Objective This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab plus apatinib in patients with resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as neoadjuvant therapy. Methods Initially, 20 HCC were screened 18 enrolled this open-label, single-arm, phase II clinical trial. Patients received three cycles therapy including doses concurrent for 21 days followed by surgery. Four 8 weeks after surgery, eight adjuvant combination apatinib. Major pathological reactions (MPR), complete (pCR),...

It has been previously reported that IL-22, one of the cytokines secreted by Th17 cells, demonstrates both a protective and inflammatory promotion effect in bowel disease (IBD) through STAT3 signaling activation. We sought to investigate role IL-22 expression colon cancer (CC).The related molecules were detected human CC, detail function mechanism investigated vivo vitro model.Our results demonstrated significant upregulation CC tumor infiltrated leukocytes (TILs) compared peripheral...

Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) associated with small-for-size liver transplantation (SFSLT) impairs graft regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the capability, under specific conditions, of differentiating into hepatocytes. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has potent anti-apoptotic and mitogenic effects on hepatocytes during injury, been utilized in many experimental clinical applications. In this study, we implanted HGF-expressing MSCs grafts via portal vein, using a 30% rat model....

Ischemia-reperfusion and chronic injuries associated with small-for-size liver transplantation (SFSLT) impair the regeneration of graft induce fibrosis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can prevent development fibrosis, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) also attenuate cirrhosis. Our previous studies have demonstrated that higher occurrence fibrosis existed in rats post-SFSLT, implantation HGF/MSCs, human HGF (hHGF)-expressing MSCs, improve regeneration, reduce mortality rats, as well potent...

We conducted a multicenter, partially randomized, platform trial to assess the effectiveness of booster dose an aerosolized or intramuscular adenovirus type 5 vectored COVID-19 vaccine (Ad5-nCoV) in Chinese adults (NCT05855408). Between May 23, 2023, and August 28, 4089 eligible participants were equally randomized receive either Ad5-nCoV via oral inhalation at 0.1 mL (IH Ad5-nCoV, n = 2039) injection 0.5 (IM 2050). Additionally, 2008 who declined but consented participate surveillance...

Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess the ability to migrate toward tumor sites and are regarded as promising gene delivery vehicles for cancer therapeutics. However, factors that mediate this tropism have yet be completely elucidated. In study, through cytokine array analysis, chemokine CCL15 was found most abundant protein differentially expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines compared with a normal liver line. Serum levels HCC patients determined by enzyme linked...

A microarray-based high-throughput screening of human circulating circular RNA (circRNA) was applied with five patients newly diagnosed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), HBV-positive chronic hepatitis (CH) and healthy controls (NC) enrolled. The plasma HCC after hepatectomy also collected. After multiple staged validation, we obtained circRNAs as candidate. Based on the stratified risk score analysis, three increased including circ_0009582, circ_0037120 circ_0140117 were confirmed candidate...

Acute rejection is commonly encountered for long-term survival in liver transplant (LT) recipients and may impact their if severe or recurrent. The aim of this study to examine the therapeutic potential transforming growth factor (TGF-β)-overexpressing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) inducing a local immunosuppression grafts after transplantation. MSCs were transduced with lentiviral vector expressing human TGF-β1 gene; TGF-β1-overexpressing (designated as TGF/MSCs) then transfused into via...
