| 1 | The prognostic molecular markers in hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘The prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) stillremains dismal, although many advances in its clinicalstudy have been made. It is important for tumor control toidentity the factors that predispose patients to death. Withnew discoveries in cancer biology, the pathological andbiological prognostic factors of HCC have been studied quiteextensively. Analyzing molecular markers (biomarkers) withprognostic significance is a complementary method. A largenumber of molecular factors have been shown to associatewith the invasiveness of HCC, and have potential prognosticsignificance. One important aspect is the analysis ofmolecular markers for the cellular malignancy phenotypeThese include alterations in DNA ploidy, cellularproliferation markers (PCNA, Ki-67, Mcm2, MIB1, MIA, andCSE1L/CAS protein), nuclear morphology, the p53 geneand its related molecule MDM2, other cell cycle regulators(cyclin A, cyclin D, cyclin E, cdc2, p27, p73), oncogenesand their receptors (such as ras, c-myc, c-fms, HGF, c-met, and erb-B receptor family members ), apoptosisrelated factors (Fas and FasL), as well as telomeraseactivity. Another important aspect is the analysis ofmolecular markers involved in the process of cancerinvasion and metastasis. Adhesion molecules (E-cadherin,catenins, serum intercellular adhesion molecule-1, CD44variants), proteinases involved in the clegradation ofextracellular matrix (MMP-2, MMP-9, uPA, uPAR, PAl), aswell as other molecules have been regarded as biomarkersfor the malignant phenotype of HCC, and are related toprognosis and therapeutic outcomes. Tumor angiogenesisis critical to both the growth and metastasis of cancersincluding HCC, and has drawn much attention in recentyears. Many angiogenesis-related markers, such as vascularendothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growthfactor (bFGF), platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor( PD-ECGF ), thrombospondin ( TSP ), angiogenin,pleiotrophin, and endostatin (ES) levels, as well asinratumor microvessel density (MVD) have been evaluatedand found to be of prognostic significance. Body fluid(particularly blood and urinary) testing for biomarkers iseasily accessible and useful in clinical patients. Theprognostic significance of circulating DNA in plasma orserum, and its genetic alterations in HCC are otherimportant trends. More attention should be paid to thesetwo areas in future. As the progress of the human genomeproject advances, so does a clearer understanding of tumorbiology, and more and more new prognostic markers withhigh sensitivity and specificity will be found and used inclinical assays. However, the combination of some items, i.e., the pathological features and some biomarkersmentioned above, seems to be more practical for now. | Lun-Xiu Qin Zhao-You Tang,Liver Cancer Institute and Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University,Shanghai,China | 2002 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,3: | 162 |
| 2 | DNA-PKcs subunits in radiosensitization by hyperthermia on hepatocellular carcinoma hepG_2 cell line显示文摘AIM: To investigate the role of DNA-PKcs subunits inradiosensitization by hyperthermia on hepatocellularcarcinoma HepG2 cell lines.METHODS: Hep G2 cells were exposed to hyperthermiaand irradiation. Hyperthermia was given at 45.5 ℃Cellsurvival was determined by an in vitro clonogenic assay forthe cells treated with or without hyperthermia at varioustime points. DNA DSB rejoining was measured usingasymmetric field inversion gel electrophoresis (AFIGE). TheDNA-PKcs activities were measured using DNA-PKcs enzymeassay system.RESULTS: Hyperthermia can significantly enhanceirradiation-killing cells. Thermal enhancement ratio ascalculated at 10 % survival was 2.02. The difference inradiosensitivity between two treatment modes manifestedas a difference in the α components and the almost sameβ components, which α value was considerably higher inthe cells of combined radiation and hyperthermia ascompared with irradiating cells (1.07 Gy-1 versus 0.44 Gy1). Survival fraction showed 1 logarithm increase after an8-hour interval between heat and irradiation, whereas DNA-PKcs activity did not show any recovery. The cells wereexposed to heat 5 minutes only, DNA-PKcs activity wasinhibited at the nadir, even though the exposure time waslengthened. Whereas the ability of DNA DSB rejoining wasinhibited with the increase of the length of hyperthermictime. The repair kinetics of DNA DSB rejoining aftertreatment with Wortmannin is different from thehyperthermic group due to the striking high slow rejoiningcomponent.CONCLUSION: Determination with the cell extracts andthe peptide phosphorylation assay, DNA-PKcs activity wasinactivated by heat treatment at 45.5 C, and could notrestore. Cell survival is not associated with the DNA-PKcsinactivity after heat. DNA-PKcs is not a unique factor affectingthe DNA DSB repair. This suggests that DNA-PKcs do notplay a crucial role in the enhancement of cellularradiosensitivity by hyperthermia. | Walter J.Curran George Iliakis | 2002 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,5: | 87 |
| 3 | Effect of arsenic trioxide on rat hepatocarcinoma and its renal cytotoxicity显示文摘AIM: To study the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on rat experimental hepatocarcinoma and its renal cytotoxicity.METHODS: The hepatocarcinoma model was established by diethaylnitrosamine perfusion in stomach of 120 Wistar rats, and the treatment began at the end of 20 weeks.Before the treatment, the rat models were randomly divided into 5 groups. In the treatment groups, three doses of As2O3 were injected into rat abdominal cavity, the total time of drug administration was 4 weeks. Cisplatin control or the blank group was injected into abdominal cavity with equal amount of cisplatin or saline at the same time,respectively. On the 7th, 14th and 28th day after the treatment, the hepatocarcinoma nodules were obtained and the morphologic changes of hepatocarcinoma cells were observed under light and electron microscopes;Immunohistochemistry (S-P methods) was employed to detect the expression of bcl-2, bax and PCNA in hepatocarcinoma tissues; flow cytometry (TUNEL assay)was used to detect the apoptosis of liver cancer cells and the change of cytokinetics. On the 28th day, the kidneys were obtained and their histologic changes were observed under light microscope, and immunohistochemistry (SP stain) was also employed to detect the expression of bcl-2and PCNA. Cisplatin and saline solution were used as the control.RESULTS: As2O3 could induce the apoptosis of rat liver cancer cells and exhibited typical morphologic changes.The incidence of apoptosis of hapatocarcinoma cells was elevated (P=0.001). The elevation was the most higher in the group of middle-dose of As2O3 (1 mg.kg-1), significantly higher than that of the other arsenic groups and the controls (P=0.001). Large dose of As2O3 (5 mg.kg-1) was able to arise the incidence of apoptosis, but also produced a large amount of necrosis and inflammatory reaction. Middle dose of As2O3 dramatically increased the cell number in G2/M phase (P=0.0001), and apoptosis happened apparently.The expression of bcl-2 and bax was related to the dose of As2O3. With the up-regulation of apoptotic incidence, the ratio of bcl-2/bak decreased. But the incidence of apoptosis was not the highest status and the ratio of bcl-2/bax was at the lowest when the highest-dose of As2O3 was used.There was significant difference among the PCNA indexes (PCNA L1) of the five groups. Of them, three arsenic groups all showed decrease of different degrees, and this downregulation was most obvious in group A. There was significant difference among the three groups (P=0.016).Under the light microscope, the rat kidney in the cisplatin group exhibited tubular epithelium swelling and degeneration, protein casts in collecting tubules; While all arsenic groups didn't show the significant changes (P=0.013).In the arsenic groups, the expression of bcl-2 in the renal tubular epithelium was increased (P=0.005), no obvious changes happened to PCNA L1. But in the group of cisplatin,the PCNA L1 increased significantly (P=0.001).CONCLUSION: AS2O3 can induce apoptosis of rat hepatocellular carcinoma cells. And there is optimum dose;too high dose will induce the cytotoxic effect, while certain dose of As2O3 is able to block the cell cycle at G2/M phase.As2O3 had the most remarkable influence on G2/M cells,and it can also induce apoptosis to cells at other phases.As2O3 can restrain the proliferation of rat hepatocellular carcinoma cells, in a dose-time dependent manner.Compared with cisplatin, As2O3 didn't show obvious renal toxicity, which was related to the increasing expression of bcl-2 in renal tubular epithelium, the inhibition of apoptosis and the anti-oxidation effects. | Shao-Shan Wang Ti Zhang Xi-Lu Wang Li Hong Department of Surgery of Dagang Hospital 300270,Tianjin,China Qing-Hui Qi Department of Chinese and Western Integral Surgery of Master Hospital of Tianjin Medical University 300052,Tianjin,China | 2003 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2003,9,5: | 17 |
| 4 | Role of preoperative selective portal vein embolization in two-step curative hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To determine the feasibility and role of ultrasoundguided preoperative selective portal vein embolization (POSPVE) in the two-step hepatectomy of patients with advanced primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).METHODS: Fifty patients with advanced HCC who were not suitable for curative hepatectomy were treated by ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic POSPVE with fine needles. The successful rate, side effects and complications of POSPVE, changes of hepatic lobe volume and two-step curative hepatectomy rate after POSPVE were observed.RESULTS: POSPVE was successfully performed in 47(94.0 %) patients. In patients whose right portal vein branches were embolized, their right hepatic volume decreased and left hepatic volume increased gradually. The ratio of right hepatic volume to total hepatic volume decreased from 62.4 % before POSPVE to 60.5 %, 57.2 %and 52.8 % after 1, 2 and 3 weeks respectively. The side effects included different degree of pain in liver area (38cases), slight fever (27 cases), nausea and vomiting (9cases). The level of aspartate alanine transaminase (AST),alanine transaminase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBIL)increased after POSPVE, but returned to preoperative level in 1 week. After 2-4 weeks, two-step curative hepatectomy for HCC was successfully performed on 23 (52.3 %) patients.There were no such severe complications as ectopic embolization, local hemorrhage and bile leakage.CONCLUSION: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic POSPVE with fine needles is feasible and safe. It can extend the indications of curative hepatectomy of HCC, and increase the safety of hepatectomy. | WuJi Jie-ShouLi Ung-TangLi Wu-HongLiu Kuan-ShengMa Xiang-TianWang Zhen-PingHe Jia-HongDong | 2003 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2003,9,8: | 15 |
| 5 | Significance and relationship between infiltrating inflammatory cell and tumor angiogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues显示文摘AIM: To investigate the relationship between infiltrating inflammatory cell and tumor angiogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and their clinicopathological features.METHODS: The paraffin-embedded specimens from 70 cases with HCC were stained using EliVision immunohistochemistry with mAbs against CD68, tryptase,and CD34. The counts of tumor-associated macrophage (TAM), mast cell (MC) and tumor microvessel (MV) were performed in the tissue sections.RESULTS: The mean counts of TAM, MC, and MV in HCC tissues were significantly higher than those in pericarcinomatous liver tissues (TAM: 69.31± 11.58 vs 40.23±10.36; MC: 16.74±5.67 vs 7.59±4.18; MV:70.11±12.45 vs 38.52± 11.16, P<0.01). The MV count in the patients with metastasis was markedly higher than that with non-metastasis (P<0.01). In addition, the MC count in the patients with poorly differentiated HCC was obviously higher than that with well differentiated HCC (P< 0.01). The correlation analysis showed that the TAM count was significantly correlated with the count of MV(r=0.712, P<0.01), and the MC count was obviously correlated with the MV count (r= 0.336, P< 0.05).CONCLUSION: TAM and MC might be closely related to the enhancement of tumor angiogenesis. The MV count might be associated with tumor invasion and metastasis.Moreover, the MC count might be associated with tumor differentiation and prognosis of HCC. | Shao-Hua Peng Hong Deng Jian-Feng Yang Ping-Ping Xie Cheng Li Hao Li De-Yun Feng | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,41: | 13 |
| 6 | Prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma accompanied by microscopic portal vein invasion显示文摘AIM:To investigate the prognostic factors in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) accompanied by microscopic portal vein invasion(PVI).METHODS:Of the 267 patients with HCC undergoing hepatic resection at Aso Iizuka Hospital,71 had PVI.After excluding 16 patients with HCC that invaded the main trunk and the first and second branches of the portal vein,55 patients with microscopic PVI were enrolled.RESULTS:The patients with HCC accompanied by microscopic invasion were divided into two groups:solitary PVI(PVI-S:n = 44),and multiple PVIs(PVI-M:n = 11).The number of portal vein branches invaded by tumor thrombi was 5.4 ± 3.8(2-16) in patients with PVI-M.In cumulative survival,PVI-M was found to be a significantly poor prognostic factor(P = 0.0019);while PVI-M and non-anatomical resection were significantly poor prognostic factors in disease-free survival(P = 0.0213,and 0.0115,respectively).In patients with PVI-M,multiple intrahepatic recurrence was more common than in the patients with PVI-S(P = 0.0049).In patients with PVI-S,non-anatomical resection was a significantly poor prognostic factor in disease-free survival(P = 0.0370).Operative procedure was not a significant prognostic factor in patients with PVI-M.CONCLUSION:The presence of PVI-M was a poor prognostic factor in patients with HCC,accompanied by microscopic PVI.Anatomical resection is recommended in these patients with HCC.Patients with HCC and PVI-M may also be good candidates for adjuvant chemotherapy. | Ken Shirabe Kiyoshi Kajiyama Norifumi Harimoto Hideaki Masumoto Tatsuro Fukuya Masafumi Ooya Yoshihiko Maehara | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,21: | 10 |
| 7 | Gene expression profiles of hepatoma cell line HLE显示文摘AIM: To investigate the global gene expression of cancer related genes in hepatoma cell line HLE using Atlas Human Cancer Array membranes with 588 well-characterized human genes related with cancer and tumor biology.METHODS: Hybridization of cDNA blotting membrane was performed with 32P-labeled cDNA probes synthesized from RNA isolated from Human hepatoma cell line HLE and noncirrhotic normal liver which was liver transplantation donor.AtlasImage, a software specific to array, was used to analyze the result. The expression pattern of some genes identified by Atlas arrays hybridization was confirmed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)in 24 pairs of specimens and Northern blot of 4 pairs of specimens.RESULTS: The differential expression of cell cycle/growth regulator in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) showed a stronger tendency toward cell proliferation with more than 1.5-fold up-regulation of Cyclin C, ERK5, ERK6, E2F-3, TFDP2 and CK4. The anti-apoptotic factors such as Akt-1 were up-regulated, whereas the promotive genes of apoptosis such as ABL2 were down-regulated. Among oncogene/tumors suppressors, SKY was down-regulated. Some genes such as Integrin beta 8, Integrin beta 7, DNA-PK, CSPCP,byglycan, Tenacin and DNA Topo were up-regulated. A number of genes, including LAR, MEK1, eps15, TDGF1,ARHGDIA were down-regulated. In general, expression of the cancer progression genes was up-regulated, while expression of anti-cancer progression genes was downregulated. These differentially expressed genes tested with RT-PCR were in consistent with cDNA array findings.CONCLUSION: Investigation of these genes in HCC is helpful in disclosing molecular mechanism of pathogenesis and progression of HCC. For the first time few genes were discovered in HCC. Further study is required for the precise relationship between the altered genes and their correlation with the pathogenesis of HCC. | Lian-XinLiu Zhi-HuaLiu Hong-ChiJiang Wei-HuiZhang Shu-YiQi JieHu Xiu-QinWang MinWu | 2003 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2003,9,4: | 10 |
| 8 | The Chinese classification system compared with TNM staging in prognosis of patients with primary hepatic carcinoma after resection显示文摘BACKGROUND: The life expectancy of a patient with primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC) is hard to predict, and it is related to many prognostic factors. The Chinese classification system including five parameters: tumor, vascular thrombosis, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and Child-Pugh stage developed in 1999 was adopted by the 8th National Conference on liver Cancer of the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association in 2001. In this study, the discriminatory ability of the Chinese classification system -was compared with that of the TNM staging in patients for resection of PHC, in addition to the evaluation of prognostic value. METHODS: The data of 246 patients who had undergone resection of PHC from January 1986 to December 2000 (average age, 51 years; male/female ratio, 213/33) were retrospectively studied. Among the 246 patients, 227 were followed up for at least 3 years. RESULTS: The 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, and 10-year tumor-free survival rates were 55% , 30% , 25% , 20% and 18% , respectively. The Chinese classification system was better than the TNM staging system in predicting survival rate of patients with PHC, as confirmed by survival curves shown by the Kaplain-Meier method. The mean survival time was 155, 70, 39, 16, and 4 months in patients with die Chinese classification stages Ⅰa, Ⅰb, Ⅱa,Ⅱb, and Ⅲ, respectively. The 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, and 10-year tumor-free survival rates of the Chinese classification system and TNM staging were statistically significant and had a slightly positive relationship. The predictive capacity of the Chinese classification system was confirmed in any two subgroups of patients undergoing operation. COX proportional hazards regression analysis showed that the Chinese classification system was the only independent prognostic factor for survival. CONCLUSIONS: Taking both tumor extension and liver function into account, we consider that the Chinese classification system making up for the deficiency of UICC TNM staging is more precise in predicting the prognosis of patients with resection of PHC. | Jian-Ming Sheng, Wen-He Zhao, Fu-Sheng Wu, Zhi-Min Ma, Yi-Zheng Feng, Xing-Ren Zhou and Li-Song Teng Department of Oncological Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310003 , China | 2005 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2005,4,4: | 9 |
| 9 | 肝癌组织HSP70和caspase 3的表达意义显示文摘目的:研究热休克蛋白70和caspase 3在肝细胞癌及癌旁肝组织中的表达及其临床意义. 方法:利用免疫组织化学检测70例肝细胞癌及其癌旁肝组织中HSP70和caspase 3蛋白的表达. 结果:HCC中HSP70的阳性率和阳性强度明显高于癌旁肝组织(68.6%VS 31.4%,P<0.01),而caspase3蛋白的阳性率和阳性强度明显低于癌旁肝组织(17.1%vs 35.7%,P<0.01). 在HCC中HSP70和caspase3蛋白的表达强度与HCC的分化程度和肿瘤的大小明显相关,分化愈差和肿瘤愈大HSP70表达愈强(分别为:F=5.219和5.421,P均<0.01)而caspase3蛋白表达愈弱(分别为F=5.944和4.571,P均<0.01). 统计学分析显示在HCC及其癌旁肝组织中HSP70和caspase 3蛋白的表达呈明显负相关(分别为:r=0.4126和-0.5237,P均<0.01). 结论:本文结果提示在HCC发生过程中HSP70的表达可能通过促进细胞的转化和增生及抑制细胞的凋亡,使HCC呈现无限制的生长及恶性程度不断增高;检测HSP70有望能成为判断HCC预后的重要指标之一. | 彭绍华 邓虹 冯德云 郑晖 | 2004 | 世界华人消化杂志2004,12,4: | 8 |
| 10 | 原发性肝癌的中国分期与TNM分期对肝癌切除的预后价值的比较研究显示文摘目的探讨原发性肝癌中国分期与TNM分期对判断手术切除肝癌预后的意义。方法回顾性分析我院1986年1月至2000年12月对246例原发性肝癌患者行手术切除病例的临床资料,其中227例患者随访3年以上。生存率计算采用KaplanMeier法,Longrang比较生存曲线。结果全组术后1、3、5、7、10年无瘤生存率分别为55%、30%、25%、20%及18%。新分期Ⅰa、Ⅰb、Ⅱa、Ⅱb及Ⅲ期术后1、3、5、7、10年无瘤生存期各期间差异均有统计学意义,并与TNM分期有一定相关性。TNM分期Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ及Ⅳ期术后1、3、5、7、10年无瘤生存期差异有统计学意义,然Ⅲ、Ⅳ期间比较统计学差异无统计学意义。结论肝癌中国分期由于兼顾肿瘤与宿主肝功能两方面因素,分期更加精确,在反映切除肝癌预后方面具有重要价值。 | 盛建明 赵文和 马志敏 冯懿正 周杏仁 方宝山 | 2005 | 中华普通外科杂志2005,20,10: | 7 |
| 11 | Local recurrence is an important prognostic factor of hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To clarify the importance of complete treatment by PEIT.METHODS: A total of 140 previously untreated cases of HCC were enrolled in this study from 1988 to 2002. The inclusion criteria were: a solitary tumor less than 4 cm in diameter or multiple tumors, fewer than four in number and less than 3 cm in diameter, without extrahepatic metastasis or vessel invasion. As general principles for the treatment of HCC, the patients underwent transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) prior to PEIT. After the initial treatment of the patients,ultrasonography and computed tomography were performed, and measurement of serum levels of α-fetoprotein (AFP) was determined. When tumor recurrences were detected, PEIT and/or TACE were repeated whenever the hepatic functional reserve of the patient permitted. We then analyzed the variables that could influence prognosis, including tumor size and number, the serum levels of AFP, the parameters of hepatic function (albumin, bilirubin, ALT, hepaplastin test,platelet number, and indocyanine green retention at 15min [ICG-R15]), combined therapy with TACE, distant recurrence, and local recurrence.RESULTS: Univariate analysis identified the ICG test,serum levels of AFP and albumin, tumor size and number,and local recurrence, but not distant recurrence, as significant prognostic variables. In multivariate analysis using those five parameters, the ICG test, tumor size, tumor number,and local recurrence were identified as significant prognostic factors. In both univariate and multivariate analyses, the relative risk for the ICG test was the highest, followed by local recurrence.CONCLUSION: We found that local recurrence is an independent prognostic factor of HCC, indicating that achieving complete treatment for HCC on first treatment is important for improving the prognosis of patients with HCC. | Eiichirou Arimura Kazuhiro Kotoh Makoto Nakamuta Shusuke Morizono Munechika Enjoji Hajime Nawata | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,36: | 7 |

| 13 | Expression of co-stimulator 4-1BB molecule in hepatocellular carcinoma and adjacent non-tumor liver tissue,and its possible role in tumor immunity显示文摘AIM:To investigate the expression of 4-1BB molecule in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its adjacent tissues.METHODS:Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to determine the gene expression of 4-1BB in hepatocarcinoma and its adjacent tissues,and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from both HCC and health control groups.Flow cytometry was used to analyse the phenotypes of T cell subsets from the blood of HCC patients and healthy volunteers,and further to determine whether 4-1BB molecules were also expressed on the surface of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. The localization of 4-1BB proteins on tumor infiltrating T cells was determined by direct immunofluorescence cytochemical staining and detected by confocal microscopy.RESULTS:4-1BB mRNA, which was not detectable in normal liver,was found in 19 liver tissues adjacent to tumor edge(<1.0cm).Low expression of 4-1BB mRNA was shown in 8 tumor tissues and 6 liver tissues located within 1 to 5cm away from tumor edge. In PBMCs, 4-1BB mRNA was almost not detected. Percentage of CD4^+, CD8^+ and CD3^+/CD25^+ T cells, as well as ratio of CD4 to CD8 revealed no difference between groups (P>0.05,respectively),while a significant lower percentage of CD3^+ T cell was found in HCC group as compared to healthy control group (P<0.05).However, 4-1BB molecules were almost not found on the surface of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in HCC and healthy control group.Double-staining of 4-1BB^+/CD4^+ and 4-1BB^+/CD8^+ immunofluorescence on tumor infiltrating T cells was detected in 13 liver tissues adjacent to tumor edge (<1.0cm) by confocal microscopy.CONCLUSION: Although HCC may escape from immune attack by weak immunogenicity or downregulated expression of MHC-1 molecules on the tumor cell surface,tumor infiltrating T cells can be activated via other costimulatory signal pathways to exert a limited antitumor effect on local microenvironment. The present study also implicates that modulating 4-1BB/4-1BBL costimulatory pathway may be an effective immunotherapy strategy to augment the host response. | Wan, YL Zheng, SS Zhao, ZC Li, MW Jia, CK Zhang, H | 2004 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2004,10,2: | 6 |

| 15 | Laser ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma-A review显示文摘A wide range of local thermal ablative therapies have been developed in the treatment of non resectable hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in the last decade.Laser ablation(LA) and radiofrequency ablation(RFA) are the two most widely used of these.This article provides an up to date overview of the role of laser ablation in the local treatment of HCC.General principles,technique,image guidance and patient selection are discussed.A review of published data on treatment efficacy,long term outcome and complication rates of laser ablation is included and comparison with RFA made.The role of laser ablation in combination with transcatheter arterial chemoembolisation is also discussed. | Antony Lawrence Gough-Palmer Wladyslaw Michal Witold Gedroyc | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,47: | 5 |
| 16 | Increased nociceptin/orphanin FQ plasma levels in hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM: The heptadecapeptide nociceptin alias orphanin FQ is the endogenous agonist of opioid receptor-like1 receptor. It is involved in modulation of pain and cognition. High blood level was reported in patients with acute and chronic pain,and in Wilson disease. An accidental observation led us to investigate nociceptin in hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS: Plasma nociceptin level was measured by radioimmunoassay, aprotinin was used as protease inhibitor. Hepatocellular carcinoma was diagnosed by laboratory, ultrasound, other imaging, and confirmed by fine needle biopsy. Results were compared to healthy controls and patients with other chronic liver diseases. RESULTS: Although nociceptin levels were elevated in patients with Wilson disease (14.0±2.7 pg/mL, n=26),primary biliary cirrhosis (12.1±3.2 pg/mL, n=21) and liver cirrhosis (12.8±4.0 pg/mL, n=15) compared to the healthy controls (9.2±1.8 pg/mL, n=29, P<0.001 for each), in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma a ten-fold increase was found(105.9±14.4 pg/mL, n=29, P<0.0001). High plasma levels were found in each hepatocellular carcinoma patient including those with normal alpha fetoprotein and those with pain (104.9±14.9 pg/mL, n=-12) and without (107.7±14.5pg/mL, n=6). CONCLUSION: A very high nociceptin plasma level seems to be an indicator for hepatocellular carcinoma. Further research is needed to clarify the mechanism and clinical significance of this novel finding. | FerencSzalay AndreaHorvath PeterL.Lakatos AnikoFolhoffer KingaDunkel DalmaHegedus KornéliaTekes MónikaBHantos | 2004 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2004,10,1: | 5 |
