Two Decades of Multimodal Management of Colorectal Liver Metastases With Long‐Term Outcomes

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The management of patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is complex and requires a tailored approach based on disease extent, patient age, and comorbidities. Given the heterogeneity in presentation and evolving treatment algorithms, prognostic factors for long‐term survival following liver resection are contested.

Medical treatment of early stage and rare histological variants of epithelial ovarian cancer [PDF]

, 2015
Epithelial ovarian cancer is often considered a single pathological entity, but increasing evidence suggests that it is rather a group of different neoplasms, each with unique pathological characteristics, molecular features, and clinical behaviours ...

Diagnostic Impact of Liver Biopsy Among Antinuclear Antibody Positive Individuals With Mild Liver Enzyme Elevation

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

Targeting hexokinase 2 to induce breast cancer cell senescence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is a key enzyme linked to high tumour cell proliferation. Its inhibitors such as 3‐bromopyruvic acid (3‐BP) induce cancer cell death, highlighting HK2 modulation as potential anti‐cancer treatment. However, standard chemotherapies often cause the emergence of senescent cancer cells, which goes along with cell ...

Aspartate Transporter SLC1A3 Promotes Colorectal Cancer via MDM2‐p53 Pathway and M2 Macrophage Polarization

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
SLC1A3 promotes colorectal cancer progression by transporting extracellular aspartate into tumor cells, thereby activating the PKC/MDM2/p53 pathway to enhance proliferation. Reduced extracellular aspartate, combined with p53‐dependent suppression of CSF2 and IL17C, drives M2 macrophage polarization via immune modulation, macrophage recruitment, and M2 ...

Capecitabine-induced cicatricial ectropion: A case review

The Pan-American Journal of Ophthalmology
Capecitabine, an oral prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), offers a more targeted chemotherapeutic approach, reducing systemic side effects. However, cases of ocular side effects have been described in the literature. We report the case of a 94-year-old man
