概要 Objective: For oncologic safety, vaginal radical trachelectomy is generally performed only in patients with cervical cancers smaller than 2 cm. However, because inclusion criteria for abdominal trache...lectomy are controversial, we evaluated the safety of abdominal trachelectomy for cervical cancers ≥2 cm.
Methods: We began performing abdominal trachelectomies at our institution in 2005, primarily for squamous cell carcinoma ≤3 cm or adenocarcinoma/adenosquamous carcinoma ≤2 cm. If a positive sentinel lymph node or cervical margin was diagnosed intraoperatively by frozen section, the trachelectomy was converted to a hysterectomy. Medical records of these patients were reviewed retrospectively. Patients who had undergone simple abdominal trachelectomy were excluded from this study.
Results: We attempted trachelectomy in 212 patients. Among the 135 patients with tumors <2 cm, trachelectomy was successful in 120, one of whom developed recurrence and none of whom died of their disease. Among 77 patients with tumors ≥2 cm, trachelectomy was successful in 62, 2 of whom developed recurrence and 1 of whom died of her disease. The overall relapse rate after trachelectomy was 1.6% (0.8% in <2 cm group and 3.2% in ≥2 cm group), and the mortality rate was 0.5% (0% in <2 cm group and 1.6% in ≥2 cm group). Recurrence-free survival (p=0.303) and overall survival (p=0.193) did not differ significantly between the <2 cm and ≥2 cm groups.
Conclusions: Abdominal trachelectomy with intraoperative frozen sections of sentinel lymph nodes and cervical margins is oncologically safe, even in patients with tumors ≥2 cm.box binding protein 2 (YBX2) has been associated with the properties of both germ cells and cancer cells. We hypothesized that YBX2 might contribute to the characteristics of cancer stem cells (CSCs). In this study, we clarified the function of YBX2 in endometrial cancer stem cells. We established a human YBX2-expressing Ishikawa (IK) cell line (IK-YBX2 cells). We analyzed gene expression associated with stemness and isolated SP cells from IK-YBX2 cells. The SP population of IK-YBX2 cells, the expression of ALDH1 and serial sphere-forming capacity were associated with levels of YBX2 expression. IK-YBX2 cells were resistant to anti-cancer drugs. In gene expression analysis, a gene for cancer testis antigen, CT45, was generally overexpressed in IK-YBX2 cells. YBX2-mediated CT45 expression was associated with increased levels of self-renewal capacity and paclitaxel resistance. The level of CT45 expression was enhanced in high-grade and/or advanced stages of human endometrial cancer tissues. We conclude that expression of YBX2 is essential for the stem cell-like phenotype. CT45 contributes to stemness associated with YBX2 and might be related to the progression of endometrial cancer.
