Immune checkpoint blockade therapy has demonstrated significant therapeutic effects in certain types of cancers. However, there is limited reporting on the influence of physical activity on its efficacy. This study aimed to investigate the impact of physical activity on anti-PDL-1-mediated immune checkpoint therapy and the interplay of immune cells therein.

Purpose: The best way to reduce seroma formation after laparoscopic indirect hernia repair is debated. We noticed that internal ring defect closure in laparoscopic mesh hernioplasty could provide promising outcomes with an effect on diminishing seroma formation. We introduce our closure technique and report our experience.

Abnormal expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) contributes to tumour growth and invasion. MiR-326 expression often down-regulates in several kinds of cancer and low expression of miR-326 is linked with poor prognosis in cancer patients. In the present study, we aimed to explore the modulatory mechanism of miR-326 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Recently, it was reported that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) participated in promoting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) initiation and progression. Herein, we reported that the expression level of LINC01287 was elevated in HCC cell lines and tissues. LINC01287 down-regulation inhibited HCC cells growth and invasion both in vitro and in vivo.

Background: The long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have participated in the promotion of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) initiation and progression. Nevertheless, the biological role and underlying mechanism of LINC01287 in HCC has never been reported.

Methods: The TGCA database was used to explore the abnormal expression of lncRNAs in HCC.
