Targeted Therapies for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TLDR
Identification of oncogenes that mediate tumor progression, and trials that monitor their products as biomarkers, might lead to personalized therapy; reagents that interfere with signaling pathways required for HCC progression might be used to treat selected populations, and thereby maximize the efficacy and cost benefit.

Effects of SASH1 on melanoma cell proliferation and apoptosis in vitro

TL;DR: Results indicated that the tumor suppressive effects of the SASH1 gene derived from G2/M arrest in A-375 cells, and that the phosphorylation of Cdc2 or the disruption of cyclin B-Cdc2 binding may be responsible for the G2-M arrest.

Development and novel therapeutics in hepatocellular carcinoma: a review.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the epidemiological trend, risk factors, prevention strategies such as vaccination, staging, current novel therapeutics, including the drugs under clinical trials, and future therapeutic trends for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

New progress of non-surgical treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma

TL;DR: The current non-surgical treatments in HCC and the new advances in this field are reviewed, including TACE and sorafenib which could improve survival for selected patients and gene therapy and immunotherapy which are still in testing phases.

Proteomic Analysis and NIR-II Imaging of MCM2 Protein in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: Of the upregulated tumor-related proteins, minichromosome maintenance 2 (MCM2), a DNA replication licensing factor, was one of the most significantly altered proteins, and its overexpression was confirmed using tissue microarray and the first small molecule-based MCM2-targeted NIR-II probe CH1055-MCM 2 was concisely generated and subsequently evaluated in mice bearing HepG2 xenografts.

Functional genomics identified a novel protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type f‐mediated growth inhibition in hepatocarcinogenesis

TL;DR: It is found that PTPRF was induced during cell proliferation by cell‐cell contact and quenched the activated ERK‐dependent proliferation signaling to prevent cell hyperproliferation and tumor initiation.

New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors

TL;DR: A model by which a combined assessment of all existing lesions, characterized by target lesions and nontarget lesions, is used to extrapolate an overall response to treatment is proposed, which is largely validated by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Group and integrated into the present guidelines.

Cancer Statistics, 2009

TL;DR: The most recent data on cancer incidence, mortality, and survival from the American Cancer Society (ACS) is presented in this paper, where the authors compare the three major cancer sites in men (lung, prostate, and colon and rectum [colorectum]) and in two major cancers sites in women (breast and colorectal) over a 15-year period.
