Article Synopsis
- Liver cancer treatment often involves a mix of different methods, including a newer technique called hypofractionated and intensity-modulated radiotherapy, especially for complex cases like metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
- A 41-year-old man with advanced metastatic HCC could not have surgery due to the late stage of his cancer, so a combined treatment approach was taken, using targeted therapies and this new radiotherapy method, resulting in tumor shrinkage.
- The patient's condition improved, allowing him to live for 18 months without disease progression, highlighting the effectiveness of this combined treatment strategy for advanced cases of liver cancer.
Acute and chronic itch are prevalent and incapacitating, yet the neural mechanisms underlying both acute and chronic itch are just starting to be unraveled. Activated transcription factor 4 (ATF4) belongs to the ATF/CREB transcription factor family and primarily participates in the regulation of gene transcription. Our previous study has demonstrated that ATF4 is expressed in sensory neurons.

Objective: To study the effect of thioridazine on the proliferation and apoptosis of human colorectal cancer SW480 cells.
Methods: SW480 cells were treated with different concentrations of thioridazine, and MTT assay was used to evaluate the cell inhibition rate. Hoechst 33342 staining was performed to demonstrate the cell morphology changes.
