ABSTRACT Aim In Fontan‐associated liver disease (FALD), chronic congestion often confounds conventional fibrosis markers, complicating surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although lymphatic dysfunction is fundamental to Fontan physiology, its contribution to hepatocarcinogenesis remains unclear.

ABSTRACT Background and Aim The optimal treatment strategy for patients with intermediate‐stage hepatocellular carcinoma beyond the up‐to‐seven criteria (Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer B2) remains uncertain. Although transarterial chemoembolization has long been the standard of care, its efficacy is limited in this subgroup, and systemic therapies have ...

ABSTRACT Background Durvalumab plus tremelimumab (Dur/Tre) has shown promising efficacy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but predictive biomarkers remain unclear. This study aimed to determine whether early changes in peripheral blood lymphocyte counts during Dur/Tre therapy can predict clinical outcomes.

20th Anniversary of human‐induced pluripotent stem cells and the role of microscopy
Abstract It has been 20 years since the pioneering work of Shinya Yamanaka and Kazutoshi Takahashi at Kyoto University led to the first successful generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from mouse embryonic and adult fibroblast cells. iPSCs have the capacity to differentiate into any type of cell in the human body, and as such, they have ...
