Disease relevance of Adenoma

 

Psychiatry related information on Adenoma

 

High impact information on Adenoma

  • Bi-allelic inactivation of TCF1 in hepatic adenomas [12].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Calcium supplementation is associated with a significant - though moderate - reduction in the risk of recurrent colorectal adenomas [2].
  • We also prospectively examined the prevalence of aberrant crypt foci in 11 subjects (4 normal subjects, 6 with adenoma, and 1 with cancer) before and after the administration of 100 mg of sulindac three times a day for 8 to 12 months and compared the results with those in 9 untreated subjects (4 normal subjects and 5 with adenoma) [13].
  • Mutations of the Down-regulated in adenoma (DRA) gene cause congenital chloride diarrhoea [14].
  • The association between brain tumors and multiple colorectal adenomas can result from two distinct types of germ-line defects: mutation of the APC gene or mutation of a mismatch-repair gene [15].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Adenoma

  • We conclude that CT scans, together with appropriate biochemical measurements, are useful in diagnosing and locating aldosterone-producing adenomas [3].
  • The tumors from 12 of the women with nonsecreting adenomas were cultured, and the secretion of FSH, LH, and LH beta in culture was determined [16].
  • Relation between the frequency of colorectal adenoma and the serum cholesterol level [17].
  • We conducted a randomized, controlled clinical trial to test the efficacy of beta carotene and vitamins C and E in preventing colorectal adenoma, a precursor of invasive cancer [18].
  • Eleven of the 16 women with apparently nonsecreting adenomas had significant increases in serum LH beta in response to TRH, 3 had FSH responses, and 4 had LH responses [16].
  • Our findings suggest that increased serum levels of IL-6 are positively associated with the presence of colorectal adenoma in men, independently of insulin and HOMA-IR [19].
 

Biological context of Adenoma

  • Of 34 sporadic adenomas from patients without MEN-1, 9 showed similar allelic losses in chromosome 11; in 7 the losses included the apparent MEN-1 locus [20].
  • A reduction in the DNA methyltransferase activity in Min mice due to heterozygosity of the DNA methyltransferase gene, in conjunction with a weekly dose of the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-aza-deoxycytidine, reduced the average number of intestinal adenomas from 113 in the control mice to only 2 polyps in the treated heterozygotes [21].
  • The results demonstrate that loss of E-cadherin-mediated cell adhesion is one rate-limiting step in the progression from adenoma to carcinoma [22].
  • Familial adenomatous polyposis coli (FAP) is a disease characterized by the development of multiple colorectal adenomas, and affected individuals carry germline mutations in the APC gene [23].
  • Loss of p18, like that of p27, but not other CDK inhibitor genes, leads to a gradual progression from intermediate lobe pituitary hyperplasia in young mice to an adenoma by 10 months of age with a nearly complete penetrance [24].
 

Anatomical context of Adenoma

 

Gene context of Adenoma

  • Thus, somatostatin analogues with improved selective binding affinity for these receptor subtypes may be effective in the treatment of either GH- or PRL-secreting adenomas [29].
  • Inhibitory effects of 1 and 10 micrograms/dl dexamethasone on ACTH release and POMC mRNA levels in nonadenoma cells were greater than those in adenoma cells [30].
  • Mice homozygous for a null cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) (also called PTGS2) allele have a dramatically reduced susceptibility to the development of intestinal adenomas [31].
  • These results suggest the following: (a) that the mRNA in cultured pituitary adenoma cells is qualitatively the same as that in vivo; (b) that responses of mRNA levels to CRH are time- and dose-dependent; and (c) that adenoma cells resist the inhibitory effect of dexamethasone on POMC mRNA levels and ACTH release [30].
  • However, in four other adenomas, tumor heterogeneity was demonstrated, since c-K-ras mutations were detected only in discrete portions [32].
  • Variants that enhance TGFB1 production may be associated with an increased risk of advanced colorectal adenoma [33].
  • Inflammatory HCA expressing CRP and SAA was documented in 36 of 57 adenomas (63%) [34].
  • As the 5q15-q31.1 region harbors the APC locus, APC mutation status was investigated, showing significantly less mutations in flat adenomas (P = 0.04) [35].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Adenoma

  • Sulindac reduces the number and size of colorectal adenomas in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis, but its effect is incomplete, and it is unlikely to replace colectomy as primary therapy [1].
  • A comparative RT-PCR approach revealed signals for both V3 receptor and CHR receptor mRNAs in 17 of 18 ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas, and 6 of 6 normal pituitaries; in six growth hormone- or prolactin-secreting adenomas, a very faint V3 receptor signal was observed in three cases, and CRH receptor signal was undetected in all [36].
  • METHODS: The expression and methylation status of 6 RASSF family genes were examined using RT-PCR and bisulfite PCR in CRC cell lines and in primary CRCs and colorectal adenomas [37].
  • RESULTS: The Northern blots revealed an approximately threefold increase in the level of COX-2 messenger RNA in Min mouse adenoma compared with normal mucosa [38].
  • At both 8-mm and 10-mm adenoma size thresholds, the per-patient sensitivities of CAD were not significantly different from those of optical colonoscopy before segmental unblinding [39].
