ABSTRACT

Although oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is a potent tumor-suppressor mechanism, recent studies revealed that cells could escape from OIS with features of transformed cells. However, the mechanisms that promote OIS escape remain unclear, and evidence of post-senescent cells in human cancers is missing. Here, we unravel the regulatory mechanisms underlying OIS escape using dynamic multidimensional profiling. We demonstrate a critical role for AP1 and POU2F2 transcription factors in escape from OIS and identify senescence-associated chromatin scars (SACSs) as an epigenetic memory of OIS detectable during colorectal cancer progression. POU2F2 levels are already elevated in precancerous lesions and as cells escape from OIS, and its expression and binding activity to cis-regulatory elements are associated with decreased patient survival. Our results support a model in which POU2F2 exploits a precoded enhancer landscape necessary for senescence escape and reveal POU2F2 and SACS gene signatures as valuable biomarkers with diagnostic and prognostic potential.

ABSTRACT

Sarcomatoid hepatocellular carcinoma (SHCC) is a rare variant of liver cancer that lacks treatment options. The IMbrave trail demonstrated the efficacy of atezolizumab and bevacizumab (A + B) in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma but excluded patients with sarcomatoid variants. Herein, we describe a case of disease control achieved using the IMbrave regimen in a patient with sarcomatoid hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

A 56-year-old man presented to the emergency department with painless jaundice and weight loss. Abdominal ultrasound detected dilation of the common bile duct and the intrahepatic bile ducts. Follow-up with endoscopic retrograde cholangiography exposed a stricture of the common hepatic duct, with cholangioscopy identifying an infiltrating tumor. Biopsy revealed a granular cell tumor, which was confirmed by positive S-100 immunohistochemical staining. Surgical excision confirmed granular cell tumor of the bile duct with morphological features suggestive of malignancy.
