Background And Aim: In our study, we aimed to investigate the effect of ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD)mediated si-CyclinD1 (CCND1) on the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.
Patients And Methods: Bioinformatics analysis was performed to detect the difference of CCND1 expression of HCC and normal liver tissues. After treatment with UTMDmediated si-CCND1, the growth and apoptosis of HepG2 cells were detected by flow cytometry, MTT, EdU staining, colony formation assay, Hoechst 33,258 staining and Western blot analysis. The growth of HepG2 cells in vivo was also studied via xenograft tumor in nude mice.
Results: CCND1 was highly expressed in HCC tissues and HCC cell lines. UTMDmediated si-CCND1 could inhibit the growth of HepG2 cells and promote apoptosis via suppression of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. UTMDmediated si-CCND1 could also suppress the growth of HepG2 cells in vivo.
Conclusion: Our study provided evidence that UTMDmediated si-CCND1 could inhibit the growth of HepG2 cells and promote apoptosis via suppression of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Cold‑inducible RNA‑binding protein (CIRP) is a cold shock protein implicated in the regulation of multiple biological processes depending on its cellular localization. However, to the best of our knowledge, the role of CIRP in liver regeneration and injury after hepatectomy has not been investigated. The present study was therefore designed to explore whether CIRP is involved in liver regeneration after hepatectomy and its specific role and underlying molecular mechanism.

Many cancers have displayed resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs over the past few decades. EGFR has emerged as a leading target for cancer therapy inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. Besides, studies strongly suggest that blocking telomerase activity could be an effective way to control the growth of certain cancer cells.

Selenium (Se) intake or selenoprotein overexpression can cause abnormal glucose metabolism and increase the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The purpose of this study is to observe whether glycolysis bypass in the de novo serine synthesis pathway (SSP) is activated under high-Se stress in vitro. Initially, HCT-116, L02, HepG2, and differentiated C2C12 cells were exposed to five selenomethionine (SeMet) concentrations (0.

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a critical biomarker associated with various physiological and pathological processes, making its detection essential for disease diagnosis and biomedical research. In this study, we developed a novel, simple, and portable visual quantification method for ALP activity in cells using an efficient CuZnS nanomaterial with peroxidase-like properties, integrated into a smartphone-based platform for enhanced usability. The CuZnS nanomaterial catalyzes the breakdown of H₂O₂, generating ·OH radicals that oxidize the colorless substrate TMB into blue oxTMB, which is subsequently reduced back to TMB by ascorbic acid (AA).

To compare the effectiveness and safety profile of tenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), especially the effects on lipid metabolism in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B. A retrospective study was conducted on the virological response rate, biochemical response rate, renal function indicators, and lipid metabolism status of 159 cases with chronic hepatitis B (72 cases with TMF and 87 cases with TAF) after 48 weeks of antiviral treatment. The effects of the two drugs on lipid metabolism were further explored through cell and animal experiments.
