Abstract Ninety percent of all primary liver malignancies are hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), making liver cancer the third most common cause of cancer‐associated mortality. Different patterns of programmed cell death (PCD) are crucial for the survival of tumors, and they might serve as a prognostic marker for HCC.

ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)‐driven alterations in the immune system can induce immune‐related adverse events (irAEs). Cutaneous irAEs are notable for being the most common and for their early onset; however, the risk factors underlying their development and severity remain unclear. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed 1224 Japanese

When Enzymes Mislead: Assessing the Value of MRCP in Suspected Choledocholithiasis
ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of choledocholithiasis (CDL) requires balancing timely intervention against the risks of unnecessary invasive procedures. Although liver function tests (LFTs) are widely used for risk stratification, their static values and short‐term trends remain poorly defined in predicting persistent common bile duct stones.

Review Article: The Impact of the Gut Microbiome on Ulcerative Colitis Pharmacotherapy
The gut microbiome modulates ulcerative colitis pharmacotherapy through microbial drug metabolism, immune regulation and altered drug bioavailability. Microbial composition influences response to aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics and small molecules, while microbiome‐targeted therapies show emerging promise.

The κ opioid receptor (κ receptor, KOR) is a G protein‐coupled receptor with well established roles in analgesia and immune modulation. Although historically studied primarily in the central nervous system (CNS), growing evidence indicates that κ signalling in peripheral tissues plays an important role in regulating pain, inflammation and immune ...
