Senescence is significantly associated with cancer prognosis. This study aimed to construct a senescence-related prognostic model for colorectal cancer (CRC) and to investigate the influence of senescence on the tumor microenvironment.. Transcriptome and clinical data of CRC cases were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Senescence-related prognostic genes detected by univariate Cox regression were included in Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) analysis to construct a model. The efficacy of the model was validated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and survival analysis. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment were performed. CIBERSORT and Immuno-Oncology Biological Research (IOBR) were used to investigate the features of the tumor microenvironment. Single-cell RNA-seq data were used to investigate the expression levels of model genes in various cell types. Immunofluorescence staining for p21, SPP1, and CD68 was performed with human colon tissues.. A seven-gene (PTGER2, FGF2, IGFBP3, ANGPTL4, DKK1, WNT16 and SPP1) model was finally constructed. Patients were classified as high- or low-risk using the median score as the threshold. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for the 1-, 2-, and 3-year disease-specific survival (DSS) were 0.731, 0.651, and 0.643, respectively. Survival analysis showed a better 5-year DSS in low-risk patients in the construction and validation cohorts. GO and KEGG analyses revealed that DEGs were enriched in extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interactions, focal adhesion, and protein digestion and absorption. CIBERSORT and IOBR analyses revealed an abundance of macrophages and an immunosuppressive environment in the high-risk subgroup. Low-risk patients had higher response rates to immunotherapy than high-risk patients. ScRNA-seq data revealed high expression of SPP1 in a subset of macrophages with strong senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) features. Using CRC tumor tissues, we discovered that SPP1. Our study presents a novel model based on senescence-related genes that can identify CRC patients with a poor prognosis and an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. SPP1

The laparoscopic surgery is less invasive and better cosmetic. The laparoscopic liver resection(LLR)has been accepted for the insurance in April 2010, and increasingly performed in many hospitals, and also expected in metastasis of colorectal cancer. We retrospectively examined the results of LLR for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer. From June 2010 to July 2021, 174 cases of LLR for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer were performed in our hospital. The operation time was 384.5 minutes, the blood loss was small amount, and the postoperative hospital stay was 8 days. The complications were post-bleeding in 1 case, bile leakage in 7 cases, SSI in 16 cases, and no surgery-related deaths were observed. The 3-year disease-free survival rate was 22.8%, and the 5-year overall survival rate was 53.3%. In the comparison between single LLR and multiple LLR, the operation time and the blood loss increased, but there was no significant difference in the length of postoperative hospital stay. In initial LLR and repeat LLR, there were no significant differences in the operation time, blood loss, and postoperative hospital stay. In the primary lesion and simultaneous LLR and heterochronous LLR, the operation time and blood loss were not significantly different, but postoperative intra-abdominal abscess and SSI were more happened, and the postoperative hospital stay was significantly extended. LLR for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer can be safely performed at multiple sites or multiple times, and good treatment results have been obtained, so it was considered to be an effective treatment method.
