Abstract
Advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) has poor but heterogeneous prognosis. Apart from Ki67 index, no prognostic or predictive biomarker has been validated in advanced ACC, so far. We aimed at analyzing expression of a large panel of proteins involved in known altered pathways in ACC (cell cycle, Wnt/ß-catenin, methylation) to identify and prioritize potential prognostic or predictive parameters metastatic ACC population. We conducted a retrospective multicentric study. Overall survival (OS) and partial response according to RECIST 1.1 were primary endpoints. TMA was set up and 16 markers were analyzed. Modified ENSAT and GRAS parameters were characterized for prognostic adjustment. Results: We included 66 patients with a mean age at metastatic diagnosis of 48.7 ± 15.5 years. Median survival was 27.8 months. After adjustment to mENSAT-GRAS parameters, p53 and PDxK were prognostic of OS. No potential biomarker has been identified as predictive factor of response. We identified for the first time P53 as an independent prognostic marker of metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma after mENSAT-GRAS parameter adjustment. Prognostic impact of Wnt/ß-catenin alterations was not confirmed in this cohort of metastatic ACC.

piR-39980 mediates doxorubicin resistance in fibrosarcoma by regulating drug accumulation and DNA repair. Commun Biol 2021; 4:1312. [PMID: 34799689 PMCID: PMC8605029 DOI: 10.1038/s42003-021-02844-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Accepted: 11/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Resistance to doxorubicin (DOX) is an obstacle to successful sarcoma treatment and a cause of tumor relapse, with the underlying molecular mechanism still unknown. PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) have been shown to enhance patient outcomes in cancers. However, there are few or no reports on piRNAs affecting chemotherapy in cancers, including fibrosarcoma. The current study aims to investigate the relationship between piR-39980 and DOX resistance and the underlying mechanisms. We reveal that piR-39980 is less expressed in DOX-resistant HT1080 (HT1080/DOX) fibrosarcoma cells. Our results show that inhibition of piR-39980 in parental HT1080 cells induces DOX resistance by attenuating intracellular DOX accumulation, DOX-induced apoptosis, and anti-proliferative effects. Its overexpression in HT1080/DOX cells, on the other hand, increases DOX sensitivity by promoting intracellular DOX accumulation, DNA damage, and apoptosis. The dual-luciferase reporter assay indicates that piR-39980 negatively regulates RRM2 and CYP1A2 via direct binding to their 3'UTRs. Furthermore, overexpressing RRM2 induces DOX resistance of HT1080 cells by rescuing DOX-induced DNA damage by promoting DNA repair, whereas CYP1A2 confers resistance by decreasing intracellular DOX accumulation, which piR-39980 restores. This study reveals that piR-39980 could reduce fibrosarcoma resistance to DOX by modulating RRM2 and CYP1A2, implying that piRNA can be used in combination with DOX.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to discover potential topoisomerase (topo) targeting anticancer agents. Novel series of hydroxylated and halogenated(-F, -Cl, and -CF3) 2,4-diaryl benzofuro[3,2-b]pyridin-7-ols were systematically designed and synthesized by faster, economic, and environmentally friendly l-proline catalyzed and microwave-assisted one pot reaction method. The synthesized compounds were assessed for topo I and IIα inhibitory and anti-proliferative activities. The in vitroevaluation displayed that most of the compounds have selective topo IIα inhibitoryactivity as well as selectivity towards T47D human cancer cell line. Structure-activity relationship study suggested that the introduction of additional hydroxyl functionality at 7-positon of benzofuro[3,2-b]pyridine skeleton is crucial for selective topo IIα inhibitory activity. Placement of phenolic moiety on the 4-position of the tricyclic system imparts better topo IIα inhibitory and anti-proliferative activity.

J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2019; 104:5948-5956. [PMID: 31361313 DOI: 10.1210/jc.2019-00915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2019] [Accepted: 07/22/2019] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy with a dismal prognosis. Two landmark trials published in 2007 and 2012 showed efficacy for adjuvant mitotane in resectable ACC and etoposide/doxorubicin/cisplatin plus mitotane for unresectable ACC, respectively. In this study, we used the National Cancer Database to examine whether treatment patterns and outcomes changed after these trials. METHODS The National Cancer Database was used to examine treatment patterns and survival in patients diagnosed with ACC from 2006 to 2015. Treatment modalities were compared within that group and with a historical cohort (1985 to 2005). χ2 tests were performed, and Cox proportional hazards models were created. RESULTS From 2006 to 2015, 2752 patients were included; 38% of patients (1042) underwent surgery alone, and 31% (859) underwent surgery with adjuvant therapy. Overall 5-year survival rates for all stages after resection were 43% (median, 41 months) in the contemporary cohort and 39% (median, 32 months) in the historical cohort. After 2007, patients who underwent surgery were more likely to receive adjuvant chemotherapy (P = 0.005), and 5-year survival with adjuvant chemotherapy improved (41% vs 25%; P = 0.02). However, survival did not improve in patients with unresectable tumors after 2011 compared with 2006 to 2011 (P = 0.79). Older age, tumor size ≥10 cm, distant metastases, and positive margins were associated with lower survival after resection (hazard ratio range: 1.39 to 3.09; P < 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Since 2007, adjuvant therapy has been used more frequently in patients with resected ACC, and survival for these patients has improved but remains low. More effective systemic therapies for patients with ACC, especially those in advanced stages, are desperately needed.
