Article Abstract

The patient was a 52-year-old male, who, after experiencing lower back pain, underwent further investigation and was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma with sacral metastasis. The hepatocellular carcinoma was a 9 cm tumor with a risk of rupture. Liver resection was performed, and lenvatinib was initiated at a dose of 4 mg/day postoperatively. Radical radiation therapy was then administered to address bone metastases. Lenvatinib was discontinued after 15 months due to skin disorders. Seven months have passed since the discontinuation of lenvatinib and 2 years since surgery. The patient's condition has progressed without any recurrence.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 20 (CDK20), also known as cell cycle-related kinase (CCRK), plays a pivotal role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression by regulating β-catenin signaling and promoting uncontrolled proliferation. Despite its emerging significance, selective small-molecule inhibitors of CDK20 remain unexplored. In this study, a known CDK20 inhibitor, ISM042-2-048, was employed as a reference to retrieve structurally similar compounds from the PubChem database using an 85% similarity threshold.

Background: Postoperative late recurrence (POLAR) after 2 years from the date of surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a unique surveillance and management challenge. Despite identified risk factors, individualized prediction tools to guide personalized surveillance strategies for recurrence remain scarce. The current study sought to develop a predictive model for late recurrence among patients undergoing HCC resection.

Viral hepatitis is associated with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Hepatitis A and E viruses are enterally transmitted and typically cause acute self-limited hepatitis. Hepatitis B, C, and D viruses are parenterally transmitted and can cause chronic hepatitis, with potential progression to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background And Aims: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. TGF-β is a promising therapeutic target, but its dual role, as both a tumour suppressor and promoter, complicates its clinical application. While its effects on tumour cells are increasingly understood, its impact on the tumour stroma remains unclear.

Hyperlipidemia is a common chronic disease characterized by elevated levels of lipids in the blood. There is some evidence that suggests that berberine (BBR) might be beneficial for the treatment of hyperlipidemia. However, its low intestinal bioavailability limits its potential therapeutic action.
