Context: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis, as a majority of patients present with advanced disease. Current adjuvant strategies for metastatic patients include mitotane or other cytotoxic agents and carry a significant morbidity as well as a low (<10 %) 5-year survival. Withanolides, including withaferin A, are novel chemotherapeutic agents with potent targeted effects in medullary thyroid cancer and a number of solid malignancies with low toxicity in vivo. We hypothesize that novel naturally derived withanolides will have potent targeted anti-cancer activity against ACCs.', 'In vitro cell viability of ACC cell lines (Y1 and SW13) was measured using MTS cell proliferation assay. Cell cycle and apoptotic analysis studied using annexin V/propidium iodide staining on flow cytometry (FC) and targeted molecular mechanisms of withanolide cytotoxicity were assessed using standard Western blot analysis.', 'All the withanolides potently reduced ACC cell viability on MTS assay with 7- to 185-fold higher selectivity than normal fibroblasts. Cell cycle analysis demonstrated a shift in cell cycle arrest from G1/G0 to G2/M with induction of apoptosis at nanomolar concentrations of withanolides. Unlike current ACC therapeutics, withanolides modulated expression of several key oncogenic pathway proteins in ACCs by Western blot, including Jagged 1, MAPK, and Akt/mTOR pathway proteins in a dose-dependent manner after 24 h drug treatment of SW13 cells.
Answer: These results demonstrate the first evidence of the anticancer efficacy of withanolides in ACC cells and provide support for future translational evaluation of these compounds as novel therapeutic agents for ACC patients.
Are withanolides potent novel targeted therapeutic agents against adrenocortical carcinomas?

Context: The gap between the tendon stumps in chronic Achilles tendon rupture has reportedly been filled with interposed scar tissue. In the authors' clinical experience, this interposed tissue is often thick and resists tension, so they considered it was possible to use the interposed tissue for reconstruction of Achilles tendon rupture.", 'Scar tissue interposed between the tendon stumps has the capacity to form tendon-like repair tissue in patients with chronic Achilles tendon rupture.', 'Case series; Level of evidence, 4.', 'Six patients with chronic rupture of the Achilles tendon underwent tendon reconstruction with the use of interposed tissue between the stumps. The average time from the primary injury to surgery was 22 weeks (range, 9 to 30 weeks). Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), histology of the interposed tissue, and clinical results were evaluated. The average postoperative follow-up period was 31 months (range, 24 to 43 months).', 'Preoperative T2-weighted MRI in all cases revealed that chronically ruptured Achilles tendons were thickened and fusiform-shaped with diffuse intratendinous high-signal alterations throughout. Longitudinal high-signal bands were seen throughout the tendon, except at the musculotendinous junction and insertion on the calcaneus. Histologically, scar tissue interposed between the tendon stumps consisted of dense collagen fibers, and degenerative changes were not seen. After surgery, no patient had difficulty in walking or stair climbing, and all were able to perform a single-limb toe raise. The mean preoperative and postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scores were 88.2 and 98.3 points, respectively; the difference was statistically significant (P = .0277).
Answer: Interposed tissue between the tendon stumps is suitable for repair of chronic Achilles tendon rupture if preoperative MRI shows a thickened fusiform-shaped Achilles tendon with diffuse intratendinous high-signal alterations throughout.
Do reconstruction of chronic achilles tendon rupture with the use of interposed tissue between the stumps?

Context: There is controversy regarding the role of yttrium-90 (90Y) radioembolization in the management of advanced, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).', 'Forty-five consecutive patients underwent resin-based 90Y radioembolization for unresectable, HCC between 2006 and 2013 in Sydney, Australia. All patients were followed up with imaging studies at regular intervals until death. Radiologic response was evaluated with the Response Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Clinical toxicities were prospectively recorded. Survival was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method and potential prognostic variables were identified on univariate and multivariate analysis.', 'Follow-up in the complete cohort was 7.8 (range, 0.1-41.8) months. The median survival after 90Y radioembolization was 27.7 months with a 36-month survival of 26%. By RECIST criteria of the 40 patients followed-up beyond 2 months, a complete response (CR) to treatment was observed in 1 patients (3%), partial response (PR) in 18 (45%), stable disease (SD) in 11 (22%) and progressive disease (PD) in 10 (25%). On multivariate analysis only radiological response to treatment was independently associated with improved survival: CR/PR to treatment vs. SD vs. PD; p\xa0<\xa00.001. Thirteen patients (29%) developed clinical toxicity after treatment; all complications were minor (grade I/II) and resolved without active intervention.
Answer: Radioembolization with 90Y is a safe and effective treatment for unresectable HCC.
