Zerumbone can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of esophageal cancer EC-109 cells, and its induction of apoptosis may be realized through upregulating the mRNA expression of P53 and downregulating the mRNA expression of Bcl-2, and upregulating the protein expression of P53 and downregulating the protein expression of Bcl-2.

YAP1-Mediated CDK6 Activation Confers Radiation Resistance in Esophageal Cancer - Rationale for the Combination of YAP1 and CDK4/6 Inhibitors in Esophageal Cancer.
Women with inactive ADH1B and ALDH2 should reduce drinking and increase their intake of vegetable and fruit to prevent development of esophageal cancer.

With standardized HER2 testing in gastro-esophageal cancer, the ongoing trials are testing newer agents and combinations including combination of anti-HER2 antibodies with immunotherapy.
With a goal of identifying relations between gene expression and response (mucosal or pathological) or survival in esophageal cancer patients (stages II to IV) receiving oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil (5FU) and radiation, we measured in endoscopic primary tumor biopsies from 38 patients, the expression of seven genes (gammaGCS, gammaGT, MRP-2, ERCC-1, XPA, TS and DPD) prior to treatment, 1 week following oxaliplatin alone and at the end of the combined radio-chemotherapy cycle using real time QRT-PCR.

With a differential display approach, up-regulated GRP was observed in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) samples obtained from a high-risk area for esophageal cancer, Linzhou in northern China.
Wild-type form of p53 status (low expression of p53 protein and/or wild-type p53 gene) was associated with high response to chemotherapy-based treatment in esophageal cancer (total major response [MR]: risk ratio [RR] = 1.09, 95 % CI = 1.03-1.16, P = .003; pathological MR: RR = 1.15, 95 % CI = 1.06-1.25, P = .001; total complete response [CR]: RR = 1.08, 95 % CI = 1.00-1.17, P = .040).
Whether HIF-1alpha mRNA or protein expression is associated with histomorphological response or prognosis following neoadjuvant chemoradiation and surgery in resectable, locally-advanced esophageal cancer was analyzed.
When inducible AKT was introduced into fetal skin esophageal fibroblasts, a more invasive, less-differentiated esophageal cancer phenotype was achieved.
When HOXA1 was reintroduced into miR-30b-transfected ECA109 or TE-1 cells, the inhibitory effects of miR-30b on EC cell growth, migration, and invasion were markedly reversed.
When all 11 studies were pooled into the analysis, an increased esophageal cancer risk was significantly associated with the Pro variant of TP53Arg72Pro in three genetic comparison models [odds ratio (OR)Pro vs. Arg=1.21, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.05-1.39, POR=0.009; ORDominant genetic model=1.22, 95% CI: 1.09-1.37, POR=0.001; ORHomozygote model=1.40, 95% CI: 1.05-1.87, POR=0.024].

Western blot: The relative amount of CCNG2 protein in esophageal cancer tissue was respectively found to be significantly lower than in normal tissues (P < 0.05).
