Robotic anatomical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma located within segment 7 using the Glissonean approach.

Worldwide use of robotic-assisted hepatectomy has increased dramatically over the past two decades. The role of robotic liver surgery is still controversial, especially with respect to its long-term oncological outcomes in treating early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The Glissonean approach is a fundamental technique for anatomical resection using open and laparoscopic liver surgery.

Membrane protein-chimeric liposome-mediated delivery of triptolide for targeted hepatocellular carcinoma therapy.

Triptolide (TPL) is a diterpenoid triepoxide with broad antitumor efficacy, while lack of mechanism of action, severe systemic toxicity, and poor water solubility of TPL limited its usage. To unveil the mechanism of action and improve the pharmaceutical properties of TPL, here we explored the molecular mechanism of TPL and then fabricated TPL-loaded membrane protein-chimeric liposomes (TPL@MP-LP) and tested its anticancer efficacy against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). CCK8 assay, colony formation assay, EdU assay, and flow cytometry were used to examine the activity of TPL.

Long noncoding AFAP1-antisense RNA 1 is upregulated and promotes tumorigenesis in gastric cancer.

Long noncoding RNA serves important roles in gastric cancer (GC). However, the prognostic significance and tumorigenesis effect of AFAP1-antisense RNA 1 (AS1) in GC remain to be clarified. The present study was conducted in order to determine the expression level of AFAP1-AS1 by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction.

Cytotoxicity of hollow silica nanoparticles loaded with photosensitizes on huh-7 cells.

To observe the cytotoxic effect of the photodynamic therapy mediated by the traditional photosensitizer polyhematoporphyrin (C(34)H(38)N(4)NaO(5), Photosan-II Photosan-II was loaded into HSNP by one-step wet chemical, PS) and hollow silica nanoparticles (HSNP) loaded PS on Huh-7 cells and compare the cytotoxic effects. -based synthetic route. The cellular viability was determined by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay.

Ornithine decarboxylase and glutamate decarboxylase 65 as prognostic markers of gallbladder malignancy: a clinicopathological study in benign and malignant lesions of the gallbladder.

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) plays a critical role in cell proliferation and is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. Furthermore, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content and glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activity are increased in neoplastic tissues in colon and breast cancer. However, few studies have examined these molecules in gallbladder cancer specimens.
