AI Article Synopsis
- The imaging revealed a 2.6 cm mass in the common hepatic duct, leading to bile duct dilation, although her liver function tests and tumor markers were normal.
- The patient underwent surgical intervention, which included bile duct resection, cholecystectomy, and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy, while a literature review was performed to gather information on IPNB's features and treatments.
Article Abstract
Intraductal papillary neoplasm of bile duct (IPNB), as a precancerous lesion of cholangiocarcinoma, is a rare biliary tract tumor. A 66-year-old female patient was found to have a bile duct mass by routine examination. The liver function tests and tumor markers were normal. Imaging findings revealed a 2.6 cm mass in the common hepatic duct, accompanied by dilatation of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. The patient underwent open extrahepatic bile duct resection, cholecystectomy and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. We also conducted a literature review to summarize the clinicopathological features and surgical treatments of IPNB.

Positive autoregulation of Sox17 is necessary for gallbladder and extrahepatic biliary duct formation.

Expression of SRY-box transcription factor 17 (Sox17) in the endodermal region caudal to the hepatic diverticulum during late gastrulation is necessary for hepato-pancreato-biliary system formation. Analysis of an allelic series of promoter-proximal mutations near the transcription start site (TSS) 2 of Sox17 has revealed that gallbladder (GB) and extrahepatic bile duct (EHBD) development is exquisitely sensitive to Sox17 expression levels. Deletion of a SOX17-binding cis-regulatory element in the TSS2 promoter impairs GB&EHBD development by reducing outgrowth of the nascent biliary bud.

Introduction: Endotoxemia is a common issue for patients with biliary obstruction. The lung is the most affected organ by endotoxins. Exercise training can alleviate lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung inflammation and resveratrol has biological effects similar to exercise.

N6-methyladenosine (mA) modification is the most common post-transcriptional modifications, which is critical for the metabolism of ferroptosis-related RNAs. Yet, the impact of mA modification on ferroptosis in cholangiocarcinoma (CC) is far from clear. Public databases and tissue arrays were applied to explore the clinical relevance of METTL16 in CC.

Hypoxia is a major obstacle in the treatment of solid tumors because it causes immune escape and therapeutic resistance. Drug penetration into the hypoxic regions of tumor microenvironment (TME) is extremely limited. This study proposes using the unidirectional fluid flow property of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) to overcome drug penetration limitations in the TME.

Background: Autoimmune phenomena can be used in some patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the clinic, but these patients are not autoimmune hepatitis patients.
Aim: To determine whether autoimmunity is present in patients with NAFLD, this study was performed.
Methods: A total of 104 patients with NAFLD diagnosed by liver biopsy at Tianjin Second People's Hospital between 2019 and 2023 were enrolled.
