Mechanisms of chronic alcohol exposure-induced aggressiveness in cellular model of HCC and recovery after alcohol withdrawal. Cell Mol Life Sci 2022; 79:366. [PMID: 35713728 PMCID: PMC9205837 DOI: 10.1007/s00018-022-04387-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2021] [Revised: 04/28/2022] [Accepted: 05/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Alcohol-related liver disease is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, accounting for 30% of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases and HCC-specific deaths. However, the knowledge on mechanisms by which alcohol consumption leads to cancer progression and its aggressiveness is limited. Better understanding of the clinical features and the mechanisms of alcohol-induced HCC are of critical importance for prevention and the development of novel treatments. Early stage Huh-7 and advanced SNU449 liver cancer cell lines were subjected to chronic alcohol exposure (CAE), at different doses for 6 months followed by 1-month alcohol withdrawal period. ADH activity and ALDH expression were much lower in SNU449 compared with Huh-7 cells and at the 270 mM dose, CAE decreased cell viability by about 50% and 80%, respectively, in Huh-7 and SNU449 cells but induced mortality only in Huh-7 cells. Thus, Huh-7 may be more vulnerable to ethanol toxicity because of the higher levels of acetaldehyde. CAE induced a dose-dependent increase in cell migration and invasion and also in the expression of cancer stem cells markers (CD133, CD44, CD90). CAE in Huh-7 cells selectively activated ERK1/2 and inhibited GSK3β signaling pathways. Most of the changes induced by CAE were reversed after alcohol withdrawal. Interestingly, we confirmed the increase in CD133 mRNA levels in the tumoral tissue of patients with ethanol-related HCC compared to other HCC etiologies. Our results may explain the benefits observed in epidemiological studies showing a significant increase of overall survival in abstinent compared with non-abstinent patients.

Mujcic A, Blankers M, Yildirim D, Boon B, Engels R. Cancer survivors' views on digital support for smoking cessation and alcohol moderation: a survey and qualitative study. BMC Public Health 2021; 21:1763. [PMID: 34579678 PMCID: PMC8477484 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-021-11785-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 08/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Digital interventions may provide low-threshold support for smoking cessation (SC) and alcohol moderation (AM) to the growing population of cancer survivors. The objective was to explore preconditions of successful AM and SC digital interventions for cancer survivors. METHODS Using a multi-method approach we conducted a survey (n = 240), a qualitative study consisting of four focus groups (n = 15) and semi-structured interviews with Dutch cancer survivors (n = 8). To help interpretation of our results we interviewed experts in the field of eHealth and cancer survivors (n = 6) and we organized an expert meeting (n = 7). Qualitative data were analysed using the Framework approach and were double-coded by two coders. RESULTS Survey results show the majority of drinkers had not previously considered AM (n = 158, 84.9%), often because they deemed their alcohol use to be non-problematic. All current smokers in the survey had considered SC before. In focus groups and interviews it became clear that SC efforts did not always stem from their own willingness to quit smoking, but originated from a wish to please their social environment. Main themes to be addressed in digital SC and AM that emerged from the interviews and focus groups, centred on the different ways of identification as cancer survivors, need for autonomy, differential beliefs about SC and AM, and the importance of a positive, non-patronizing tone-of-voice. Several specific preferences for digital interventions were formulated, although some cancer survivors prefer no support or face-to-face contact. CONCLUSIONS Cancer survivors are a diverse group with diverse preferences for AM and SC support. Digital AM and SC interventions for cancer survivors are perceived to be of value by some, especially when they incorporate a positive, non-judgemental and non-patronizing tone-of-voice, address concerns specifically relevant to cancer survivors, offer possibilities for personalization, and emphasize autonomy throughout. To encourage AM specifically, problem recognition and awareness of the health benefits of AM should be improved.

Abstract
Le tabac est un facteur de risque majeur du cancer des voies aérodigestives supérieures. Le sevrage tabagique permet d’améliorer l’état de santé du patient, son taux de survie, et de diminuer les comorbidités et le risque d’autres cancers. La recommandation du sevrage tabagique est donc importante. Cependant, le taux d’arrêt du tabac après l’annonce de ce cancer reste faible. Il est donc nécessaire de comprendre les raisons d’une poursuite ou de l’arrêt de la pratique tabagique après l’annonce de la maladie. Dans cet objectif nous avons réalisé une enquête qualitative au sein d’un centre de lutte contre le cancer. Après des observations de consultation, nous avons rencontré des patients afin de recueillir leur expérience, leurs usages et pratiques, et ainsi leurs représentations du tabac malgré la maladie. Ces données qualitatives nous ont permis de mieux comprendre les différentes raisons qui permettent à certains patients d’envisager ou bien de débuter un processus de sevrage, et ceux pour qui l’arrêt définitif du tabac est difficile à envisager même à la suite de l’annonce du cancer.

Abstract
L’accompagnement addictologique des consommations de tabac et d’alcool est une exigence de la qualité de la prise en charge en cancérologie. Peu de programmes spécifiques sont proposés sur ce sujet. Cet article présente le programme STAR conçu à partir des besoins éducatifs de patients traités pour un cancer. Il repose sur les théories de l’autodétermination, de l’implémentation des intentions et le concept de perception du contrôle personnel issus des sciences humaines et sociales. Il comporte quatre modules éducatifs personnalisés et intégrés au parcours de soins en cancérologie.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Five French oncology institutions had participated in a funded study aiming at implementing an Evidence-Based Practice tool (PAM-13), which allowed nurses to measure the level of activation of the patient to support his or her own empowerment in the cancer care pathway. The purpose of this ancillary study is to (i) describe the caregivers' perceptions of addictions and their management concurrently with cancer treatment, (ii) explore the role that Motivational Interviewing techniques can play. METHODS 15 individual semi-structured interviews of caregivers were performed, using the Theoretical Domains Framework for the interview guide. Qualitative data were analyzed inductively, in a thematic analysis. The COREQ guided the reporting of this qualitative study. RESULTS Views on addictions influence the way caregivers manage patients suffering from unresolved issues of addiction. Care is mainly focused on the pathology (cancer-centered) and strictly curative. When practiced, Motivational Interviewing is patient-centered, fostering the patient's empowerment on the cancer care pathway. CONCLUSIONS The dissemination of Motivational Interviewing techniques in current practices in oncology, both in terms of doctors and nursing teams, would enable improvement to the management of addictions on the cancer care pathway, by deploying a patient-centered approach. This new paradigm of care would support the empowerment of patients enrolled in the cancer care pathway and promote better communication between caregivers and patients. Hence, a paradigm shift is essential. Motivational Interviewing techniques could provide a caring approach that promotes communication between the patient and the caregiver and also supports the former's empowerment. This research suggests the need to adapt the cancer care pathway in order to integrate the necessary care for patients who concomitantly suffer from unresolved addictive disorders.

Surgery or Radiotherapy of the Primary Tumor in T1-2 Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Resectable N3 Nodes: A Multicenter GETTEC Study. Ann Surg Oncol 2019; 26:3673-3680.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of advanced nodal (N3) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) is poor. We investigated whether surgery or radiotherapy of early (T1-2) primary stage HSNCC is preferable to limit the overall morbidity after upfront neck dissection (uND) for N3 disease. METHODS This retrospective multicentric Groupe d'Étude des Tumeurs de la Tête Et du Cou study included patients undergoing uND and surgery or radiotherapy of their primary. Prognostic factors were evaluated using propensity score matching to account for biases in performing surgery depending on primary site and stage. RESULTS Of 189 T1-2, N3 HNSCC patients, 70 (37.0%) underwent uND: 42 with surgery of their primary and 28 with radiotherapy only. Radiotherapy alone was more frequent in patients with hypopharyngeal primaries. All local (N = 3) and regional (N = 10) relapses (included 2 locoregional relapses) occurred within the first 2 years. There were 16 distant metastatic failures. Five-year locoregional relapse and survival incidences were 15.7% and 66.5% and were similar regardless of the treatment of the primary. The overall morbidity rate was 65.2% and was similar after weighting by the inverse propensity score (p = 0.148). The only prognostic factor for morbidity was the radicality of the uND. Prolonged parenteral feeding was not more frequent in patients only irradiated to their primary (p = 0.118). Prolonged tracheostomy was more frequent after surgery of the primary. CONCLUSIONS In patients with T1-2, N3 HNSCC undergoing uND, radiotherapy and surgery of the primary yield similar oncological outcomes. Morbidity was related to the extent of neck dissection.
