Background: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN)-derived pancreatic cancer was previously categorized into tubular, colloid, and oncocytic subtypes. Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms (IOPN) has long been associated with superior prognosis/indolent behavior, however, there is discordant emerging evidence. This study aimed to investigate this conflicting literature.
Methods: Patients with resected IOPN-derived and IPMN-derived pancreatic cancer were identified from six international centers. Log-rank tests compared time to (TtR) and survival after (SAR) recurrence and five-year overall survival (OS). A multivariable mixed model was used to determine hazard ratios (HR) with confidence intervals (95%CI) for five-year survival.
Results: Of 879 patients, 20 (2%) had IOPN-derived pancreatic cancer. Most patients had T1 (55%) or N0 (70%) disease. IOPN and colloid IPMN-derived pancreatic cancers had similar recurrence rates (25% vs. 24%), while recurrence was more common in tubular IPMN-derived pancreatic cancer (42%, p < 0.001). IOPN-derived pancreatic cancer displayed a longer TtR and SAR compared to colloid and tubular IPMN-derived pancreatic cancers. IOPN-derived and colloid IPMN-derived cancers demonstrated significantly lower 5-year mortality risks compared to tubular IPMN-derived cancers (74% and 27% risk reduction, respectively; p < 0.05).
Conclusion: IOPN-derived pancreatic cancers have excellent OS. However, some patients have poor prognostic factors and are at risk for both local and systemic recurrence. Given more indolent disease progression given delayed TtR and prolonged SAR compared to colloid and tubular IPMN-derived pancreatic cancers, there may be a role for prolonged surveillance.

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.
