PGC1α promotes cholangiocarcinoma metastasis by upregulating PDHA1 and MPC1 expression to reverse the Warburg effect

TL;DR: The study suggests the potential utility of developing the P GC1α-targeted therapies or blocking PGC1α signaling axis for inhibiting CCA metastasis and illuminated that PGC 1α reversed the Warburg effect by upregulating the expression of pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha 1 subunit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upregulated long noncoding RNA PANDAR predicts an unfavorable prognosis and promotes tumorigenesis in cholangiocarcinoma.

TL;DR: The findings showed that lncRNA PANDAR serves as a novel prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for CCA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Platelet-derived Growth Factor Primes Cancer-associated Fibroblasts for Apoptosis

TL;DR: Findings indicate that apoptotic priming of CAF by PDGF occurs via Puma-mediated Bak activation, which can be converted to active full-blown apoptosis by navitoclax or ABT-199 for therapeutic benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circulating Tumor DNA Profiling of Advanced Biliary Tract Cancers

TL;DR: This study, the largest cohort reported to date to the authors' knowledge, demonstrates the feasibility of ctDNA testing in biliary tract cancers, and provides a foundation upon which the field can continue to grow.

Cisplatin plus Gemcitabine versus Gemcitabine for Biliary Tract Cancer

TL;DR: Cisplatin plus gemcitabine is an appropriate option for the treatment of patients with advanced biliary cancer and was associated with a significant survival advantage without the addition of substantial toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of tumour micro-environment heterogeneity on therapeutic response

TL;DR: The dynamic tumour topography varies drastically even throughout the same lesion, so evaluating tumours as complete organs, and not simply as masses of transformed epithelial cells, becomes paramount.

The epidemiology of cholangiocarcinoma.

TL;DR: Some data point to a potential role for chronic liver disease, hepatitis C, and probably hepatitis B infections in the development of ICC, as well as the recent increasing trends of ICC in the United States.
