity in HNSCC. Therefore, COX-2 may be an attractive target for the treatment of HNSCC.

Abstract
Objective Previous studies have evaluated various markers as prognostic predictors in patients with many types of cancers. However, the influence of such factors on the outcomes of patients with parotid gland carcinoma (PGC) is unknown. This study investigated the roles of alternative markers in the prognoses of patients with PGC. Methods Overall, 101 patients who underwent curative treatment for PGC were retrospectively evaluated, and their 5‐year overall and disease‐free survival rates were calculated. The prognostic values of clinical and pathologic factors were determined. Results The 5‐year overall and disease‐free survival rates were 73.1% and 62.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that a low lymphocyte‐to‐monocyte ratio (LMR), high T classification, high N classification, and perineural invasion were independent predictors of poor prognosis. Conclusions Thus, we identified LMR as an independent prognostic factor for patients with PGC. Patients with low LMRs who are amenable to treatment may require adjuvant treatment to improve their prognoses. Level of Evidence 4 Laryngoscope, 131:E864–E869, 2021

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) has been shown to promote cancer initiation and progression through pleiotropic functions including induction of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) via its predominant product prostaglandin E2 that binds to the cognate receptor EP2. Hence, pharmacological inhibition at the level of EP2 is assumed to be a more selective alternative with less risk to Cox-2 inhibition. However, little is known regarding the anti-cancer effect of an EP2 antagonist on the malignant properties of cancers including hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC). The present study found that both the Cox-2 inhibitor celecoxib and the EP2 antagonist PF-04418948 upregulated CDH-1 expression, restored membranous localization of E-cadherin, and reduced vimentin expression, by downregulating the transcriptional repressors of E-cadherin in BICR6 and FaDu cells. Such Cox-2 or EP2 inhibition-induced EMT reversal led to repressed migration ability in both cells. Immunohistochemical analysis of surgical HPSCC specimens demonstrated an inverse relationship in expression between Cox-2 and E-cadherin both in the context of statistics (P = 0.028) and of reciprocal immunolocalization in situ. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that overexpression of Cox-2 (P < 0.001) and downregulation of E-cadherin (P = 0.016) were both independently predictive of neck metastasis. These results suggest that suppression of cell migration ability via reversing EMT by inhibiting the Cox-2/EP2 signaling may contribute to preventing the development and progression of lymphatic metastasis. Collectively, targeting Cox-2/EP2, especially using EP2 antagonist, can be a promising therapeutic strategy by exerting an anti-metastatic effect via EMT reversal for improving the treatment outcomes of patients with various cancers including HPSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate p16 and COX2 expression in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), and evaluate the prognostic role of COX2 expression under the new TNM classification. MATERIALS AND METHODS Biopsy specimens obtained from 75 patients with OPSCC were stained for p16 and COX2 expression immunohistochemically. The results and clinical records were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS Fifty-nine patients (79%) were positive for p16. COX2 expression was correlated with poor relapse-free survival in patients overall, and in p16-positive patients. Smoking was positively associated with COX2 expression. Moreover, both positive COX2 expression and anterior wall tumor subsite were independently correlated with lymph node metastasis, which was the only independent prognostic factor in p16-positive OPSCC. CONCLUSION The p16-positive rate in this study was comparable with that in the USA and Europe, and higher than that in other Asian countries. COX2 expression might affect the prognosis of p16-positive OPSCC through promoting lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
Background Perioperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is one of the common arrhythmias in the setting of non-cardiac surgeries for malignancy. As POAF may cause subsequent adverse events, it is important to confirm its characteristics and risk factors. Materials and methods The prospective cohort study of surveillance for perioperative atrial fibrillation recurrence (PREDICT AF RECURRENCE) is an ongoing prospective, single-center, observational study that aims to illustrate the clinical impact of POAF in major non-cardiac surgery for malignancy. Patients who planned to undergo non-cardiac surgery for definitive/suspected malignancy were registered. Those with a history of AF and atrial flutter were excluded. Any 30-day complications included acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, bleeding, thrombosis, any infection, and acute kidney injury. The primary endpoint was an incidence of POAF. Results The present study included 799 patients (age, 68 ± 11; male, 62%). Of these, 80 patients (10.0%) developed POAF. Notably, 66 patients (83%) had no symptoms. Any 30-day complications occurred in 180 patients (23%) (with POAF: 34 (43%); without POAF: 146 (20%); p < 0.001). POAF in 17 patients (50%) was preceded by the development of complications. No patient developed cardiogenic shock and/or acute heart failure. The association between 30-day complications and POAF development were analyzed using the multivariate adjusted model (odds ratio: 2.84; 95% confidence interval: 1.74–4.62; p < 0.001). Conclusion Ten percent of patients who underwent non-cardiac surgery for malignancy developed POAF, which was strongly associated with perioperative complications. As a majority were asymptomatic, careful observation using electrocardiography monitoring is important to avoid oversights. Clinical trial registration UMIN ID: UMIN000016146

Abstract
UNLABELLED Denosumab treatment of osteoporotic patients, except those with severe renal insufficiency, reduced cCa levels. Low baseline cCa, low estimated glomerular filtration rate, and high bone turnover increased the risk of lower cCa, while increasing bone mineral density. Pretreatment with antiresorptive agents was beneficial in reducing the risk of hypocalcemia. INTRODUCTION Although denosumab-induced hypocalcemia has been frequently observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 4-5D being treated with denosumab for osteoporosis, few studies have assessed the risk factors for serum-corrected calcium (cCa) reductions in patients with non-severe renal insufficiency. This study assessed the risk factors for reduced cCa concentration following denosumab administration and analyzed factors predictive of changes in bone mineral density (BMD). METHODS Seventy-seven osteoporotic patients, not including those with CKD stages 4-5D, were treated with 60 mg denosumab once every 6 months. Biochemical parameters and BMD were analyzed from prior to the initial dose until 1 month after the second dose. RESULTS Following the first administration of denosumab, cCa levels decreased, reaching a minimum on day 7. Multiple linear regression analyses showed that baseline cCa, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (TRACP-5b), and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) or pretreatment with antiresorptive agents were significant factors independently associated with the absolute reduction in cCa from baseline to day 7 (ΔcCa0-7 days). ΔcCa0-7 days after the second dose of denosumab was significantly lower than that after the first dose. After 6 months of denosumab treatment, both LS-BMD and FN-BMD significantly increased from baseline. LS-BMD and FN-BMD correlated significantly with baseline TRACP-5b or BAP and eGFR, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Both low eGFR and high bone turnover were independent risk factors for denosumab-induced cCa decrement, and for increases in BMD. Pretreatment with antiresorptive agents may reduce the risk of hypocalcemia.

Am J Cancer Res 2018; 8:2046-2063. [PMID: 30416855 PMCID: PMC6220132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [What about the content of this article?

Abstract
Tumor cell-derived vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C has been primarily implicated in promoting lymphangiogenesis by activating Flt-4 (VEGFR-3) expressed on lymphatic endothelial cells via a paracrine mechanism. Flt4 has also been shown to be expressed selectively in subsets of cancer cells. However, little is known about the functional role of VEGF-C/Flt4 signaling via an autocrine mechanism, as well as the clinicopathological implication of the VEGF-C/Flt4 axis and its downstream effector molecules, in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). In the present study, we detected Flt-4 expression selectively in several HNSCC cell lines by quantitative PCR, and its internalization reflecting receptor activation was confirmed by immunocytochemistry in SAS and HO1U1 cells. Flt-4 stimulation upregulated the expression of contactin-1 (CNTN-1, a neural cell adhesion molecule) and VEGF-C itself in SAS cells, while Flt-4 inhibition downregulated the expression of CNTN-1 in both SAS and HO1U1 cells and that of VEGF-C itself in SAS cells. In vitro cell proliferation and migration assays using SAS cells demonstrated that both cell proliferation and migration were promoted by Flt-4 stimulation, while those were suppressed by Flt-4 inhibition. Clinicopathological factors and immunohistochemical expression of Flt-4, VEGF-C, and CNTN-1 in tumor cells were evaluated using surgical specimens from patients with tongue squamous cell carcinoma. We found a significant correlation of CNTN-1 expression with both VEGF-C and Flt-4 expression, but not between VEGF-C and Flt-4. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that T classification (P = 0.003), lymphatic invasion (P = 0.024), and Flt-4 expression in tumor cells (P = 0.046) were independently predictive of neck lymph node metastasis. These results suggest that the VEGF-C/Flt-4 axis in tumor cells enhances tumor cell proliferation and migration via upregulating the expression of VEGF-C itself and CNTN-1 in an autocrine manner, thereby contributing to cancer progression of OSCC, including neck metastasis. Hence, targeting the VEGF-C/Flt-4 axis in tumor cells can be an attractive therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
AIMS Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is an uncommon, aggressive tumour that, histologically, resembles high-grade mammary ductal carcinoma, and is characterised by the expression of androgen receptor (AR). The androgen signalling pathway, a potential therapeutic target, can be regulated by FOXA1. This study aimed to evaluate the clinicopathological implications of FOXA1 in SDC. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the relationship between the immunoexpression of FOXA1 and FOXA1 mutations and clinicopathological factors, including the biomarker status and clinical outcome, in 142 SDCs. FOXA1 was expressed in 128 SDCs (90.1%); the immunoexpression was heterogeneous. SDCs with a higher FOXA1 labelling index (LI) (≥20%) more frequently showed less advanced tumors on T classification (P = 0.002). FOXA1 LI was correlated positively with the AR expression value (r = 0.430, P < 0.001). PI3K and p-mTOR positivity, and intact-PTEN, were associated with a higher FOXA1 LI. Twenty-two of 121 SDCs (18.2%) harboured FOXA1 gene mutations at the flanking regions in and around the forkhead DNA binding domain; however, the given gene mutation and the expression of FOXA1 were not significantly correlated. A multivariate analysis revealed that SDCs with a higher FOXA1 LI were associated with longer overall survival and progression-free survival (P = 0.029 and 0.016, respectively). CONCLUSIONS In SDC, FOXA1, which may biologically interact with the AR and PI3K signalling pathways, is a putative biomarker that may be associated with a favourable prognosis. Further studies are needed to apply the findings to the development of targeted personalised therapy for patients with SDC.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: COX-2 is one of the two isoforms of cyclooxygenase, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. COX-2 is considered to be associated with progression in various cancers, and its expression has been reported to have an impact on poor prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs). Furthermore, COX-2 expression has been shown to be associated with resistance to anticancer drugs. However, the precise mechanism of COX-2 for chemoresistance in HNSCC is not fully elucidated. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of COX-2 on cancer stem cell property, and to reveal its effect on chemoresistance by in vitro and clinicopathological assays. Methods: We examined the chemoresistance to docetaxel with or without COX-2 inhibitor (celecoxib) in HNSCC cell lines (FaDu, Detroit512) by MTS assays. To evaluate the association of COX-2 expression with stemness property, we assessed alteration of expression levels of the genes related to cancer stem cell (CSC) property after exposure to celecoxib by quantitative real-time PCR. We also performed a sphere formation assay using ultra low attachment dishes and microscopic imaging. Moreover, we analyzed immunohistochemical expressions of COX-2 and clinicopathological factors by using matched samples of pre-treatment biopsy and surgical specimens from hypopharyngeal carcinoma patients who had undergone trans-oral tumor resection with preoperative induction chemotherapy including docetaxel. Results: Cell survival rate under exposure to docetaxel was decreased by addition of celecoxib. COX-2 inhibitor downregulated the expression of Oct3/4 and Nanog. Sphere formation was inhibited by co-culture with COX-2 inhibitor, especially in FaDu cells. Immunohistochemical study in biopsy specimens revealed a negative correlation between COX-2 expression in biopsy specimens and pathological effect of induction chemotherapy in surgical specimens. Conclusion: The present study suggests that COX-2 expression is associated with cancer stemness property, and inhibition of COX-2 has a possibility to enhance chemosensitivity in HNSCCs. Furthermore, initial COX-2 expression in biopsy specimens may predict the effect of chemotherapy in HNSCCs. These results indicate that COX-2 can be an attractive target for the treatment of HNSCC.

Abstract
Background A previous retrospective cohort study established the relationship between perioperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) and subsequent mortality and stroke. However, the details regarding the cause of death and etiology of stroke remain unclear. Methods The prospective cohort study of surveillance for perioperative atrial fibrillation recurrence in major non-cardiac surgery for malignancy (PREDICT AF RECURRENCE) registry is an ongoing prospective cohort study to elucidate the long-term recurrence rate and the clinical impact of new-onset POAF in the setting of head and neck, non-cardiac thoracic, and abdominal surgery for malignancy. In this study, cardiologists collaborate with a surgical team during the perioperative period, carefully observe the electrocardiogram (ECG) monitor, and treat arrhythmia as required. Furthermore, patients who develop new-onset POAF are followed up using a long-term Holter ECG monitor, SPIDER FLASH-t AFib®, to assess POAF recurrence. Discussion Even if patients with malignancy survive by overcoming the disease, they may die from any preventable cardiovascular diseases. In particular, those with POAF may develop cardiogenic stroke in the future. Because details of the natural history of patients with POAF remain unclear, investigating the need to continue anticoagulation therapy for such patients is necessary. This study will provide essential information on the recurrence rate of POAF and new insights into the prediction and treatment of POAF.

Abstract
Background Febrile neutropenia (FN) is the most serious hematologic toxicity of systemic chemotherapy. However, accurate prediction of FN development has been difficult because the risk varies largely depending on the chemotherapy regimen and various individual factors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed diverse clinical factors including pretreatment hematological parameters to clarify the reliable predictors of FN development during chemotherapy with a docetaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil (TPF) regimen in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Results Among the 50 patients, grade ≥3 neutropenia, grade 4 neutropenia, and FN developed in 36 (72%), 21 (42%), and 12 (24%) patients, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that a pretreatment absolute monocyte count (AMC) <370/mm3 is an independent predictor of TPF chemotherapy-induced FN (odds ratio=6.000, p=0.017). The predictive performance of the model combining AMC and absolute neutrophil count (ANC), in which the high-risk group was defined as having an AMC <370/mm3 and/or ANC <3500/mm3, was superior (area under the curve [AUC]=0.745) to that of the model with a cutoff for AMC alone (AUC=0.679). Conclusions On the basis of our results, we recommend primary prophylactic use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and/or antibiotics selectively for patients predicted to be at high risk for TPF chemotherapy-induced FN.

Abstract
The prognostic role of modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) remains unclear. We conducted a multi-institutional retrospective cohort study of 140 SDC patients. The survival impact of these hematological markers was evaluated using multivariate proportional hazard models.High mGPS (≥1) was significantly associated with worse survival (3-year overall survival (OS): 16.7% vs 66.1%, p-value=0.003; 3-year progression-free survival (PFS): 0.0% vs 27.9%, p-value<0.001). Additionally, high C-reactive protein (CRP) (≥0.39 mg/dl) was significantly associated with worse survival (3-year OS: 32.1% vs 68.2%, p-value=0.001; 3-year PFS: 7.1% vs 31.1%, p-value<0.001). These associations were consistent with multivariate analysis adjusted for established prognostic factors. Although we also found significant association of high NLR (≥2.5) with OS (HR 1.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-3.08) in multivariate analysis, this association were inconsistent with the results of PFS. In addition, we found no significant associations of PLR with survival. In conclusion, we found that mGPS, CRP and NLR were identified as prognostic factors associated with survival in SDC patients.

Abstract
The molecular characteristics of therapeutically-relevant targets and their clinicopathological implications in salivary duct carcinomas (SDCs) are poorly understood. We investigated the gene alterations and the immunoexpression of crucial oncogenic molecules in 151 SDCs. The mutation rates that were identified, in order of frequency, were as follows: TP53, 68%; PIK3CA, 18%; H-RAS, 16%; BRAF, 4%; and AKT1, 1.5%. PIK3CA/H-RAS/BRAF mutations were more common in de novo SDC than in SDC ex-pleomorphic adenoma. Furthermore, these mutations were mutually exclusive for HER2 overexpression/amplification. TP53 mutations were frequently detected in cases with the aberrant p53 expression, and TP53 missense and truncating mutations were associated with p53-extreme positivity and negativity, respectively. DISH analysis revealed no cases of EGFR amplification. The rates of PI3K, p-Akt, and p-mTOR positivity were 34%, 22%, and 66%, respectively; PTEN loss was observed in 47% of the cases. These expressions were correlated according to the signaling axis. Cases with PI3K negativity and PTEN loss appeared to show a lower expression of androgen receptor. In the multivariate analysis, patients with SDC harboring TP53 truncating mutations showed shorter progression-free survival. Conversely, p-Akt positivity was associated with a favorable outcome. This study might provide information that leads to advances in personized therapy for SDC.

Abstract
Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is an uncommon, aggressive malignant neoplasm histologically resembling high-grade mammary ductal carcinoma. SDC can arise de novo or ex pleomorphic adenoma. To clarify the correlation of biomarker immunoprofile with clinicopathological findings and clinical outcome of SDC, we conducted immunohistochemistry for EGFR, HER2, HER3, AR, CK5/6, p53, and Ki-67, along with HER2 fluorescence in situ hybridization in 151 SDCs. SDCs ex pleomorphic adenoma more commonly overexpressed EGFR, HER2, HER3, and Ki-67 than de novo SDCs (P = 0.015, < 0.001, 0.045, and 0.02, respectively). In multivariate analysis, AR− and CK5/6+ were associated with shorter progression-free survival (P = 0.027 and 0.004, respectively). Moreover, patients with p53-extreme negative/positive demonstrated poorer overall survival (P = 0.007). On assessing the revised classification by the combination of biomarker expression, the percentages of each subtype were as follows: ‘apocrine A’ (AR+/HER2−/Ki-67-low) (24%), ‘apocrine B’ (AR+/HER2−/Ki-67-high) (18%), ‘apocrine HER2’ (AR+/HER2+) (35%), ‘HER2-enriched’ (AR−/HER2+) (12%), and ‘double negative’ (AR−/HER2−) (11%). ‘Double negative’ was further subclassified into ‘basal-like’ (EGFR and/or CK5/6+) (7%) and ‘unclassified’ (3%). Consequently, patients with ‘apocrine A’ showed a better progression-free survival than those with any other subtypes. Our revised immunoprofiling classification was valuable for predicting the survival and might be useful in personalized therapy for patients with SDC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Overexpression of cyclooxygenase 2 (Cox-2), an inducible prostaglandin (PG) synthetase, is assumed to promote cancer progression through its multifaceted function, including induction of angiogenesis, stimulation of cell proliferation, restraint on apoptosis, and immunosuppression. Furthermore, recently its inverse relationship with E-cadherin expression was reported. The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) accompanied by the downregulation of E-cadherin is supposed to promote metastasis. However, neither the anti-cancer effect of selective Cox-2 inhibitors on the regulation of E-cadherin nor its specific mechanism has been examined in pharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (PhSCC). In addition, the anti-tumor effect of EP2 antagonist, a possibly more selective inhibitor of PGE2, remains to be elucidated.
Methods: We used quantitative real-time PCR to examine the effects of a selective Cox-2 inhibitors, Celecoxib, and a selective EP2 antagonist, PF-04418948, on the gene expressions of CDH-1, its transcriptional repressors (snail, ZEB1, twist), and vimentin in the human PhSCC cell lines BICR6 and FaDu. Alteration in E-cadherin expression on the cell surface was evaluated by immunofluorescent staining. In vitro proliferation and migration assays were performed to assess cellular behaviors. Clinicopathological factors and immunohistochemical expressions of Cox-2 and E-cadherin were evaluated using surgical specimens from 54 patients with PhSCC who underwent transoral resection.
Results: Both Celecoxib and PF-04418948 upregulated the CDH-1 expression and the membranous E-cadherin expression and downregulate the vimentin expression in the PhSCC cells through the suppression of snail, ZEB1, and twist expression. The extent of this effect depended on the baseline expression levels of both E-cadherin and Cox-2 in each cell line. Additionally, the cell migration was attenuated by both Celecoxib and PF-04418948, whereas the cell proliferation was not affected. Univariate analysis showed that differentiation, overexpression of Cox-2, and decreased expression of E-cadherin were significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that overexpression of Cox-2 (odds ratio [OR]=53.49, P<0.001) and decreased expression of E-cadherin (OR=0.06, P=0.016) were the independent risk factors affecting lymph node metastasis.
Conclusions: These findings suggest that the appropriately selective administration of the Cox-2 inhibitor and EP2 antagonist may have an anti-metastatic effect through suppression of EMT by restoring E-cadherin expression. In addition, overexpression of Cox-2 and downregulation of E-cadherin may be closely implicated in lymph node metastasis in PhSCC.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Tumor hypoxia is considered to be associated with progression in various cancers. Hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is one of the molecules which play a key role in tumor hypoxia. High HIF-1α expression is reported to have an impact on poor prognosis and resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). However, the effect and mechanism of HIF-1α on tumor metastasis in HNSCC is still unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the molecular targets of HIF1-α relevant to metastasis, and to reveal the impact of HIF1-α on HNSCC metastasis by using clinicopathological assays. Methods: The cell proliferation rate with or without HIF-1 inhibitor (KC7F2) in HNSCC cell lines (FaDu, Detroit512) was evaluated by MTS assay. Gene expression levels related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cancer stem cell (CSC) and HIF-1α in each HNSCC cell lines were measured by quantitative real-time PCR. Immunohistochemical expressions of HIF-1α and clinicopathological factors were analyzed using surgical specimens from 33 patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma who had undergone trans-oral tumor resection without previous chemotherapy nor radiotherapy.
Results: HIF-1 inhibitor suppressed the cell growth of HNSCC cell lines in a dose dependent manner. HIF-1 inhibitor downregulated the expression of HIF-1α, twist, Oct3/4 and Nanog. In immunohistochemical study, the HIF-1α expression was higher in cancer cells than in normal cells of the adjacent normal mucosa. Univariate analysis revealed that high expression of HIF-1α was significantly correlated with T-classification (P=0.012), lymph node metastasis (P=0.002) and lymphatic invasion (P=0.03).
Conclusion: These results suggest that HIF-1α plays a key role in tumor progression of HNSCC through EMT and CSC properties. From the present study, HIF-1α inhibition may have the possibility to suppress tumor metastasis, making HIF-1α an attractive target for the treatment of HNSCC.

Abstract
Background Transoral videolaryngoscopic surgery (TOVS) was developed as a new distinct surgical procedure for hypopharyngeal cancer (HPC) and supraglottic cancer (SGC) staged at up to T3. However, long-term treatment outcomes of TOVS remain to be validated. Methods Under a straight broad intraluminal view provided by combined use of a distending laryngoscope and a videolaryngoscope, we performed en bloc tumor resection via direct bimanual handling of the ready-made straight-form surgical instruments and devices. We retrospectively analyzed functional and oncologic outcomes of 72 patients with HPC (n = 58) or SGC (n = 14) whose minimum follow-up was 24 months or until death. Results The cohort comprised nine patients of Tis, 23 of T1, 33 of T2, and 7 of T3. Among 36 patients (50%) who underwent neck dissection simultaneously, all but one were pathologically node-positive. Twelve patients underwent postoperative concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) as adjuvant treatment, and another four patients underwent radiation or CCRT for second or later primary cancer. The endotracheal tube was removed in an operation room in all but two patients who underwent temporary tracheostomy. Pharyngeal fistula was formed transiently in two patients. The median time until patients resumed oral intake and could take a soft meal was 2 and 5 days, respectively. Eventually, 69 patients (96%) took normal meals. The 5-year cause-specific survival (CSS), overall survival (OS), larynx-preserved CSS, and loco-regional controlled CSS were 87.3%, 77.9%, 86.0%, and 88.0%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed N2-3 as an independent prognostic factor in both CSS (hazard ratio [HR] = 25.51, P = 0.008) and OS (HR = 4.90, P = 0.022), which indirectly reflected higher risk of delayed distant metastasis. Conclusions Considering its sound functional and oncological outcomes with various practical advantages, TOVS can be a dependable, less invasive, and cost-effective surgical option of an organ-function preservation strategy for HPC and SGC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative diagnosis of lymph node metastasis from thyroid carcinoma is usually confirmed by using fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) when thyroid carcinoma is suspected based on the clinical findings. However, the result of FNAC sometimes leads to a false negative, especially in cases of hypocellular lesions such as metastases with cystic change. Thyroglobulin measurement in fine needle aspirates (FNA-Tg) has been shown to be a useful technique to detect the protein specifically secreted by thyroid follicular cells. Elevated FNA-Tg levels in an extra-thyroidal lesion means that the lesion comprises thyroid-originated tissue, most of which suggests the metastasis from thyroid carcinoma. Thus, FNA-Tg is expected to improve the sensitivity of FNAC for the aforementioned purpose. PATIENTS AND METHODS From 2008 to 2012, 49 extra-thyroidal lesions from 43 patients with thyroid carcinoma were examined using both FNAC and FNA-Tg, followed by surgical resection with a histopathological diagnosis. The results were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS Among 49 lesions, 47 were metastatic lymph nodes from thyroid carcinoma (46 papillary carcinoma and one follicular carcinoma), one was a metastatic lymph node from submandibular gland adenocarcinoma, and one was an ectopic thyroid gland. In the 47 cases of thyroid carcinoma, the sensitivity of FNAC was 57.4% (27/47), whereas that of FNA-Tg was 76.6% (36/47). When both methods were combined, the sensitivity increased to 93.6% (44/47). Metastasis from submandibular gland adenocarcinoma was considered to be an example of a false positive from FNAC, whereas an ectopic thyroid gland was an FNA-Tg false positive. Three lesions were negative for both FNAC and FNA-Tg, although metastases were suspected by imaging studies and confirmed by histopathological diagnosis, which were consistent with examples of a false negative from both FNAC and FNA-Tg findings. CONCLUSIONS FNAC reflects whether the lesion has malignant cells, whereas FNA-Tg reflects whether the lesion has thyroid-originated tissue that specifically secrets thyroglobulin. Therefore, FNAC and FNA-Tg are considered to be complementary to each other for the preoperative diagnosis of lymph node metastasis from thyroid carcinoma. FNA-Tg was validated to improve the preoperative diagnostic sensitivity especially when combined with FNAC, however, it is attended with the possibility of a false positive or negative finding, which requires caution in interpretation of the findings.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The side population (SP) of cancer cells is reportedly enriched with cancer stem cells (CSCs), however, the functional role and clinical relevance of CSC marker molecules upregulated in the SP of head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) cells are yet to be elucidated. Patients with clinical stage I/II (T1-2N0M0) tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) typically undergo partial glossectomy alone; however, development of delayed neck metastasis (DNM) tends to reduce their survival. In the present study, we aimed to determine the CSC markers in the SP of HNSCC cells along with their functions in cellular behaviors, and to clarify the association of these markers with DNM.
Methods: Flow cytometry was applied to isolate SP from main population (MP) in HNSCC cells (SCC4, SAS, and HSC4). The expression of the CSC markers was examined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry. In vitro proliferation, migration, and invasion assays were performed to assess cellular behaviors. Clinicopathological factors and immunohistochemical expressions of Oct3/4 and Nanog were evaluated using surgical specimens from 50 patients with stage I/II TSCC who underwent partial glossectomy alone.
Results: SPs were isolated in all three cell lines examined. Expression levels of Oct3/4 and Nanog were higher in SP cells than MP cells. Additionally, cell migration and invasion abilities were higher in SP cells than MP cells, whereas there was no difference in proliferation. Univariate analysis showed that expression of Oct3/4 and Nanog, vascular invasion, muscular invasion, and mode of invasion were significantly correlated with DNM. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that Oct3/4 expression (risk ratio = 14.78, p = 0.002) and vascular invasion (risk ratio = 12.93, p = 0.017) were independently predictive of DNM. Regarding the diagnostic performance, Oct3/4 showed the highest accuracy, sensitivity, and negative predictive value of 82.0%, 61.5%, and 86.8%, respectively, while vascular invasion showed the highest specificity and positive predictive value of 94.6% and 71.4%, respectively.
Conclusion: These results suggest that Oct3/4 and Nanog represent probable CSC markers in HNSCC, which contribute to the development of DNM in part by enhancing cell motility and invasiveness. Moreover, along with vascular invasion, expression of Oct3/4 in the primary cancer cells can be considered a potential predictor for selecting patients at high risk of developing DNM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among salivary gland malignancies, the prognosis of salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is assumed to be the poorest. However, because of its low incidence, reliable survival estimates and prognostic factors based on a large number of patients remain to be elucidated, thereby making it impossible to standardize the optimal treatment for SDC. METHODS We performed this multi-institutional, retrospective analysis by collecting the clinical information of 141 patients with SDC without distant metastasis who underwent curative surgery as the initial treatment to elucidate overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) along with their prognostic factors. RESULTS The 3-year OS and DFS rates were 70.5 and 38.2 %, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that age ≥65 years (p < 0.001) and N1 and N2 (p = 0.047 and <0.001, respectively) were independent prognostic factors for OS, whereas the primary site of the minor salivary and sublingual gland (p < 0.001) and N2 (p < 0.001) were those for DFS. The most common treatment failure was distant metastasis (55 patients, 39.0 %). For early parotid SDC, neither total parotidectomy in the patients with early T stage nor nerve resection in the patients without facial nerve palsy showed survival benefits. CONCLUSIONS Advanced N stage independently affects both OS and DFS. Partial parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation could be a less invasive standard surgical procedure for parotid gland SDC in the early T stage without facial nerve palsy. Effective systemic therapy is imperative to improve DFS of SDC.

Abstract
The candidate tumor suppressor gene RASSF1A (Ras-association domain family 1, isoform A) is inactivated in many types of adult and childhood cancers. However, the mechanisms by which RASSF1A exerts tumor suppressive functions have yet to be elucidated. In this report, we sought to identify candidate proteins that interact with RASSF1A using proteomic screening. Using peptide mass fingerprinting, we identified protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), a type II protein arginine N-methyltransferase that monomethylates and symmetrically dimethylates arginine residues, as a novel protein that interacts with RASSF1A. The association between the two proteins was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence staining. Co-expressing RASSF1A and PRMT5 led to a redistribution of PRMT5 from the cytosol to stabilized microtubules, where RASSF1A and PRMT5 became co-localized. Our results demonstrate that PRMT5 translocates to bundled microtubules on stabilization by RASSF1A expression. Our results show that the tumor suppressor RASSF1A interacts with PRMT5 in vivo and in vitro. Notably, this is the first demonstration of RASSF1A-dependent microtubule recruitment of PRMT5, suggesting a novel role for RASSF1A in the anchoring of cytosolic PRMT5 to microtubules.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The side population (SP) of cancer cells is reportedly enriched with cancer stem cells (CSCs), however, the functional role and clinical relevance of CSC marker molecules upregulated in the SP of head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) cells are yet to be elucidated. Patients with clinical stage I/II (T1-2N0M0) tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) typically undergo partial glossectomy; however, development of delayed neck metastasis (DNM) tends to reduce their survival. In the present study, we aimed to determine the CSC markers in the SP of HNSCC cells along with their functions in cellular behaviors, and to clarify the association of these markers with DNM. METHODS Flow cytometry was applied to isolate SP from main population (MP) in HNSCC cells. The expression of the CSC markers was examined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry. In vitro proliferation, migration, and invasion assays were performed to assess cellular behaviors. Clinicopathological factors and immunohistochemical expressions of Oct3/4 and Nanog were evaluated using surgical specimens from 50 patients with stage I/II TSCC. RESULTS SPs were isolated in all three cell lines examined. Expression levels of Oct3/4 and Nanog were higher in SP cells than MP cells. Additionally, cell migration and invasion abilities were higher in SP cells than MP cells, whereas there was no difference in proliferation. Univariate analysis showed that expression of Oct3/4 and Nanog, vascular and muscular invasion, and mode of invasion were significantly correlated with DNM. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that Oct3/4 expression (risk ratio = 14.78, p = 0.002) and vascular invasion (risk ratio = 12.93, p = 0.017) were independently predictive of DNM. Regarding the diagnostic performance, Oct3/4 showed the highest accuracy, sensitivity, and NPV of 82.0 %, 61.5 %, and 86.8 %, respectively, while vascular invasion showed the highest specificity and PPV of 94.6 % and 71.4 %, respectively. CONCLUSION These results suggest that Oct3/4 and Nanog represent probable CSC markers in HNSCC, which contribute to the development of DNM in part by enhancing cell motility and invasiveness. Moreover, along with vascular invasion, expression of Oct3/4 can be considered a potential predictor for selecting patients at high risk of developing DNM.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Serum undercarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC)/intact osteocalcin (iOC) ratio increased >1.0 in the patients undergoing hemodialysis, particularly in those with high bone turnover state. Consequently, serum ucOC/iOC ratio might lose its significance as a bone metabolic marker to indicate vitamin K deficiency in hemodialysis patients. INTRODUCTION Serum intact osteocalcin (iOC), undercarboxylated OC (ucOC), and the ucOC/iOC ratio are considered clinically relevant indices in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients, despite their accumulation in uremic serum. METHODS Serum iOC and ucOC were measured along with serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP)-5b in 89 pre-dialysis CKD and 189 HD patients. RESULTS Serum iOC and ucOC showed significantly negative correlations with estimated glomerular filtration rate in pre-dialysis CKD patients, although serum ucOC/iOC ratio did not correlate. Serum ucOC was significantly greater in HD patients than in pre-dialysis CKD patients, while serum iOC did not differ significantly, resulting in serum ucOC/iOC ratio >1.0 in 135 (71.4%) out of 189 HD patients. HD patients with high serum ucOC/iOC ratio (>1.0) had a significantly younger age and significantly higher values of body mass index, serum creatinine, albumin, phosphate, iPTH, and TRACP-5b than those with low ucOC/iOC ratio (≤ 1.0). The baseline iPTH and P1NP correlated with the changes of the ucOC/iOC ratio during the 2 days of the inter-dialytic period. Multivariate analysis showed that log [ucOC/iOC] in HD patients was significantly associated with log [iPTH], log [BAP], or log [TRACP-5b]. CONCLUSIONS Serum ucOC/iOC ratio >1.0 was observed in as high as 71.4% of HD patients, preferentially with high bone turnover state, in comparison with pre-dialysis CKD patients. These data suggested that serum ucOC/iOC ratio might lose its significance as a bone metabolic marker to indicate vitamin K deficiency in HD patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the usefulness of intraluminal PCO2 (PiCO2) monitoring by air tonometry for the assessment of the vascular condition of the transferred jejunum after surgery for hypopharyngeal cancer.PiCO2 in the transplanted jejunum of 24 patients was monitored using air tonometry after radical surgery for hypopharyngeal cancer from 2003 to 2010.All but 1 patient, who removed the catheter before monitoring began, were monitored safely. PiCO2 in the transferred jejunum correlated with arterial PCO2 (PaCO2) that was measured concurrently, and dissociation of PiCO2 from PaCO2 was observed in cases with vascular complication. In those cases without postoperative vascular complication, the PiCO2 value gradually increased for 3 hours but then decreased by 12 hours after surgery. Three patients experienced major vascular complication. All 3 patients had continuous elevation of PiCO2 >100 mm Hg, although vascular flow in 1 patient recovered by removal of a venous thrombosis and reanastomosis of the vein 7.5 hours after surgery. Four other patients who experienced elevation of PiCO2 had their skin suture released for decompression of their neck wound, resulting in a decrease in PiCO2 after treatment.The current results demonstrated that continuous monitoring of PiCO2 by air tonometry accurately reflects the vascular condition of the transferred jejunum, and this method is one of the best options for postoperative monitoring of jejunum blood perfusion.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cortical porosity is increasingly recognized as an important risk for fracture in DM patients. The present study demonstrated that decreased cortical thickness, assessed using a newly developed quantitative ultrasonic bone densitometry, is a significant risk factor for vertebral fractures in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with stage 3 or higher chronic kidney disease, but not in those without. INTRODUCTION Cortical porosity is increasingly recognized as an important risk factor for fracture in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients as well as in stage 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients in whom serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) starts to increase. The present study aimed to clarify whether the coexistence of CKD might affect the relationship of decreased cortical thickness (CoTh) in the development of vertebral fractures (VF) in T2DM patients. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, trabecular bone mineral density (TrBMD), elastic modulus of trabecular bone (EMTb), and CoTh were estimated with a new quantitative ultrasound bone densitometry in 173 T2DM patients. VFs were identified radiographically. RESULTS Thirty-nine patients (22.5%) had VF. Those with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (low eGFR) showed a significantly higher VF rate (32.4%) than those with eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) (high eGFR, 16.2%). Serum PTH was significantly higher with low eGFR than with high eGFR. In those with high eGFR, EMTb was significantly lower in VF(+) than VF(-). In those with low eGFR, TrBMD, EMTb, and CoTh were significantly lower in VF(+) than in VF(-). In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, EMTb was independently and significantly associated with VF in T2DM patients with a high eGFR, in contrast to those with only CoTh with VF in T2DM with low eGFR. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated CoTh as a factor independently associated with VF in T2DM patients with low eGFR and increasing serum PTH levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence rates of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) have risen steadily in the USA and in northern Europe. These increases are thought to be a consequence of persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) in OPSCC patients. HPV is an emerging etiologic factor in OPSCC. In Japan, the incidence of OPSCC has significantly increased over the last three decades. However, the population of HPV-positive OPSCC patients is currently unknown. We examined the nationwide trends with regard to HPV incidence in OPSCC patients at 21 specific sites, and examined the relationship between the presence of HPV and survival in OPSCC patients in Japan. METHODS Tumor samples were obtained from patients with OPSCC prior to treatment, and HPV infection was investigated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Hybrid Capture 2 (HC2) was also adopted for swab examination on the surface of fresh tumors. RESULTS HPV was detected by PCR in 79 (50.3%) out of 157 OPSCC patients. The clinical features of HPV-positive OPSCC were low differentiation, a tendency to involve the lateral wall, and high nodal staging. The sensitivity and specificity of HC2 were 93.7 and 96.2%, respectively, indicating its utility as a screening test. HPV-positive patients had significantly better overall survival and disease-free survival than HPV-negative patients.

Abstract
We retrospectively reviewed the records of the 30 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the head and neck (ACCHN) who had undergone initial treatment in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Keio University School of Medicine between 1988 and 2007. The primary tumor site was the parotid gland in 10 patients and the submandibular gland in 4 patients, which account for about a half of the subjects. Thirty patients underwent surgical resection with curative intent as the primary treatment, of which 10 patients had post-operative radiotherapy. The 5-and 10-year disease-specific survival (DSS) was 73.9% and 62.4%, respectively, whereas the 5-and 10-year disease-free survival (DFS) was 64.3% and 59.7%, respectively. A univariate analysis revealed that DSS was significantly correlated with perineural invasion (p = 0.010) and lymphatic invasion (p = 0.036), while DFS was significantly correlated with higher T-stage (p = 0.044), a positive surgical margin (p = 0.012) and perineural invasion (p = 0.019). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that perineural invasion (p = 0.034, risk ratio = 9.530) was the independent prognostic factor for DSS, whereas for DFS it was a positive surgical margin (p = 0.038, risk ratio = 8.897). The histological grade classification, defined specifically for ACC, showed no correlation with the survival. Extended resection with wider margin and additional resection in cases with positive margin may improve treatment results, however, surgical resection alone can prevent neither the development of local recurrence mainly attributed to undetectable perineural invasion, nor that of delayed distant metastasis. Therefore, the roles of adjuvant radiotherapy and effective systemic therapies are also significant in ACCHN, although a reliable regimen for the latter has not yet been established. Development of a personalized strategy for the adjuvant therapy, which should be based on the accurate prediction of the long-term prognosis in combination with dependable molecular biomarkers, would be indispensable in the future to improve the clinical outcome of the patients with ACCHN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) accompanied by the downregulation of E-cadherin has been thought to promote metastasis. Cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) is presumed to contribute to cancer progression through its multifaceted function, and recently its inverse relationship with E-cadherin was suggested. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether selective Cox-2 inhibitors restore the expression of E-cadherin in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells, and to examine the possible correlations of the expression levels of EMT-related molecules with clinicopathological factors in HNSCC. METHODS We used quantitative real-time PCR to examine the effects of three selective Cox-2 inhibitors, i.e., celecoxib, NS-398, and SC-791 on the gene expressions of E-cadherin (CDH-1) and its transcriptional repressors (SIP1, Snail, Twist) in the human HNSCC cell lines HSC-2 and HSC-4. To evaluate the changes in E-cadherin expression on the cell surface, we used a flowcytometer and immunofluorescent staining in addition to Western blotting. We evaluated and statistically analyzed the clinicopathological factors and mRNA expressions of Cox-2, CDH-1 and its repressors in surgical specimens of 40 patients with tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC). RESULTS The selective Cox-2 inhibitors upregulated the E-cadherin expression on the cell surface of the HNSCC cells through the downregulation of its transcriptional repressors. The extent of this effect depended on the baseline expression levels of both E-cadherin and Cox-2 in each cell line. A univariate analysis showed that higher Cox-2 mRNA expression (p = 0.037), lower CDH-1 mRNA expression (p = 0.020), and advanced T-classification (p = 0.036) were significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis in TSCC. A multivariate logistic regression revealed that lower CDH-1 mRNA expression was the independent risk factor affecting lymph node metastasis (p = 0.041). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the appropriately selective administration of certain Cox-2 inhibitors may have an anti-metastatic effect through suppression of the EMT by restoring E-cadherin expression. In addition, the downregulation of CDH-1 resulting from the EMT may be closely involved in lymph node metastasis in TSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of its low incidence, the clinical characteristics of the salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) based on a statistical analysis with a large number of patients remain to be elucidated, and thus it has been impossible to standardize the optimal treatments of SDC including adjuvant systemic therapy. AIMS The present study aimed to determine the prognostic factors along with the clinical outcomes of patients with SDC and to evaluate the expression of several receptor molecules as treatment targets. METHODS We performed a statistical analysis and immunohistochemical examination of 16 patients with SDC who had undergone initial treatment in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Keio University School of Medicine from 1996 to 2010. RESULTS The 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) and cause-specific survival (CSS) rates were 29.2% and 72.7%, respectively. At the time of the analysis, 6 patients are alive without the disease, 2 patients are alive with distant metastasis, whereas 7 patients had died of distant metastasis, and 1 patient had died of another cause (pulmonary embolism). We examined the prognostic value of the clinico-pathological factors such as age, sex, T classification, N classification, clinical stage, primary site, histological pre-existence of pleomorphic adenoma. A univariate analysis revealed that DFS was significantly correlated with age (p = 0.049), T classification (p = 0.018), and clinical stage (p = 0.029), whereas no factor was found to be correlated with CSS. A multivariate analysis demonstrated that age (> or = 61 vs. < or = 60, risk ratio (RR) = 5.423, p = 0.042) and T classification (3, 4 vs. 1, 2, RR = 1.087, p = 0.020) were the independent prognostic factors for DFS. Positive expressions of HER2, ER (estrogen receptor), PR (progesterone receptor), AR (androgen receptor), and MIB-1 (index > 20%) were found in 50%, 6%, 13%, 100%, and 69%, respectively. However, none of them showed significant correlation with survival. CONCLUSION Frequent expressions of HER-2 and AR in SDC suggest that these receptors can be suitable molecular targets of systemic therapy for patients with SDC in which distant metastasis seems to be the largest obstacle to improving survival. In order to assess the efficacy of anti-HER-2 therapy and anti-androgen therapy for each receptor-positive SDC, a multi-institutional joint research system should be organized.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We reported previously that serum parathyroid hormone [PTH(1-84)]/intact PTH[PTH(1-84) + PTH(7-84)] ratio provides the better marker for parathyroid function and bone turnover state than serum PTH level itself. The present study demonstrated that higher PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio, but not serum PTH(1-84) and intact PTH, predicted higher all-cause mortality in 177 male hemodialysis patients. INTRODUCTION We reported that PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio provides a clinically relevant marker for parathyroid function and the resultant bone turnover state. The purpose of our study was to investigate the association of PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio with all-cause mortality (ACM) in male hemodialysis patients. METHODS The study was performed for 70 months. Serum PTH in 177 male hemodialysis patients was measured with PTH(1-84)-specific whole PTH assay and intact PTH assay which cross-reacts with N-truncated PTH including PTH(7-84). RESULTS The patients (n = 177) were divided into higher and lower halves based on serum levels of PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio (cutoff value, 0.484), intact PTH (143.8 pg/mL), and PTH(1-84) (64.1 pg/mL). In Kaplan-Meier analysis, the higher group in whole PTH/intact PTH ratio had significantly higher ACM than the lower group (P = 0.020 by log-rank test), in contrast with the insignificant difference between the higher and lower groups in intact PTH and PTH(1-84). Multivariate Cox regression hazard analysis identified higher log [PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio], but not log intact PTH or log PTH(1-84) as a significant independent predictor [hazard ratio 14.428 (95% CI 2.486-83.728)] for ACM after adjustment for various factors including age, hemodialysis duration, presence/absence of diabetes mellitus, BMI, log C-reactive protein, serum albumin, calcium, and phosphate. The association existed between log [PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio] and ACM in those without vitamin D administration (n = 95). CONCLUSION Higher PTH(1-84)/intact PTH ratio, which provides a relevant marker for parathyroid function, may be a significant predictor of ACM in male hemodialysis patients.
