Abstract
Type 2-diabetic (T2D) disease has been reported to increase the incidence of liver cancer, however, the underlying pathophysiology is still not fully understood. Here, we aimed to reveal the underlying pathophysiology association between the T2D and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and, therefore, to find the possible therapeutic targets in the occurrence and development of HCC. The methylation microarray data of T2D and HCC were extracted from the Gene Expression Omnibus and The Cancer Genome Atlas. A total of 504 differentially methylated genes (DMGs) between T2D samples and the controls were identified, whereas 6269 DMGs were identified between HCC samples and the control groups. There were 336 DMGs coexisting in diabetes and HCC, among which 86 genes were comethylated genes. These genes were mostly enriched in pathways as glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, fatty acid, and metabolic pathway as glycosaminoglycan degradation and thiamine, fructose and mannose. There were 250 DMGs that had differential methylation direction between T2D DMGs and HCC DMGs, and these genes were enriched in the Sphingolipid metabolism pathway and immune pathways through natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity and ak-STAT signaling pathway. Eight genes were found related to the occurrence and development of diabetes and HCC. Moreover, the result of protein-protein interaction network showed that CDKN1A gene was related to the prognosis of HCC. In summary, eight genes were found to be associated with the development of HCC and CDKN1A may serve as the potential prognostic gene for HCC.

Abstract
The irreproducibility problem seriously hinders the studies on transcriptional signatures for predicting relapse risk of early stage colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Through reviewing recently published 34 literatures for the development of CRC prognostic signatures based on gene expression profiles, we revealed a surprising phenomenon that 33 of these studies analyzed CRC samples with and without adjuvant chemotherapy together in the training and/or validation datasets. This data misuse problem could be partially attributed to the unclear and incomplete data annotation in public data sources. Furthermore, all the signatures proposed by these studies were based on risk scores summarized from gene expression levels, which are sensitive to experimental batch effects and risk compositions of the samples analyzed together. To avoid the above-mentioned problems, we carefully selected three qualified large datasets to develop and validate a signature consisting of three pairs of genes. The within-sample relative expression orderings of these gene pairs could robustly predict relapse risk of stage II CRC samples assessed in different laboratories. The transcriptional and functional analyses provided clear evidence that the high risk patients predicted by the proposed signature represent patients with micro-metastases.

Abstract
The aim of the present review is to survey the accumulated knowledge on the extracellular matrix (ECM) of tumors referring to its putative utility as therapeutic target. Following the traditional observation on the extensive morphological alteration in the tumor-affected tissue, the well-documented aberrant cellular regulation indicated that ECM components have an active role in tumor progression. However, due to the diverse functions and variable expression of proteoglycans, matrix proteins, and integrins, it is rather difficult to identify a comprehensive therapeutic target among ECM components. At present, the elevated level of heparanase and the prominent expression of αvβ5 integrin are considered as promising therapeutic targets. The inhibition of glycosaminoglycan offers another promising approach in the treatment of those tumors which are stimulated by proteoglycans. It can be ascertained that a selective ECM inhibitor would be a great asset to control metastasis driven by ECM-mediated signaling.

Abstract
Hyaluronan (HA) is an extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan (GAG) involved in cell motility, proliferation, tissue remodeling, development, differentiation, inflammation, tumor progression, and invasion and controls vessel thickening in cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the control of HA synthesis could permit the fine-tuning of cell behavior, but the mechanisms that regulate HA synthesis are largely unknown. Recent studies suggest that the availability of the nucleotide-sugar precursors has a critical role. Because the formation of UDP-sugars is a highly energetically demanding process, we have analyzed whether the energy status of the cell could control GAG production. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is the main ATP/AMP sensor of mammalian cells, and we mimicked an energy stress by treating human aortic smooth muscle cells (AoSMCs) with the AMPK activators 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-D-ribofuranoside and metformin. Under these conditions, HA synthesis, but not that of the other GAGs, was greatly reduced. We confirmed the inhibitory effect of AMPK using a specific inhibitor and knock-out cell lines. We found that AMPK phosphorylated Thr-110 of human HAS2, which inhibits its enzymatic activity. In contrast, the other two HAS isoenzymes (HAS1 and HAS3) were not modified by the kinase. The reduction of HA decreased the ability of AoSMCs to proliferate, migrate, and recruit immune cells, thereby reducing the pro-atherosclerotic AoSMC phenotype. Interestingly, such effects were not recovered by treatment with exogenous HA, suggesting that AMPK can block the pro-atherosclerotic signals driven by HA by interaction with its receptors.

Abstract
The stimulatory input of extracellular matrix (ECM) components has been implicated in the invasive properties of glioma cells. It has been demonstrated that undersulfation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) promoted by sodium chlorate (SC) treatment reduces C6 glioma cell proliferation and adhesion to ECM molecules, in-vitro. In the present study, the authors investigated the involvement of GAG undersulfation in glioma cell growth in the brain parenchyma. The in-vitro treatment of C6 cells with SC and subsequent intracerebral inoculation in vehicle containing SC resulted in a reduced proportion of animals bearing glioma and a reduced tumor mass diameter. It also promoted longer animal survival. Intracerebral inoculation of SC-treated C6 cells in vehicle without SC or the SC treatment after intracerebral implantation of untreated C6 cells did not result in any reduction of tumor growth. Alterations in clinical, hematological and behavioral parameters in the open field were observed near the point of death when tumors presented a greater size. The results suggest an important role of GAGs in glioma growth which possibly affects cell proliferation and/or interactions with the normal tissue environment.

Abstract
Stem cell mimicry of cancer cells has been known for a long time and is considered to be responsible for ectopic gene expressions. The stem cell characteristics of tumor cells are shown to be involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition and in the phenomenon of vascular mimicry. Certain cancer types acquire a geno-phenotype closely resembling the platelets and express several megakaryocytic genes (adhesion receptors alpha IIb beta 3, thrombin receptor and PECAM/CD 31 and/or platelet-type 12-LOX) able to activate the coagulation cascade or the platelets themselves. Here we define these potentials as platelet mimicry of cancer cells typical of pancreatic, breast, prostate, colorectal and urogenital cancers and melanoma. Data all support that platelet mimicry of certain cancer types is an important factor in their hematogenous dissemination and provides an attractive therapeutic target. Besides the long-available preclinical data, clinical trials have only recently provided evidence that targeting platelet mimicry of cancers is an efficient way to prevent tumor progression. The systematic discovery of the markers of platelet mimicry in various cancer types and their molecular targeting may provide new supportive therapeutic modalities for the management of the progressing disease.

Abstract
Therapy of tumor progression and the metastatic disease is the biggest challenge of clinical oncology. Discovery of the diverse molecular pathways behind this complex disease outlined an approach to better treatment strategies. The development of combined cytotoxic treatment protocols has produced promising results but no breakthrough in the clinical management of metastatic disease. The multiple - specific and non-specific pathways and cellular targets of tumor progression are outlined in this review. Such an approach, individually designed for various cancer types, may have a better chance to treat or even cure cancer patients with progressive disease.

Abstract
Understanding the details of the molecular mechanism of tumor dissemination revealed that several proteoglycan species are involved in the process but their role can be described as Janus-faced. One level of proteoglycan alterations is at the expression of their genes coding for the core protein. Characteristically, in progressing tumors two patterns emerged: loss or neoexpression of surface proteoglycans (PG) depending on the initial expression pattern of the cell type of origin. The situation is similarly complex concerning the changes of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) of the PG during tumor progression. This is due to the fact that the majority of PGs involved is hybrid molecule meaning that their core protein can be glycanated both with chondroitin and heparan sulfate. However, such an alteration in glycanation of PG may fundamentally change the function of the molecule, especially the one operating at the cell surface. Among the extracellular PGs, decorin emerged as inhibitor of progression while perlecan as a promoter of the process. Analysis of the available data indicate that during metastatization tumor cells must express at least one cell surface HSPG species from the syndecan-glypican-CD44v3 group. Furthermore, the HS-chain of these proteoglycan(s) carry important molecular signatures (suphution or epimerization patterns). Experimental data suggest that tumor cell surface heparan sulfate (PG) may provide a target for specific anti-metastatic interventions.

Abstract
The progression of bladder cancer to invasive disease is highly dependent on its ability to penetrate basement membrane of urothelium. Studies on diabetic nephropathy have shown a reduction in proteoglycan content of the glomerular basement membrane. Based on the well-known fact that proteoglycans are one of the main components of basement membrane and extracellular matrix we assessed the relationship between diabetes mellitus, bladder cancer incidence and its behavior. These studies include 252 patients with microscopically confirmed transitional cell carcinoma of bladder, and 549 patients with other urological disorders who served as controls. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus in each group was assessed. The group of patients suffering from transitional cell carcinoma was divided according to etiological risk factors such as cigarette smoking, diabetes and patients that were non-smokers and did not suffer from diabetes mellitus. We assessed the features of bladder cancer behavior in each group. Logistic regression model estimation for statistical analysis was used, with transitional cell carcinoma as a dependent binary variable and age, sexes smoking and diabetes as independent variables. Statistical significance was considered at two levels: p <or=0.001 and p <or=0.05. Odds ratio (OR) adjusted to age, sex, cigarette smoking, diabetes mellitus and 95% Confidence Interval (CI) were calculated for TCC. In the TCC group 22.2% of the patients suffered from diabetes mellitus. In the control group 10.38% suffered from diabetes mellitus. Logistic regression analysis, OR and 95% CI showed a statistically significant relationship between diabetes and TCC. These data are comparable only with smoking (OR 2.3; 95% CI 1.6 3.5 and OR 1.58; 95% CI 1.08 2.4 correspondingly). Based on these data we suggest that diabetes mellitus may be considered an etiological risk factor for bladder cancer development.

4-Deoxy analogues of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-glucose and 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-xylose were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of glycoconjugate biosynthesis. Methyl 2-acetamido-2,4-dideoxy-beta-D-xylo-hexopyranoside (11) showed a reduction in [3H]GlcN and [14C]Leu incorporation into hepatocyte cellular glycoconjugates by 89 and 88%, of the control cells, respectively, at 20 mM, whereas the free sugars, 2-acetamido-2,4-dideoxy-alpha,beta-D-xylo-hexopyranoses (15), showed a reduction of [3H]GlcN and [14C]Leu incorporation by 75 and 64%, respectively, at 20 mM. The acetylated analogues of 11 and 15, namely methyl 2-acetamido-3,6-di-O-acetyl-2,4-dideoxy-beta-D-xylo-hexopyranoside and 2-acetamido-1,3,6-tri-O-acetyl-2,4-dideoxy-alpha,beta-D-xylo-hexopyra noses, showed a greater inhibition of [3H]GlcN and [14C]Leu incorporation at 1 mM compared with their non-acetylated counterparts, but were toxic to hepatocytes at concentrations of 10 and 20 mM. Corresponding derivatives of 2-acetamido-2,4-dideoxy-L-threo-pentopyranose showed no biological effect up to 20 mM, suggesting that the C-6 substituent is important for the biological activity.

Abstract
The gastric mucosal surface was observed using the magnifying fibergastroscope (FGS-ML), and the fine gastric mucosal patterns, which were even smaller than one unit of gastric area, were examined at a magnification of about 30. For simplicification, we classified these patterns by magnifying endoscopy in the following ways; FP, FIP, FSP, SP and MP, modifying Yoshii's classification under the dissecting microscope. The FIP, which was found to have round and long elliptical gastric pits, is a new addition to our endoscopic classification. The relationship between the FIP and the intermediate zone was evaluated by superficial and histological studies of surgical and biopsy specimens. The width of the band of FIP seems to be related to the severity of atrophic gastritis. Also, the transformation of FP to FIP was assessed by comparing specimens taken from the resected and residual parts of the stomach, respectively. Moreover, it appears that severe gastritis occurs in the gastric mucosa which shows a FIP. Therefore, we consider that the FIP indicates the position of the atrophic border.
