Hepatocellular carcinoma is the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Neural regulation plays an important role in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma, and activation of sympathetic nervous system can promote the migration and invasion of cancer cells. However, little research has been conducted on how the vagus nerve influences hepatocellular carcinoma. In this study, we found that the expression of vesicular acetylcholine transporter, a biomarker of vagus nerve, was associated...
Since the introduction of antiepidermal growth factor receptor (anti-EGFR) monoclonal antibodies (moAbs), the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) has become crucially dependent on the mutation profile of the tumour over the last two decades. Recently, rechallenge strategy with cetuximab-based chemotherapy has demonstrated to be active in a subgroup of patients whose tumour maintained wild-type RAS and RAF status. In this setting, liquid biopsy may replace tissue sample for the identification...
Gliomas are the most common and aggressive type of primary brain cancer in adults. The expression of transmembrane protein 45A (TMEM45A) in glioma patients and glioma cell lines was analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR. The influence of TMEM45A on the survival of glioma patients was also explored in this study. To verify the interaction between TMEM45A and key genes, correlation analysis of expression levels and the siRNA knock down method were performed. TMEM45A was upregulated in glioma tissues,...
In the present study, to delve into the effect of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) combined with temozolomide (TMZ) on high-grade glioma cells and related mechanism, six cases of high-grade glioma cells from patient’s tumor tissues were cultured. 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo (-z-y1)-3,5-di- phenytetrazoliumromide 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo (-z-y1)-3,5-di- phenytetrazoliumromide (MTT) assay was performed to detect cell proliferation and toxicity.

With unique advantages, the small-molecule anticancer drugs have recently gained growing attention. Particular strategies, exemplified by high-throughput screening, fragment-based drug discovery, virtual screening and knowledge-based design, have been developed to identify active compounds. However, such screens generally rely on sophisticated and expensive instrumentations. Herein, we developed a simple spheroids 3D culture system to enable direct screening of small molecules with reliable results....
To evaluate the predictive value of preoperative biochemical marker [platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR)] in patients with advanced hepatocellular cancer receiving transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) plus targeted molecular therapy (apatinib) treatment. Clinical records of 134 patients receiving the treatment of TACE + apatinib (TACE-A) and the treatment of TACE alone were compared in a single-center study. Time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) were compared between TACE-A and TACE...
Heparanase is an endoglycosidase that degrades heparan sulfate side chains of heparan sulfate-proteoglycans. It liberates heparan sulfate-bound growth factors and thereby promotes blood vessel sprouting and angiogenesis. The subterranean blind mole rat, Spalax, is a wild mammal that lives most of its life in underground tunnels where it experiences sharp fluctuations in oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. We described two splice variants of heparanase from Spalax, Splice 7 and splice 36, both devoid...

Summary Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non‐invasive, high‐resolution imaging technique with a growing impact in dermatology. The principle of OCT is comparable to that of sonography, except that it uses infrared laser light instead of ultrasound waves. It has been clinically demonstrated that OCT is suitable for discriminating between different types of non‐melanoma skin cancer at an early stage of disease. Optical coherence tomography generates two‐ or three‐dimensional images of up to...

UAS has shown favorable success rates and low morbidity compared with traditional soft tissue and...
Unknown primary squamous cell carcinoma metastatic to cervical lymph nodes is a relatively rare tumor presentation, although the incidence may be increasing along with the rising incidence of human papilloma virus–mediated oropharyngeal cancers.

Horror entertainment is a thriving and paradoxical industry. Who are the consumers of horror, and why do they seek out frightening media? We provide support for the threat simulation theory of horror, according to which horror media provides a form of benign masochism that offers negative emotional stimulation through simulation of threat scenarios. Through an online survey of genre use and preference as well as personality traits and paranormal beliefs (n = 1,070), we find that sensation seeking...
Intrinsic to an evolved disease avoidance account of disgust is Darwin’s assumption of continuity between the emotional lives of humans and animals. However, beyond the case of avoiding stimuli that taste bad, there has been little exploration of the existence of basic disgust elicitors in animals. Moreover, one influential perspective holds that disgust is unique to humans—a preadaptation of distaste that expands through culture to include a wide range of elicitors (e.g., Rozin, 2015). The present...
People often experience anger and/or disgust when observing wrongdoings. It is considered that anger and disgust elicited by moral violations are associated with different social functions: Anger motivates direct punishment and disgust motivates indirect punishment. However, within the domain of morality, some scholars question the distinctness of anger and disgust and doubt the relevance of disgust to moral judgments. By reanalyzing data from a previous study, we first confirmed that self-reported...
Previous studies have highlighted the influence of conditional mating strategies in attractiveness preferences. “Good genes” and dominance cues are perceived as attractive when considering short-term relationships. In contrast, cues for better parenting abilities and trustworthiness are considered more attractive when participants ponder a long-term relationship. We investigated women’s and men’s attractiveness preferences in other-sex faces that were structurally altered along a continuum of apparent...
