Hepatic perivascular epithelioid cell tumor in three patients.

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare, soft tissue tumor that can occur in various locations. The present report included three patients (one male and two females; age range, 25-51 years) with hepatic PEComas. The collected data included the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, management, treatment, and prognosis.

Oleanolic acid attenuates liver ischemia reperfusion injury by HO-1/Sesn2 signaling pathway.

Background: Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is unavoidable in liver transplantation and hepatectomy. The present study aimed to explore the possible mechanism and the effect of oleanolic acid (OA) in hepatic IRI.

Methods: Mice were randomly divided into 6 groups based on different treatment.
