Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein or survivin by short interfering RNAs sensitize hepatoma cells to TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand- and chemotherapeutic agent-induced cell death

TL;DR: Downregulation of the XIAP or survivin enhances cell death by TRAIL and increases sensitivity against some chemotherapeutic agents in HCC cells, and may be a potential target to increase therapeutic sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk factors for the recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with hepatitis C.

TL;DR: Patients who have multiple HCC nodules, low serum platelets and low serum albumin accompanied by HCV infection, should be carefully followed because of the high incidence of new HCC lesions in the remnant liver, even if coagulation RFA is complete.
Journal ArticleDOI

COX-2 inhibitors sensitize human hepatocellular carcinoma cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that COX-2 inhibitors can induce apoptosis and augment TRAIL sensitivity by up-regulation of TRAIL receptors and down- regulation of both survivin and AKT signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteasome inhibition sensitizes hepatocellular carcinoma cells to TRAIL by suppressing caspase inhibitors and AKT pathway.

TL;DR: Combining proteasome inhibitors with a TRAIL agonist may provide a new therapeutic strategy for HCC, as both inhibitors induced apoptosis and augmented TRAIL sensitivity via both the IAP family and AKT pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand and tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptors in viral hepatic diseases

TL;DR: Flow cytometry analysis revealed that both TRAIL-R2 and TRAIL were up-regulated on the cell surface of HepG2 cells with AdCMVLacZ infection, indicating that TRAIL/TRAil-R apoptotic pathways play important roles in the hepatic cell death during viral infection.
