Epidemiology of early esophageal adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Clinical Endoscopy, 2022 Background/Aims: Endoscopic resection has become the preferred treatment approach for select early esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC); however, the epidemiology of early stage disease has not been well defined.Methods: Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) data were analyzed to determine age-adjusted incidence rates among major epithelial ...

Chemoprevention of esophageal adenocarcinoma
Gastroenterology Report, 2020 Abstract Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is a major cause of cancer-related death, particularly in Western populations, and is rapidly rising in Asian populations at this time. Virtually all EACs develop from the precursor lesion Barrett’s esophagus (BE), which is the most significant risk factor for EAC.

Dedifferentiation of esophageal progenitors in metaplasia and cancer
Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021 Barrett syndrome is a squamo-columnar metaplasia increasing the risk of developing esophageal adenocarcinoma. Recently, we showed that esophageal cells can transdifferentiate into undifferentiated columnar cells in vivo.
