Value of intravoxel incoherent motion and diffusion kurtosis imaging to differentiate hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Background: The differential diagnosis between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is crucial. The individual differences of patients increase the complexity of diagnosis. Currently, imaging diagnosis mainly relies on conventional computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but few studies have investigated MRI functional imaging.

Xyloketal B exerts antihypertensive effect in renovascular hypertensive rats via the NO-sGC-cGMP pathway and calcium signaling.

Xyloketal B (Xyl-B) is a novel marine compound isolated from mangrove fungus Xylaria sp. (No 2508). We previously showed that Xyl-B promoted endothelial NO release and protected against atherosclerosis through the Akt/eNOS pathway.

A novel marine compound xyloketal B protects against oxidized LDL-induced cell injury in vitro.

Xyloketal B is a novel marine compound with unique chemical structure isolated from mangrove fungus Xylaria sp. (no. 2508).
