RBM5 (RNA-binding motif protein 5) is a nuclear RNA binding protein containing 2 RNA recognition motifs. The RBM5 gene is located at the tumor suppressor locus 3p21.3. Deletion of this locus is the most frequent genetic alteration in lung cancer, but is also found in other human cancers. RBM5 is known to induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest but the molecular mechanisms of RBM5 function are poorly understood. Here, we show that RBM5 is important for the activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53. Overexpression of RBM5 enhanced p53-mediated inhibition of cell growth and colony formation. Expression of RBM5 augmented p53 transcriptional activity in reporter gene assays and resulted in increased mRNA and protein levels for endogenous p53 target genes. In contrast, shRNA-mediated knockdown of endogenous RBM5 led to decreased p53 transcriptional activity and reduced levels of mRNA and protein for endogenous p53 target genes. RBM5 affected protein, but not mRNA, levels of endogenous p53 after DNA damage suggest that RBM5 contributes to p53 activity through post-transcriptional mechanisms. Our results show that RBM5 contributes to p53 transcriptional activity after DNA damage and that growth suppression and apoptosis mediated by RBM5 are linked to activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53.

Background and Aim: Autoimmune pancreatitis is commonly associated with immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC). The discrimination between IgG4-SC and pancreatobiliary malignancies or primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is now an important issue. The present study was carried out to examine the usefulness of endoscopic biopsies from Vater's ampulla and the bile duct to diagnose IgG4-SC. Methods: The present study included 29 IgG4-SC patients (26 with both pancreatitis and cholangitis, and 3 with cholangitis only), 6 PSC patients, and 27 pancreatobiliary carcinoma patients. All patients underwent endoscopic biopsies from Vater's ampulla and the common bile duct. Biopsied specimens were histologically examined using immunostaining for IgG4. Results: For the ampullary and bile duct biopsies, the IgG4-SC samples had a significantly greater number of IgG4-positive plasma cells than the PSC or pancreatobiliary carcinoma specimens. In addition, bile duct biopsies from five patients (17%) with IgG4-SC showed diffuse inflammatory cell infiltration with irregular fibrosis corresponding to the histological features of lymphoplasmacytic sclerosing pancreatocholangitis. Based on the threshold of 10 IgG4-positive plasma cells per high power field, the diagnostic rates of the ampullar and bile duct biopsies were both 52% (15/29 cases). Twenty-one patients (72%) had more than 10 IgG4-positive plasma cells in at least one biopsy. The bile duct biopsy was significantly valuable for IgG4-SC patients with swelling of the pancreatic head. Conclusion: The present study suggested that ampullar and bile duct biopsies are useful for diagnosing IgG4-SC. © 2010 Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Foundation and Blackwell Publishing Asia Pty Ltd.

Endoscopic treatment is highly effective for extracting common bile duct (CBD) stones and is the most common therapeutic method for CBD stones. For patients with CBD stones, the treatment goal is to completely clear the biliary duct. In general, the successful extraction rate using a basket and/or balloon catheter is as high as 90%. However, stones that are resistant to conventional endoscopic treatment procedures can be both challenging and time-consuming to treat; and successful treatment can require a combination of techniques, including mechanical lithotripsy or extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy. We performed needle knife sphincterotomy and attempted to remove a CBD stone using biopsy forceps and alligator grasping forceps without a lithotripter in a patient with a large impacted stone at Vater's ampulla. After attempting several techniques, the stone was successfully removed with balloon extraction. © 2010 Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society.

Purpose The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the presence of carcinoma in situ at the bile duct stump on postoperative survival in patients who underwent resection of extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma. Methods The patients with resected extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma were divided into three groups according to resected margin status: No evidence of residual carcinoma (Negative group, n = 96); carcinoma in situ at the bile duct stump (CIS group, n = 10); and invasive carcinoma at any surgical margin (Invasive group, n = 19). Cause-specific survival for these groups was compared statistically. Results Surgical margin status was identified as a prognostic factor on univariate analysis (p = 0.005) and was an independent prognostic factor on multivariate analysis (p = 0.018). The CIS group displayed significantl y better survival than the Invasive group (p = 0.006), and the survival was comparable to that for the Negative group (p = 0.533). Two of three patients in the CIS group with local recurrence died > 5 years after surgical resection. Conclusions Patients with positive ductal margins of carcinoma in situ of the extrahepatic bile duct do not appear to show different survival after resection compared to patients with negative margins, but remnant carcinoma in situ is likely to develop late local recurrence. © Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery and Springer 2009.

Background and study aims: Localized-type bile duct carcinoma (LBDC) is often accompanied by extensive intraepithelial tumor spread (ITS) of 2cm or more, which makes radical resection more difficult. This retrospective case review compares the diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) and peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) to detect ITS beyond the visible LBDC. Patients and methods: Forty-four consecutive patients with LBDC diagnosed between April 2004 and October 2008 who underwent radical resection with histopathological analysis were included in this study. Extensive ITS was found histopathologically in one-third of the cases (32%). The outcome parameters were the presence or absence of extensive ITS and the extent of extensive ITS proximal and distal to the main tumor. Results: In six cases it was not possible to pass the cholangioscope through the tumor sites. ERC correctly identified the presence of extensive ITS in 11/14 cases and did not yield any false-positive results. The three cases in which ERC was negative were all correctly identified by POCS plus biopsy since the cholangioscope could be passed in all three cases. The extent of extensive ITS was correctly diagnosed by ERC alone, ERC with POCS, and ERC with POCS plus mapping biopsy in 22%, 77%, and 100% of cases, respectively. Conclusions: The presence of extensive ITS was correctly detected in 80% of cases by ERC alone. POCS with mapping biopsy provided perfect diagnostic accuracy not only of the presence or absence but also of the extent of extensive ITS. However, POCS has the limitation that the cholangioscope cannot be passed through the tumor sites in approximately 15% of cases. © Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart.

We report herein the first case of intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm of the bile duct arising from a peribiliary gland of the left hepatic duct. The patient was a 63-year-old Japanese man. Radiological and cholangioscopic examinations revealed intraductal tumor of the left hepatic duct. After pathological diagnosis of adenocarcinoma by cholangioscopic biopsy, a surgical hepatobiliary resection was performed. Pathological examination revealed papillary tumor in the left hepatic duct. Histologically, the tumor was identified as papillary neoplasm comprising oncocytic cells and delicate fibrovascular cores. Interestingly, this tumor originated from the cystic space in the bile duct wall. This cystic space was histologically identified as a cystically dilated peribiliary gland. Carcinoma in situ was observed in this cystic peribiliary gland at the bottom of the tumor, but not on any areas of biliary epithelium. This case suggests that intraductal papillary neoplasm can arise from both biliary epithelium and peribiliary glands. © 2009 Springer.

Background: In duodenoscopy, during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), a backward-oblique angle duodenoscope (BOAD) is generally used. In Japan, 15° BOAD are mainly used, but in Western countries, 5° BOAD are mostly used. In bile duct cannulation associated with ERCP, a catheter for contrast imaging is used in Japan, but wire-guided cannulation (WGC) using a papillotome is standard in Western countries. We conducted a randomized controlled multicenter trial to evaluate the contributions of different duodenoscopes using WGC to selective common bile duct cannulation. Methods: Subjects comprised 179 consecutive patients who underwent ERCP. Patients were randomized into the 15° BOAD group (15° group, n = 90) or the 5° BOAD group (5° group, n = 89). Results: The duodenal papilla could not be accessed endoscopically in two cases from each group. Success rates for bile duct cannulation by WGC without bow-up for the 15° and 5° groups were 85.6 and 56.2%, respectively (P < 0.01). Success rates for bile duct cannulation by WGC with bow-up for the 15° and 5° groups were 88.9 and 78.7%, respectively. Total rates of bile duct cannulation for the 15° and 5° groups were 94.4 and 92.1%, respectively. As for accidents, incidences of acute pancreatitis for the 15° and 5° groups were 5.6 and 9.0%, respectively, with no significant difference seen. Conclusions: With 15° BOAD, bile duct cannulation was favorable without papillotome bow-up. With 5° BOAD, the success rate of WGC may be improved by adjusting the angle based on papillotome bow-up. © 2009 Springer.

Objective: It has recently been reported that 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is useful for estimation of the chemotherapy effect. Thus, we examined the value of FDG-PET in assessing the efficacy of chemotherapy in advanced pancreatic cancer, and compared this modality with tumor markers (TMs) and CT. Patients and Methods: Nineteen patients with unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma were enrolled. All patients received chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1, an oral derivative of 5-fluorouracil, and underwent FDG-PET, CT, and serological examination for TMs before and after chemotherapy. Results: Standardized uptake value in FDG-PET before treatment and survival time were not correlated. A good prognosis was seen after 1 course of chemotherapy in patients whose tumors were in partial or complete remission as assessed by FDG-PET [median of survival time (MST), 12.5 months] or TMs (MST, 13.5 months), but not in CT responders (MST, 10.3 months). Furthermore, patient prognosis correlated with PET and TM assessment of the best tumor response through all courses. Namely, both PET and TM were useful for the prediction of survival or chemotherapy sensitivity of the patients. Conclusion: FDG-PET and TMs can each play an adjunct role to CT for estimating the effect of chemotherapy and predicting survival by distinguishing between responders and non-responders among patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. © 2009 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.

Pancreatic carcinoma associated with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is rare. Here, we report three cases of resected pancreatic carcinoma associated with PVTT. In all three cases, preoperative images obtained using computed tomography and endoscopic ultrasonography revealed a tumor thrombus in the portal vein, which was connected to an irregular mass in the pancreas. All cases underwent surgical resection of the primary lesion and the PVTT. The pathological diagnoses of the tumors were two cases of tubular adenocarcinoma and one case of nonfunctioning endocrine carcinoma. We also retrospectively examined other patients who underwent surgical excision with portal vein resection. © 2009 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.

We had three cases of pancreatic groove carcinoma. All cases developed obstructive jaundice. Duodenoscopy showed stenosis of the second portion of the duodenum in every case. Thus, endoscopic bile duct drainage could not be performed in two cases. CT revealed a mass between the duodenum and head of the pancreas, which was not well-defined by contrast-enhancement. Endoscopic ultrasonograghy revealed a hypoechoic mass which was adjacent to the common bile duct and duodenum in the pancreas head in all cases. Therefore, we could diagnose pancreatic groove carcinoma.

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a new category of pancreatic diseases. AIP associated with pseudocysts is rare; only 8 cases have been reported in the literature. A 63-year-old man was admitted to our department because of upper left abdominal pain and back pain. Various imaging studies demonstrated swelling of the tail of the pancreas with hemorrhagic pseudocysts. The patient underwent a surgical operation. A pancreatogram of the specimen revealed total occlusion of the main pancreatic duct in the tail of the pancreas. Histopathological examination revealed that it was AIP with hemorrhagic pseudocysts. © 2008 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.

Extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma occasionally presents with intraepithelial spread for a considerable area around the main tumor. In this study, we compared clinicopathological features of extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma with and without extensive intraepithelial spread (≥20 mm from the main tumor). Out of 117 cases of extrahepatic bile duct carcinoma, 21 (18%) were found to have extensive intraepithelial spread. Those cases were pathologically characterized by a papillary or nodular main tumor, a more differentiated histological grade, less deep invasion, and infrequent portal vein or hepatic invasion in comparison with cases without intraepithelial spread. Areas of intraepithelial spread his tologically consisted of low-papillary growth (17 cases, 81%) and completely flat growth (4 cases, 19%) of carcinoma cells. The former histology corresponded to a macroscopic granular mucosa, whereas the latter growth was hardly detected by gross examination. Immunohistochemically, in 16 of 21 cases (76%), at least one of p53, CEA, and MUC1 was expressed in both the main tumor and the spreading area. Interestingly, patients with intraepithelial spread had a better postoperative prognosis than those without intraepithelial spread (P=0.009). However, three patients had anastomotic recurrence 54-130 months after surgery. In conclusion, intraepithelial-spreading bile duct carcinoma is characterized by papillary or nodular main lesions, a more differentiated histological grade, and less invasiveness. The presence of intraepithelial spread was not an indicator of a poor prognosis, but carcinoma in situ at the bile duct stump could cause late anastomotic recurrence after surgery. © 2008 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved.

A 68-year-old woman with a history of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) resected curatively 12 years previously was admitted to our department for scrutiny of pancreatic tumors. Various unaging studies demonstrated heterogeneously well-enhanced masses in the head and tail of the pancreas. The well-enhanced mass in the head of the pancreas was connected with the tumor thrombus in the portal vein. To differentially diagnose the multiple pancreatic lesions, we performed endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNAB). Histopathologic findings of the EUS-FNAB specimens were similar to those of the renal clear cell carcinoma previously resected. The patient underwent a surgical operation with segmental resection of the portal vein with the preoperative diagnosis of RCC metastasis to the pancreas with intraportal growth. Histopathological examination of the resected specimen revealed that the masses in the pancreas were multiple pancreatic metastases with intraportal tumor thrombus of RCC. The pancreas is a rare target for metastasis. This is a rare case of pancreatic metastasis from RCC with intraportal extension, and is the first preoperatively definitely diagnosed case using EUS-FNAB. © 2008 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.
