BMC Cancer 2020; 20:192. [PMID: 32143591 PMCID: PMC7060603 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-020-6699-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2019] [Accepted: 02/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Altered glycosylation associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is well documented. However, few reports have investigated the association between dedifferentiation and glycosylation. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze glycosylation associated with dedifferentiation of HCC within the same nodule and to investigate glycosyltransferase related to the glycosylation. Methods We analyzed resected HCC specimens (n = 50) using lectin microarray to comprehensively and sensitively analyze glycan profiles, and identify changes to glycosylation between well- and moderately-differentiated components within the same nodule. Moreover, we performed immunohistochemical staining of mannosyl(α-1,3-)-glycoprotein β-1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (MGAT1), which is an essential glycosyltransferase that converts high-mannose glycans to complex- or hybrid-type N-glycans. Results Four lectins from Narcissus pseudonarcissus agglutinin (NPA), Concanavalin A, Galanthus nivalis agglutinin, and Calystegia sepium agglutinin were significantly elevated in moderately-differentiated components of HCC compared with well-differentiated components, and all lectins showed binding specificity to high-mannose glycans. Therefore, these structures were represented to a greater extent in moderately-differentiated components than in well-differentiated ones. Immunohistochemical staining revealed significantly increased NPA expression and decreased MGAT1 expression in moderately-differentiated components. Low MGAT1 expression in moderately-differentiated components of tumors was associated with intrahepatic metastasis and had tendency for poor prognosis. Conclusion Dedifferentiation of well-differentiated HCC is associated with an increase in high-mannose glycans. MGAT1 may play a role in the dedifferentiation of HCC.

Pure laparoscopic liver resection for giant liver hemangioma with extrahepatic growth based on preoperative 3-dimensional simulation: A case report. Surg Case Rep 2019; 5:51. [PMID: 30937826 PMCID: PMC6443745 DOI: 10.1186/s40792-019-0607-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2018] [Accepted: 03/18/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Performing laparoscopic liver resection for giant hemangiomas is challenging, and careful preoperative planning is essential. Controlling intraoperative bleeding and handling surgical instruments within a limited workspace is necessary. Case presentation In the present case, the patient was a 38-year-old woman diagnosed with a 16-cm giant liver hemangioma in segment 5/6, with extrahepatic growth. Preoperative three-dimensional simulations for port placement and the laparoscopic view from the left upper abdomen were performed to complete the pure laparoscopic liver resection. The laparoscopic resection was then safely performed on the same way. Conclusions Pure laparoscopic resection could be applied to giant hemangiomas with extrahepatic growth, and the preoperative three-dimensional simulation of port placement and the laparoscopic view might be helpful when the intraabdominal workplace is restricted.
