Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common and lethal type of primary liver cancer, frequently arising from chronic liver injury and inflammation. Despite treatment advancements, HCC prognosis remains poor, emphasizing the need for effective preventive and therapeutic strategies. This study investigates the hepatoprotective and anti-tumor effects of Hongjam, a steamed freeze-dried silkworm powder, in a diethylnitrosamine (DEN) and thioacetamide (TAA)-induced HCC mouse model.

Recent research has suggested a complex interplay between AD and bone health, with individuals affected by AD exhibiting an increased propensity for fractures and falls. Our preclinical studies in PSEN, MAPT P301 S and FDD mice have shown sex-dependent changes in the bone in AD mice, compared to their age-matched wild type mice.
