ABSTRACT

Even though the pathophysiology of colorectal cancer (CRC) is complicated and poorly understood, interactions between risk factors appear to be key in the development and progression of the malignancy. The popularity of using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) prebiotics and probiotics to modulate the tumor microenvironment (TME) has grown widely over the past decade. The objective of this study was therefore to determine the detrimental effects of LAB-derived lactic acid in the colonic mucosa in colorectal cancer management. Six library databases and a web search engine were used to execute a structured systematic search of the existing literature, considering all publications published up until August 2022. A total of 7817 papers were screened, all of which were published between 1995 and August 2022. However, only 118 articles met the inclusion criterion. Lactic acid has been directly linked to the massive proliferation of cancerous cells since the glycolytic pathway provides cancerous cells with not only ATP, but also biosynthetic intermediates for rapid growth and proliferation. Our research suggests that targeting LAB metabolic pathways is capable of suppressing tumor growth and that the LDH gene is critical for tumorigenesis. Silencing of Lactate dehydrogenase, A (LDHA), B (LDHB), (LDHL), and hicD genes should be explored to inhibit fermentative glycolysis yielding lactic acid as the by-product. More studies are necessary for a solid understanding of this topic so that LAB and their corresponding lactic acid by-products do not have more adverse effects than their widely touted positive outcomes in CRC management.

ABSTRACT

AIMS: The authors performed urgent coronarography and revascularisation after administering a combined half dose of alteplase (tissue plazminogen activator) and eptifibatide (glycoprotein II/bIIIa receptor blocking agent) to patients suffering from acute coronary syndromes with persistent ST-segment elevation. METHODS: During the period between 01 April to 15 December, 2001. 20 patients (16 men and 4 women, mean age: 55.6 years) were treated. The localization of infarction on the basis of ST-segment elevation was: 9 cases inferior, 10 cases anterior and patient with left bundle branch block in 1 cases. The mean time between the infarct related angina and hospital admission was 158 (30-600) minutes. The combined medical therapy was initiated after 34 (15-150) minutes on the average admission, and 123 (71-210) minutes later the patients were in the catheter laboratory. RESULTS: Coronarography showed TIMI-0 flow in 4 cases, TIMI-2 flow in 3 cases and TIMI-3 flow in 13 cases. Acute percutan coronary intervention was done in 14 cases, aorto-coronary bypass surgery was performed in 4 cases (2 of them were emergency operations, the other 2 were done electively). Besides postpunctional haematomas, hemorrhagic complications in the form of haematemesis were observed in 2 cases, but there was no need for transfusion. The mean CK-MB release (between 14 patients) was 230.4 (30-1176) U/l. One patient died after the emergency bypass surgery. CONCLUSIONS: On the basis of initial results the authors emphasize the importance of working out the optimal revascularisation strategy for acute coronary syndrome patients with ST-segment elevation in every Hungarian catheter centre. The authors find this method--in their case the catheter laboratory is 60 kms away, time of transport is approximately 70-90 minutes--an effective and safe alternative therapy in patients under the age of 75 years with acute myocardial infarction.
