Article Abstract
Cholesterol correlates with occurrence and progression of pancreatic cancer and has predictive value for postoperative prognosis in various cancers. Our study intended to reveal the relationship between perioperative serum total cholesterol (TC) level and postoperative prognosis of pancreatic cancer. We retrospectively analyzed the data of pancreatic cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment at our hospital from January 2015 to December 2021. ROC curves between serum TC level at each time point and 1-year survival rate were drawn, from which study object and optimal cutoff value was determined. Patients were divided into low and high-TC groups, and perioperative data and prognosis were compared. Risk factors for poor postoperative prognosis were identified by univariate and multivariate analysis. Overall survival rates at postoperative 1, 2 and 3 years in the low and high-TC groups were 52.9%, 29.4%, and 15.6% and 80.4%, 47.2%, and 33.8% ( = 0.005), respectively. Multivariate analysis confirmed tumor differentiation degree ( = 2.054, 95% CI: 1.396-3.025), pTNM stage ( = 1.595, 95% CI: 1.020-2.494), lymph node metastasis ( = 1.693, 95% CI: 1.127-2.544), and postoperative 4-week serum TC level ( = 0.663, 95% CI: 0.466-0.944) as independent risk factors for prognosis of pancreatic cancer. We conclude that postoperative 4-week serum TC level has certain predictive value for long-term postoperative prognosis of pancreatic cancer.

Platinum-group metal half-sandwich complexes are considered to be potential replacements of the clinically widely used platins which have several side effects and tend to cause resistance to develop. In our previous works, we used a range of 2-pyridyl-substituted N- and C-glycosyl heterocycles as N,N-chelating ligands to prepare ruthenium(II), osmium(II), iridium(III) and rhodium(III) polyhapto arene/arenyl half-sandwich complexes. Some of these complexes, particularly with the C-glucopyranosyl isoxazole derived ligand in its O-perbenzoylated form, exhibited greater anticancer efficiency than cisplatin and had minimal or negligible effects on non-transformed fibroblasts.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells exhibit high metabolic flexibility, enabling survival under glucose limitation by using alternative fuels such as fatty acids. Lipophagy, a selective form of autophagy targeting lipid droplets (LDs), supports mitochondrial respiration during such nutrient stress. Our previous study demonstrated that the LSD1 inhibitor SP-2509 disrupts lipophagy independently of LSD1 inhibition, leading to LD accumulation and ATP depletion in glycolysis-suppressed PDAC cells.

Hepatic reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (RLH), also known as hepatic pseudolymphoma, is a rare benign condition that predominantly affects middle-aged-to-elderly women and is often associated with autoimmune disorders. The imaging features of hepatic RLH frequently mimic those of malignant hepatic tumors, such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma, or metastatic liver tumors, making its diagnosis based solely on imaging modalities challenging, often leading to unnecessary surgical resection. However, the optimal diagnostic strategy for hepatic RLH remains controversial.

Purpose: We reviewed recent advancements in the characterization of intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN) of the pancreas, with a specific focus on developments in immunohistochemical markers, molecular pathology, and pathogenic mechanisms over the past ten years (2015-2024). Through comprehensive analysis of current literature, we aimed to elucidate the evolving understanding of IOPN's biological behavior and diagnostic features, while identifying potential areas for future research in this distinctive pancreatic neoplasm.
Methods: English-language articles on IOPN were searched from Pubmed from the first report of IOPN of the pancreas in 2015 to 2024.
