Linitis plastica is a rare condition showing circumferentially infiltrating intramural anaplastic carcinoma in a hollow viscus, resulting in a tissue thickening of the involved organ as constricted, inelastic, and rigid. While most secondary rectal linitis plastica(RLP) is caused by metastasis from stomach, breast, gallbladder, or bladder cancer, we report an extremely rare and unique case of secondary RLP due to prostate cancer with computed tomography(CT) and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) findings, including diffusion weighted imaging(DWI). A 78-year-old man presented with approximately a 2-mo history of constipation and without cancer history. On sigmoidoscopy, there was a luminal narrowing and thickening of rectum with mucosa being grossly normal in its appearance. On contrast-enhanced CT,marked contrast enhancement with wall thickening of rectum was noted. On pelvic MRI, rectal wall thickening showed a target sign on both T2-weighted imaging and DWI. A diffuse infiltrative lesion was suspected in the prostate gland based on low signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging and restricted diffusion. A transanal full-thickness excisional biopsy revealed metastasis from a prostate adenocarcinoma invading the submucosa to the muscularis propria consistent with metastatic RLP. We would like to emphasize the CT and MRI findings of metastatic RLP due to prostate cancer.

Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway has been frequently identified in various human cancers. The Hippo pathway is a highly complex pathway involving multiple types of proteins, and the activation of YAP by LATS kinase is the final effector step in the transcription process. In this study, we linked the roles of the multifunctional adapter proteins β-arrestins (β-arrestin 1 and 2) in cooperation with other signaling pathways such as GPCR and Wnt to essential cellular functions involved in carcinogenesis, including the regulation of cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation as well as stem cell properties.1 Although β-arrestin 1 and 2 have high structural similarities, they have different roles in carcinogenesis as β-arrestin 1 aids cancer cell survival and metastasis2 and β-arrestin 2 inhibits tumor growth.1 In the Hippo signaling pathway, β-arrestins function as scaffold proteins that mediate the phosphorylation of key molecules, and their association with human cancers is a major research topic. In this study, we demonstrated that β-arrestin 2 inhibits YAP activation through the formation of the β-arrestin 2-LATS-YAP trimeric complex, which results in the promotion of the kinase activity of LATS in cancer cell lines and patient-derived colon cancer organoids.
