Efficacy of the-state-of-the-art modalities of systemic and regional chemo-infusion with oxalyplatin (FOLFOX) and irinotecan (FOLFIRI) (162) was compared. Objective response to the former was 40.8%, to the latter--11.9% (p = 0.0002); survival before intrasplenic relapse--9 and 5 months, respectively, (p = 0.0005); overall survival before relapse (median 7 and 4 months, respectively, (p = 0.01). The rate of survival before intrasplenic relapse in the systemic chemo-infusion group was significantly higher (median 10.5 vs. 8.1 months, respectively, (p = 0.03). No significant differences in overall survival were reported (median 15 vs. 13 months, respectively, in the latter group (p = 0.72).

Perioperative Changes in Serum Transaminases Levels Predicts Long-Term Survival Following Liver Resection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Department of Surgery, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and James Comprehensive Cancer Center, Columbus, OH, USA.
Background: We sought to define whether and how hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) as manifested by perioperative aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransaminase (ALT) levels impact long-term outcomes after curative-intent resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Patients And Methods: Intrasplenic injection of HCC cells was used to establish a murine model of HCC recurrence with versus without I/R injury. Patients who underwent curative resection for HCC were identified from a multi-institutional derivative cohort (DC) and separate external validation (VC) cohort.
Efficient Gene Knockdown in the Liver via Intrasplenic Injection of Adeno-Associated Virus Serotype 8 (AAV8)-Delivered Small Hairpin RNA.

The liver is a major organ that performs essential metabolic functions. Developing an efficient and safe method to knock down gene expression in the liver provides an important tool for determining gene function in liver pathophysiology. In this study, we describe a method for intrasplenic injection of adeno-associated virus serotype 8 (AAV8) engineered to express a small hairpin RNA (shRNA) against a target gene of interest, nucleostemin (NS).

Department of Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery, Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, 200127, China.
Background: This study investigated the molecular mechanism of long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1605 (LINC01605) in the process of tumor growth and liver metastasis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Methods: LINC01605 was filtered out with specificity through TCGA datasets (related to DFS) and our RNA-sequencing data of PDAC tissue samples from Renji Hospital. The expression level and clinical relevance of LINC01605 were then verified in clinical cohorts and samples by immunohistochemical staining assay and survival analysis.

Background: Allogeneic hepatocyte transplantation is an emerging approach to treat acute liver defects. However, durable engraftment of the transplanted cells remains a daunting task, as they are actively cleared by the recipient's immune system. Therefore, a detailed understanding of the innate or adaptive immune cells-derived responses against allogeneic transplanted hepatic cells is the key to rationalize cell-based therapies.

Background: Metastasis is the leading cause of death among prostate cancer (PCa) patients. Obesity is associated with both PCa-specific and all-cause mortality. High-fat diet (HFD) is a risk factor contributing to obesity.
