Abstract
Background Poria acid (PAC) is a triterpene compound found in Poria cocos, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The current study aims to explore the therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of PAC on the migration and proliferation of human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells as well as tumor growth in animal model. Methods Cell viability and proliferative capacity of normal renal cells and RCC cells were investigated by MTT assay. In addition, 786-O cells were divided into four groups and treated with different concentrations of PAC (0, 20, 40, and 60 μM) for 48 h. Cell scratch test and cell invasion assay were performed to evaluate the effects of PAC on the invasion and migration of RCC cells, respectively. The effects of PAC on apoptosis of RCC cells and expression levels of PI3K/Akt/NF-kB signaling pathway-related biomarkers were investigated using TUNEL staining and Western blotting methods, respectively. Effects of PAC on the inhibitory activity of RCC tumor in mice were evaluated in a 786-O CDX model. Results The study found that PAC inhibited the viability of RCC cells in a dose-dependent manner, as demonstrated by in vitro cell assays (p < 0.05). However, PAC showed no significant inhibitory effect on normal renal cells (p > 0.05). PAC also significantly inhibited the migration and invasion of RCC via EMT/MMP signaling pathways (p < 0.05). Immunofluorescence and immunoblotting results showed that PAC induced the apoptosis of RCC, which was accompanied by changes in the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins (p < 0.05). Moreover, PAC significantly downregulated the PI3K/Akt/NF-kB signaling pathway in a concentration-dependent manner (p < 0.05). The effect of PAC on RCC apoptosis was dramatically reversed by 740Y-P (PI3K agonist) (p < 0.05) but significantly enhanced in the presence of LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor) (p < 0.05). The results of in vivo experiment also demonstrated that the antitumor activity of PAC was achieved by affecting the PI3K/Akt/NF-kB signaling pathway. Conclusions PAC can effectively suppress the proliferation, invasion and migration of RCC cells, and exhibit anti-tumor effects in RCC model by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/NF-kB signaling pathway.

Qu H, Wang K, Hu B. Meta analysis of clinical prognosis of radiofrequency ablation versus partial nephrectomy in the treatment of early renal cell carcinoma. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1105877. [PMID: 37182152 PMCID: PMC10166822 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1105877] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To systematically review the differences between radiofrequency ablation and partial nephrectomy in patients with early-stage renal cell carcinoma, and to provide evidence-based medical evidence for the choice of surgery for patients with early-stage renal cell carcinoma. Methods According to the search strategy recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration, Chinese databases such as CNKI, VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodicals Database (VIP), and Wanfang Full-text Database were searched with Chinese search terms. And PubMed and MEDLINE as databases for English literature retrieval. Retrieve the relevant literature on renal cell carcinoma surgical methods published before May 2022, and further screen radiofrequency ablation and partial nephrectomy in patients with renal cell carcinoma The relevant literature on the application is analyzed. RevMan5.3 software was used for heterogeneity test and combined statistical analysis, sensitivity analysis, and subgroup analysis. Analysis, and draw forest plot, using Stata software Begger quantitative assessment of publication bias. Results A total of 11 articles were involved, including 2958 patients. According to the Jadad scale, 2 articles were of low quality, and the remaining 9 articles were of high quality. Results of this study demonstrates the advantages of radiofrequency ablation in early-stage renal cell carcinoma. The results of this meta-analysis showed that compared with partial nephrectomy, there was significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rate between radiofrequency ablation and partial nephrectomy and there was a statistically significant difference between the two surgical methods in the 5-year relapse free survival rate of early renal cell carcinoma. Conclusion 1. Compared with partial nephrectomy, the 5-year relapse-free survival rate, the 5-year cancer specific survival rate and the overall 5-year survival rate were higher in the radiofrequency ablation group. 2. Compared with partial nephrectomy, there was no significant difference in the postoperative local tumor recurrence rate of radiofrequency ablation. 3. Compared with partial resection, radiofrequency ablation is more beneficial to patients with renal cell carcinoma.

Percutaneous Thermal Ablation for Renal Tumors in Patients with Birt–Hogg–Dubé Syndrome. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14204969. [PMID: 36291753 PMCID: PMC9599652 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14204969] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BHD syndrome is characterized by an increased risk of bilateral and multifocal renal cell carcinoma (RCCs), but is rarely metastatic. Our report aims to analyze the outcome of patients with BHD syndrome who underwent percutaneous thermal ablation (TA). The present report included six BHD syndrome patients (five men) with a mean age of 66 ± 11 (SD) years who had a proven germline FLCN gene mutation and underwent TA for a renal tumor. Nineteen renal tumors (median two tumors per patient; range: 1–3), including seven chromophobe RCCs, five clear-cell RCCs, four papillary RCCs, two clear-cell papillary RCC, and one hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumor were treated in 14 ablation sessions. The mean size of the tumors was 21 ± 11 (SD) mm (median: 20 mm; interquartile range (IQR): 14–25 mm) for a mean volume of 7 ± 11 (SD) mL (median: 3; IQR: 1–5 mL). Technical success was achieved in all ablation sessions (primary success rate, 100%). The procedure was well tolerated under conscious sedation with no significant Clavien–Dindo complication (grade 2, 3, 4). All patients were alive with no distant metastasis during a median follow-up period of 74 months (range: 33–83 months). No local tumor progression was observed. The mean decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate was 8 mL/min/1.73 m2. No patients required dialysis or renal transplantation. In this case series, percutaneous TA appeared as a safe and efficient nephron-sparing treatment for treating RCCs associated with BHD syndrome, even in the case of advanced chronic kidney disease.
