Article Synopsis
- Anti-angiogenic agents, such as metronomic capecitabine and thalidomide, were tested for their effectiveness in treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) when combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
- In a study with 50 patients, those receiving the combined treatment had a significantly higher tumor response rate (68.2%) at 12 months compared to those who only had RFA (35.7%).
- The treatment also resulted in lower levels of serum circulating endothelial cells (CECs) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in patients receiving the combined therapy, suggesting a possible mechanism behind the observed improvement in outcomes.

Objective: To investigate the effect of yizhi jiannao granule concentration fluid (YCF) on the behavior, the apoptosis rate of hippocampus neuron and the expression of apoptosis gene Bcl-2, Bax in senescence accelerated mice Senile-Prone/8 (SAMP/8), and to discuss some mechanism of traditional chinese medicine YCF in improving the capability of learning and memory.
Methods: Forty 6-month old SAMP/8 mice were randomly divided into the old group, huperzine A (Hup-A) group and YCF group. Ten 4-month old SAMP/8 mice were served as a young control group.
