Abstract

Background

The expression of Fos-related antigen 1 (Fra-1) affects tumor progression, migration, and invasion. In this study, we identified the genes regulated by Fra-1 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

Methods

We constructed Fra-1 knockdown models via the transfection of small interfering RNA (siRNA) into ESCC cell lines (TE10, TE11). The expression levels of the genes in the knockdown models were analyzed using a microarray and a Biobase Upstream Analysis, while the expression levels of the candidate genes in the primary tumors of surgical specimens obtained from ESCC patients were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunohistochemical staining. The clinicopathological features were then analyzed.

Results

The Biobase Upstream Analysis showed the high-mobility-group protein-1 (HMGA1) to be a significant gene regulated by Fra-1. Actual binding of Fra-1 to the promotor region of HMGA1 was revealed in subsequent chromatin immunoprecipitation PCR experiments. Patients with a positive HMGA1 expression had a poor prognosis, and a multivariate analysis demonstrated a positive HMGA1 expression to be a significant independent prognostic factor.

Conclusion

HMGA1 is regulated by Fra-1 in ESCC, and the HMGA1 expression is significantly associated with a poor prognosis in ESCC patients. Downregulation of the HMGA1 expression may become a practical treatment strategy against ESCC in the future.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

CME: 2 Punkte

Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Antoniadis Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

CME: 2 Punkte

Dr. med. Benjamin Meyknecht, PD Dr. med. Oliver Pieske Das Webinar S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“ beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
