Radiological Loco-Regional Treatments for Cholangiocarcinoma: A Systematic Review of the Literature. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most common primary liver cancer and is being diagnosed with increasing frequency worldwide. We performed a systematic review on radiofrequency (RFA), microwave (MWA), irreversible electroporation (IRE), trans‐arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) in CCA. Thirty‐

c‐Rel–dependent Chk2 signaling regulates the DNA damage response limiting hepatocarcinogenesis
In response to genotoxic injury, c‐Rel upregulates ATM‐Chk2‐p53 pathway DNA damage proteins to limiting hepatocarcinogenesis. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related death. The NF‐κB transcription factor family subunit c‐Rel is typically protumorigenic; however, it has recently been reported as a

Chemoembolizing hepatocellular carcinoma with microsphere cored with arsenic trioxide microcrystal
Chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is often suboptimal due to multiple involved signaling and lack of effective drugs. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is a potent chemotherapeutic agent, which can target multiple signaling and have substantial ...
