Article Synopsis
  • DTL, a protein involved in the CRL4A complex, is crucial for maintaining genome stability and has been linked to various cancers, but its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) needs more exploration.
  • Research involving a clinical cohort and RNA-sequencing indicates that DTL is associated with patient outcomes in HCC and could be a useful prognostic marker.
  • DTL enhances HCC cell growth, metastasis, and drug resistance, and is activated by HIF-1α in low-oxygen conditions, suggesting it might be a potential target for treatment and diagnosis in HCC.

Double polymeric grafted layer is constructed by two steps of chemical reaction, in which two polymers had been used, respectively polydopamine (PDA) film and modified PASS (NH-PASS) resin containing amine group, as the interphase in carbon fiber reinforced poly(arylene sulfide sulfone) (PASS) composite (CF/PASS) to work on enhancing the interfacial property. All the test results of chemical components and chemical structures on the carbon fiber surface show that the double polymeric grafted layer was constructed successfully with PDA and NH-PASS chains. And obvious characteristics of thin PDA film and a polymer layer can be clearly seen in the morphology of modified carbon fiber.

Rationale: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of intratumoral injection of chemotherapeutics in improving the quality of life and survival of patients with pancreatic carcinoma.

Patient Concerns: We present a case series of 5 patients with unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Diagnoses: Patients diagnosed with unresectable poorly differentiated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by intraoperative frozen biopsyor percutaneous biopsy.

Through a structure-based molecular hybridization approach, a series of novel quinazolinyl-diaryl urea derivatives were designed, synthesized, and screened for their in vitro antiproliferative activities against three cancer cell lines (HepG2, MGC-803, and A549). Six compounds (7 g, 7 m, 7 o, 8 e, 8 g, and 8 m) showed stronger activity against a certain cell line compared with the positive reference drugs sorafenib and gefitinib. Among the six compounds, 8 g exhibited the strongest activity.

In this study, two series of 3-oxo-3H-benzo[f]chromene-2-carboxylic acid derivatives (compounds 5a-i and 6a-g) were synthesized. Their in vitro proliferation inhibitory activities against the A549 and NCI-H460 human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines were evaluated. Their photophysical properties were measured.
