Article Abstract

Objective: To study the expression of RUNX3 in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and its correlation with microvessel density (MVD), and investigate the clinical pathological prognostic significance of RUNX3 and MVD in patients with colorectal cancer.

Methods: The expression value of RUNX3 and MVD in 70 specimens' colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry staining technique. The correlation between their expression and the clinicopathologic features was also investigated.

Results: The expression value of RUNX3 and the positive rates of RUNX3 in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues were 3.25 ± 1.14 and 25.71% (18/70). The expression value of MVD in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues was 13.14 ± 3.23. Expression of RUNX3 and MVD value were correlated with CEA, serosal invasion, liver metastasis, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage (P < 0.01). The expression value of RUNX3 had negative correlations with that of MVD.

Conclusions: The high expression of RUNX3 could inhibit tumor microvascular generation in order to have negative control response on invasion and distant metastasis.

This study comprehensively analyses two new ruthenium(III) complexes, [RuCl(Nic)][(CH)NH]DMF, 1, and [RuCl(3-HPA)][3-HHPA](EtOH), 2, (where Nic = nicotinic acid (vitamin B3), 3-HPA = anion of a 3-hydroxypicolinic acid), as potential antimicrobial agents, highlighting their physicochemical properties, nanoparticle formation, and cytotoxic activity. The complexes were fully characterised by a single crystal X-ray diffraction technique, Fourier-transform infrared, energy-dispersive X-ray, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies. The synthesis of micro- and nanoparticles (NPs) of these complexes was performed using the liquid anti-solvent crystallisation method.

Introduction Early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC), defined as colorectal cancer diagnosed before the age of 50, has exhibited a sustained increase in incidence globally. In Mexico, this rising trend presents significant clinical and diagnostic challenges, particularly in younger patients who often lack traditional risk factors. This study aimed to describe and compare the epidemiological, clinical, histopathological, and therapeutic characteristics of EOCRC versus late-onset colorectal cancer (LOCRC) in a referral hospital in Mexico City.

Background And Objectives: Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening and early detection reduce mortality. Curative treatment is based on surgical resection, and pathological analysis plays a key role in management. In Lebanon, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare has been compounded by an unprecedented socio-economic crisis in 2020.

Crohn's-disease-associated colorectal cancer, where chronic inflammation increases the risk of cancer development, is less common than other types of colorectal cancer. Pathological analyses of Crohn's-disease-associated colorectal cancer are limited. Herein, we present a case of Crohn's disease-associated colorectal cancer, suggesting stepwise carcinogenesis from the chronic inflammatory mucosa.

Left-sided partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) may remain clinically silent and undiagnosed until incidentally identified, potentially introducing complexity in perioperative assessment and management, particularly in patients with significant comorbidities. We report the case of a 77-year-old male with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma and a history of multiple right-sided pulmonary metastasectomies. He underwent a right completion upper bilobectomy.
