    Abstract The incidence of cancer is high worldwide, and biological factors such as viruses and bacteria play an important role in the occurrence of cancer. Helicobacter pylori, human papillomavirus, hepatitis B viruses and other organisms have been identified as carcinogens. Cancer is a disease driven by the accumulation of genome changes. Viruses can directly cause cancer by changing the genetic composition of the human body, such as cervical cancer caused by human papillomavirus DNA integration and liver cancer caused by hepatitis B virus DNA integration. Recently, bacterial DNA has been found around cancers such as pancreatic cancer, breast cancer and colorectal cancer, and the idea that bacterial genes can also be integrated into the human genome has become a hot topic. In the present paper, we reviewed the latest phenomenon and specific integration mechanism of bacterial DNA into the human genome. Based on these findings, we also suggest three sources of bacterial DNA in cancers: bacterial DNA around human tissues, free bacterial DNA in bacteremia or sepsis, and endogenous bacterial DNA in the human genome. Clarifying the theory that bacterial DNA integrates into the human genome can provide a new perspective for cancer prevention and treatment.

    Abstract Background: Gut microbiota dysbiosis involved in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer (CRC). The characteristics of enterotypes in CRC development have not been determined.
    Objective: To characterize the gut microbiota of healthy, adenoma, and CRC subjects based on enterotype.
    Methods: The 16 S rRNA sequencing data from 315 newly sequenced individuals and three previously published datasets were collected, providing total data for 367 healthy, 320 adenomas, and 415 CRC subjects. Enterotypes were analyzed for all samples, and differences in microbiota composition across subjects with different disease states in each enterotype were determined. The predictive values of a random forest classifier based on enterotype in distinguishing healthy, adenoma, and CRC subjects were evaluated and validated.
    Results: Subjects were classified into one of three enterotypes, namely, Bacteroide- (BA_E), Blautia- (BL_E), and Streptococcus- (S_E) dominated clusters. The taxonomic profiles of these three enterotypes differed among the healthy, adenoma, and CRC cohorts. BA_E group was enriched with Bacteroides and Blautia; BL_E group was enriched by Blautia and Coprococcus; S_E was enriched by Streptococcus and Ruminococcus. Relative abundances of these genera varying among the three human cohorts. In training and validation sets, the S_E cluster showed better performance in distinguishing among CRC patients, adenoma patients, and healthy controls, as well as between CRC and non-CRC individuals, than the other two clusters.
    Conclusion: This study provides the first evidence to indicate that changes in the microbial composition of enterotypes are associated with disease status, thereby highlighting the diagnostic potential of enterotypes in the treatment of adenoma and CRC.

    Abstract Background: Cholelithiasis is one of the most common disorders of hepatobiliary system. Gut bacteria may be involved in the process of gallstone formation and are therefore considered as potential targets for cholelithiasis prediction.
    Objective: To reveal the correlation between cholelithiasis and gut bacteria.
    Methods: Stool samples were collected from 100 cholelithiasis and 250 healthy individuals from Huzhou Central Hospital; The 16S rRNA of gut bacteria in the stool samples was sequenced using the third-generation Pacbio sequencing platform; Mothur v.1.21.1 was used to analyze the diversity of gut bacteria; Wilcoxon rank-sum test and linear discriminant analysis of effect sizes (LEfSe) were used to analyze differences in gut bacteria between patients suffering from cholelithiasis and healthy individuals; Chord diagram and Plot related heat maps were used to analyze the correlation between cholelithiasis and gut bacteria; Six machine algorithms were used to construct models to predict cholelithiasis.
    Results: There were differences in the abundance of gut bacteria between cholelithiasis and healthy individuals, but there were no differences in their community diversity. Increased abundance of Costridia, Escherichia flexneri, and Klebsiella pneumonae were found in cholelithiasis, while Bacteroidia, Phocaeicola, and Phocaeicola vulgatus were more abundant in healthy individuals. The top 4 bacteria that were most closely associated with cholelithiasis were Escherichia flexneri, Escherichia dysenteriae, Streptococcus salivarius and Escherichiadysenteriae. The cholelithiasis model based on CatBoost algorithm had the best prediction effect (sensitivity: 90.48%, specificity: 88.32%, AUC: 0.962).
    Conclusion: The identification of characteristic gut bacteria may provide new predictive targets for gallstone screening. As being screened by the predictive model, people at high risk of cholelithiasis can determine the need for further testing, thus enabling early warning of cholelithiasis.

    Abstract Background: Several studies have examined NCAPH2 methylation in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), but little is known of NCAPH2 methylation in subjective cognitive decline (SCD).
    Objective: To examine whether methylation of peripheral NCAPH2 are differentially changed at various phases of AD, and whether it could serve as a diagnostic biomarker for SCD.
    Methods: A total of 40 AD patients, 52 aMCI patients, 148 SCD patients, and 193 cognitively normal controls (NCs) were recruited in the current case-control study. Besides, 54 cognitively normal individuals have received amyloid positron emission tomography (amyloid PET) scans. Using bisulfite pyrosequencing method, we measured blood DNA methylation in the NCAPH2 gene promoter.
    Results: The main outcomes were: 1) For SCD, there was no significant difference between SCD and NC regarding NCAPH2 methylation; 2) For aMCI, NCAPH2 methylation at CpG2 were significantly lower in aMCI compared with NC and SCD in the entire population and male subgroup; 3) For AD, NCAPH2 methylation at CpG1 were significantly lower in AD compared with NC among females; 4) A relationship with apolipoprotein E (APOE) ɛ4 status was shown. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis by combining NCAPH2 methylation, age, education, and APOEɛ4 status could distinguish between patients with aMCI (area under the curve (AUC): 0.742) and AD (AUC: 0.873) from NCs.
    Conclusion: NCAPH2 methylation levels were altered at the aMCI and AD stage and may be convenient and cost-effective biomarkers of AD and aMCI.

    Abstract Background: Emergence of novel immuno-therapeutics has shown promising improvement in the clinical outcome of colorectal cancer (CRC).
    Objective: To identify robust immune checkpoints based on expression and immune infiltration profiles of clinical CRC samples.
    Methods: One dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas database and two from Gene Expression Omnibus were independently employed for the analysis. Genes associated with overall survival were identified, and distribution of each immune checkpoint with respect to different clinical features was determined to explore key immune checkpoints. Multiple staining methods were used to verify the correlation between key immune checkpoint ICOS and clinical pathological features. Differentially expressed mRNA and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) were then detected for gene set enrichment analysis and gene set variation analysis to investigate the differentially enriched biological processes between low- and high-expression groups. Significant immune-related mRNAs and lncRNA were subjected to competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network analysis. Correlation of inducible T-cell costimulator (ICOS) and top 10 genes in ceRNA network were further considered for validation.
    Results: ICOS was identified from 14 immune checkpoints as the most highly correlated gene with survival and clinical features in CRC. The expression of ICOS protein in the poorly differentiated group was lower than that in the moderately differentiated group, and the expression in different pathological stages was significant. In addition, the expressions of ICOS were negatively correlated with Ki67. A conspicuous number of immune-related pathways were enriched in differentially expressed genes in the ICOS high- and low-expression groups. Integration with immune infiltration data revealed a multitude of differentially expressed immune-related genes enriched for ceRNA network. Furthermore, expression of top 10 genes investigated from ceRNA network showed high correlation with ICOS.
    Conclusion: ICOS might serve as a robust immune checkpoint for prognosis with several genes being potential targets of ICOS-directed immunotherapy in CRC.

    Abstract Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are among the most common and lethal cancers worldwide. GI microbes play an important role in the occurrence and development of GI cancers. The common mechanisms by which GI microbes may lead to the occurrence and development of cancer include the instability of the microbial internal environment, secretion of cancer-related metabolites, and destabilization of the GI mucosal barrier. In recent years, many studies have found that the relationship between GI microbes and the development of cancer is closely associated with the GI redox level. Redox instability associated with GI microbes may induce oxidative stress, DNA damage, cumulative gene mutation, protein dysfunction and abnormal lipid metabolism in GI cells. Redox-related metabolites of GI microbes, such as short-chain fatty acids, hydrogen sulfide and nitric oxide, which are involved in cancer, may also influence GI redox levels. This paper reviews the redox reactions of GI cells regulated by microorganisms and their metabolites, as well as redox reactions in the cancer-related GI microbes themselves. This study provides a new perspective for the prevention and treatment of GI cancers.

    Abstract Purpose: The specific risk factors of metastatic and nonmetastatic esophageal neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) are still uncertain. Whether primary site surgery is necessary for all patients with esophageal NEC is unknown.
    Methods: Patients with esophageal NEC in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2004 to 2014 were selected. STATA 12 was used to analyze the clinical and pathological features of esophageal NEC.
    Results: In total, 241 patients with esophageal NEC were included. Metastatic patients had shorter overall survival than nonmetastatic patients (6.03 versus 11.90 months, respectively). Prognostic factors varied between metastatic and nonmetastatic esophageal NEC. The location of the primary tumor is a key point for the prognosis of esophageal NEC. For nonmetastatic esophageal NEC, patients with tumors in the upper third of the esophagus had the worst survival, and patients with metastatic esophageal NEC with a primary tumor in the lower part of the esophagus tended to have an increased risk of death. Moreover, age ≥68 years (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.05; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.28-3.31; P < 0.01) and large cell carcinoma (HR = 2.79; 95% CI: 1.30-6.00; P < 0.01) were independent risk factors in patients with metastatic esophageal NEC. Primary site resection benefited patients with nonmetastatic esophageal NEC (HR = 0.20; 95% CI: 0.07-0.56; P < 0.01) rather than patients with metastatic esophageal NEC (HR = 0.91; 95% CI: 0.29-2.83; P > 0.05).
    Conclusions: Our study presented that primary tumor location is an important risk factor for nonmetastatic esophageal NEC patients. Age and pathological type are important risk factors for patients with metastatic esophageal NEC. Nonmetastatic esophageal NEC will benefit from primary tumor resection. Systematic treatment is recommended for metastatic esophageal NEC.

    Abstract Immunotherapy has transformed treatment for various types of malignancy. However, the benefit of immunotherapy is limited to a minority of patients with mismatch-repair-deficient (dMMR) and microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) (dMMR-MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC). Understanding the complexity and heterogeneity of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and identifying immune-related CRC subtypes will improve antitumor immunotherapy. Here, we review the current status of immunotherapy and typing schemes for CRC. Immune subtypes have been identified based on TIME and prognostic gene signatures that can both partially explain clinical responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors and the prognosis of patients with CRC. Identifying immune subtypes will improve understanding of complex CRC tumor heterogeneity and refine current immunotherapeutic strategies.

    Abstract Introduction: Pancreatic follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is an exceptionally rare and low-to-moderate malignancy, with only seven reported cases to date. Clinical diagnosis of FDCS is challenging due to the lack of distinct biological and radiographic features.
    Case presentation: A 67-year-old woman presented to the hospital with a 4-day history of severe abdominal pain. Imaging studies (CT and MRI) revealed a large cystic mass located at the tail of the pancreas, which was suspected to be myeloid sarcoma (MS) based on EUS and CT-guided pancreatic puncture. Postoperative pathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of pancreatic FDCS. After the diagnosis was confirmed, the patient received postoperative chemotherapy with the CHOP regimen. At 11 months of follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence. Seven published cases have been reviewed to comprehensively summarize the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment options of FDCS.
    Conclusion: While imaging can be useful in detecting pancreatic FDCS, it should be interpreted with caution as it can be challenging to differentiate from other pancreatic tumors. Pathology and immunohistochemistry are considered the gold standard for diagnosis, with CD21, CD23, and CD35 being specific tumor cell markers. However, preoperative diagnosis of pancreatic FDCS remains difficult, and the pancreatic puncture may further increase the risk of misdiagnosis. The disease is highly prone to recurrence and metastasis, and surgery is the preferred method for both diagnosis and treatment of localized disease.
