Upregulating promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma progression.

: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presents a common malignant tumor worldwide. Although kinectin 1 () is the most frequently identified antigen in HCC tissues, the detailed roles of in HCC remain unknown. This study seeks to clarify the expression status and clinical value of in HCC and to explore the complicated biological functions of and its underlying mechanisms.

Laminarin from Seaweed () Inhibits Hepatocellular Carcinoma Through Upregulating Senescence Marker Protein-30.

This study aimed at investigating the specific roles of laminarin from seaweed () in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its potential mechanisms related to senescence marker protein-30 (SMP-30). Human HCC cell lines, including Bel-7404 and HepG2, were incubated with different concentrations of laminarin (0, 5, 15, 25, 35, and 45 mg/mL). The cell viability and apoptosis rates were detected by WST-8 cell proliferation assay and flow cytometry, respectively.

Knockdown of GCF2/LRRFIP1 by RNAi causes cell growth inhibition and increased apoptosis in human hepatoma HepG2 cells.

Background: GC-binding factor 2 (GCF2) is a transcriptional regulator that represses transcriptional activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) by binding to a specific GC-rich sequence in the EGFR gene promoter. In addition to this function, GCF2 has also been identified as a tumor-associated antigen and regarded as a potentially valuable serum biomarker for early human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis. GCF2 is high expressed in most HCC tissues and cell lines including HepG2.

[Misdiagnosis of pulmonary hydatid cyst rupture: report of 38 cases].

Objective: To improve the clinical recognition of pulmonary hydatid cyst rupture.

Methods: Retrospective analysis of the misdiagnosis of 38 cases of hydatid cyst rupture.

Results: The diagnosis of hydatid cyst rupture was confirmed by surgery and pathological study.
