A Novel Liver Metastasis Score for Patients Undergoing Surgical Resection of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: A Multi-institutional Study.

Background: Liver metastasis impacts survival in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs); however, current guidelines lack consensus on post-resection surveillance and adjuvant therapy. A comprehensive risk stratification tool is needed to guide personalized management.

Objective: We aimed to develop and validate a predictive model for liver metastasis risk after surgical resection of GEP-NETs that incorporates pathological factors and adjuvant therapy.

Association between gut microbiota and hepatocellular carcinoma and biliary tract cancer: A mendelian randomization study.

Background: An increasing number of studies have begun to discuss the relationship between gut microbiota and diseases, yet there is currently a lack of corresponding articles describing the association between gut microbiota and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and biliary tract cancer (BTC). This study aims to explore the relationship between them using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis method.

Aim: To assess the relationship between gut microbiota and HCC and BTC.

Puerarin protects against high-fat high-sucrose diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by modulating PARP-1/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and facilitating mitochondrial homeostasis.

As yet, there was no effective pharmacological therapy approved for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Here, we aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of puerarin against NAFLD and explored the underlying mechanisms. C57BL/6J mice were fed with a high-fat high-sucrose (HFHS) diet with or without puerarin coadministration intragastrically.

PARP-1 promotes tumor recurrence after warm ischemic liver graft transplantation via neutrophil recruitment and polarization.

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is a crucial contributor to exacerbate ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury and cancer process. However, there is little research into whether PARP-1 affects the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after liver transplantation. In this study, we investigated the influence of PARP-1 on hepatic neutrophil mobilizing and phenotype shifting which may lead to HCC recurrence after liver transplantation.
