They are regarded as having relatively uniform histology, although their potential for malignant behavior varies. Despite a strong promoting role of tumor-infiltrating innate immune cells in neoplastic progression, the presence of immune cells in GISTs has not yet been studied. METHODS: A total of 47 untreated, c-kit-positive primary GISTs were immunohistochemically analyzed to distinguish histiocytic and dendritic cells (DCs) (KIM-1P, fascin, and CD68) from cells of lymphoplasmacellular origin (CD3, CD20, and CD56). Furthermore, the gene expression of proinflammatory cytokines was characterized by real-time, reverse transcription-PCR analysis of total RNA extracted from frozen tissue samples. RESULTS: KIM-1P+ cells were the dominant immune cells (851+/-295 cells/mm2) and were scattered among the tumor cells. Most of the KIM-1P+ cells showed cellular projections characteristic of DCs. Fascin positivity identified a subgroup of DCs. In comparison to KIM-1P+ cells, there were significantly fewer CD68+ macrophages (196+/-217 cells/mm2). CD3+ T cells were the dominant lymphocytes (201+/-331 cells/mm2), whereas B cells (60+/-126 cells/mm2) were few. On transcriptional level, a concomitant gene expression of cytokines for the classical acute phase cytokines TNF-alpha and IL-6 was missing, thus supporting the rather innate status of immune cells. CONCLUSION: GISTs contain, beside T lymphocytes, a high number of monocyte-derived cells, which we suggest are, at least in part, immature DCs. Together with the lack of gene expression of inflammatory cytokines in tumor tissue our results point to a possible 'symbiotic relationship' between the tumor and the local immune cells."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1097/MEG.0b013e3282f3a403"],["dc.identifier.isi","000257628200013"],["dc.identifier.pmid","18334877"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/6331"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/91538"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Lippincott Williams & Wilkins"],["dc.relation.issn","0954-691X"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Universitätsmedizin Göttingen"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject.ddc","610"],["dc.subject.mesh","Adult"],["dc.subject.mesh","Aged"],["dc.subject.mesh","Aged, 80 and over"],["dc.subject.mesh","Antigens, CD"],["dc.subject.mesh","Antigens, CD3"],["dc.subject.mesh","Antigens, Differentiation, Myelomonocytic"],["dc.subject.mesh","Cell Communication"],["dc.subject.mesh","Cell Transformation, Neoplastic"],["dc.subject.mesh","Cytokines"],["dc.subject.mesh","Dendritic Cells"],["dc.subject.mesh","Female"],["dc.subject.mesh","Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors"],["dc.subject.mesh","Humans"],["dc.subject.mesh","Male"],["dc.subject.mesh","Middle Aged"],["dc.subject.mesh","Phenotype"],["dc.subject.mesh","Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-kit"],["dc.subject.mesh","Stromal Cells"],["dc.title","Immune cells in primary gastrointestinal stromal tumors"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC WOS2009Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.artnumber","218"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","BMC Cancer"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","9"],["dc.contributor.author","Cameron, Silke"],["dc.contributor.author","Huenerbein, Diana"],["dc.contributor.author","Mansuroglu, Tuemen"],["dc.contributor.author","Armbrust, Thomas"],["dc.contributor.author","Scharf, Jens-Gerd"],["dc.contributor.author","Schwoerer, Harald"],["dc.contributor.author","Fuezesi, Laszlo"],["dc.contributor.author","Ramadori, Giuliano"],["dc.date.accessioned","2018-11-07T08:28:01Z"],["dc.date.available","2018-11-07T08:28:01Z"],["dc.date.issued","2009"],["dc.description.abstract","Background: The treatment of the primary tumor in advanced metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) is still a matter of discussion. Little attention has thus far been paid to the endoscopically observable changes of the primary in non-curatively resectable stage IV disease. Methods: 20 patients [14 men, 6 women, median age 67 (39-82) years] were observed after initial diagnosis of non-curatively resectable metastasized symptomatic (83%) or asymptomatic (17%) CRC, from June 2002 to April 2009. If necessary, endoscopic tumor debulking was performed. 5-FU based chemotherapy was given immediately thereafter. In 10 patients, chemotherapy was combined with antibody therapy. Results: Response of the primary was observed in all patients. Local symptoms were treated endoscopically whenever necessary (obstruction or bleeding), and further improved after chemotherapy was started: Four patients showed initial complete endoscopic disappearance of the primary. In an additional 6 patients, only adenomatous tissue was histologically detected. In both these groups, two patients revealed local tumor relapse after interruption of therapy. Local tumor regression or stable disease was achieved in the remaining 10 patients. 15 patients died during the observation time. In 13 cases, death was related to metastatic disease progression. The mean overall survival time was 19.6 (3-71) months. No complications due to the primary were observed.

GIST is now a well-known disease entity and a paradigm for targeted therapies in malignant diseases. A now 74-year-old patient presented with recurrence of a primary duodenal GIST (initial diagnosis and primary resection in 1998; diameter 10 cm, KIT exon 11 mutation, PM V559D) and liver metastasis after a second surgical resection was performed in 2000. Conventional chemotherapy with adriamycin and ifosfamide failed to control growth of the relapsed tumor and liver metastasis. In July 2001, compassionate use of imatinib was started. Tumor regression was observed at continuous follow-ups (every 2 months for the first 6 months, and 6 months thereafter) and persisted until now. The patient's physical performance has remained in good condition. Side effects consisted of periorbital edema and sudden muscle cramps of toes and fingers, pain of bones and joints, an intentional tremor, a paler color of the skin, as well as a slight anemia. Imatinib is the first orally administered anticancer drug. Our case shows that a sustained response is possible with continuous therapy over a long time, if the drug is well tolerated.

Despite this breakthrough in the treatment of GIST, resistance against imatinib has been reported to be as high as 50% after the first 2 years of treatment. Aim Outcome of 13 consecutive patients with relapsed or metastasized GIST who were treated with imatinib was analyzed. Results Mean duration of treatment was 53.5 months. Four patients developed progressive disease and died after a mean treatment time of 31 months in spite of increase of imatinib dosages to 800 mg daily.

Two of the metastases had a separate secondary mutation in KIT exon 14 and 17, respectively, while the largest cystic metastatic lesion had no other mutation. Imatinib was then increased to a daily dose of 800 mg, and in April 2007 the treatment was changed to sunitinib. Fifty-two months after initial diagnosis, the patient died of liver failure.

To develop strategies for overcoming combination of treatment. METHODS: Five colonic cell-lines were investigated: DLD-1 with KRAS (G13D) mutation, HT 29 and Colo 205 with BRAF (V600E) mutation as well as the wild type (Wt) cell-lines Caco2 and Colo-320. DLD-1 (KRAS), HT-29 (BRAF) and Caco2 (Wt) cell lines were treated with cytokines (TNF alpha 50 ng, IL-1 beta 1 ng and IFN. 50 ng) and harvested at different time points (1-24 h). KRAS inhibition was performed by the siRNA-approach. Two colorectal cancer cells DLD-1 and Caco2 were used for KRAS inhibition. About 70% confluency were confirmed before transfection with small interferring RNA (siRNA) oligonucleotides. All the synthetic siRNA sequences were designed in our laboratory. Total RNA and protein was isolated from the cells for RT-PCR and Western blotting. Densitometry of the Western blotting was analyzed with the Image J software (NIH). Results are shown as mean +/- SD. RESULTS: RT-PCR analysis in non-stimulated cells showed a low basal expression of TNFa and IL-1 beta in the DLD-1 KRAS -mutated cell-line, compared to Caco2 wild type. No detection was found for IL-6 and IFN. in any of the studied cell lines. In contrast, pro-angiogenic chemokines (CXCL1, CXCL8) showed a high constitutive expression in the mutated cell-lines DLD-1 (KRAS), HT-29 and Colo205 (BRAF), compared to wild type (Caco2). The anti-angiogenic chemokine (CXCL10) showed a high basal expression in wild-type, compared to mutated cell-lines. KRAS down-regulation by siRNA showed a significant decrease in CXCL1 and CXCL10 gene expression in the DLD-1 (KRAS) cell-line in comparison to wild type (Caco2) at 72 h after KRAS silencing. In contrast, the specific KRAS inhibition resulted in an up-regulation of CXCL1 and CXCL10. The results of our study show a higher expression of pro-angiogenic chemokines at basal level in mutated cell-lines, which was further increased by cytokine treatment. CONCLUSION: To summarize, basal chemokine gene expression for pro-angiogenic chemokines was high in mutated as compared to wild type cell-lines. This reflects the likely existence of a different microenvironment in tumours consistent of wild type or mutated cells. This may help to rationalize the choice of molecular targets for suitable therapeutic investigation in clinical studies. c 2014 Baishideng Publishing Group Co., Limited.
