IKKα modulates primary sclerosing cholangitis and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common primary liver cancer after hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The risk of ICC is higher in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). To date, the cellular and molecular mechanism underlying the pathological progression of PSC and ICC is poorly understood. IKKa is part of the I B kinase (IKK) complex, which plays an important...
متن کاملA case of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma associated with primary sclerosing cholangitis.
A 31-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the treatment of obstructive jaundice. Dynamic CT scan revealed an ill-defined mass in the right liver, 4.0 3.5 cm in size, involving the right branch of the portal vein (Fig. 1A).

متن کاملSclerosing Cholangitis
INTRODUCTION Sclerosing cholangitis represents an array of chronic, cholestatic diseases of the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct systems. Clinically, this syndrome is characterized by progressive fatigue, pruritus, and in later stages, by abdominal pain, recurrent fever, and jaundice. These symptoms are resultant from inflammatory and fibrosing obstruction of the biliary system. The prog...
متن کاملPrimary sclerosing cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the biliary system that results in progressive fibrosis and strictures of the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. Typical radiological changes on retrograde cholangiography are shown in Figure 1. These strictures cause cholestatic liver disease that may progress to end-stage cirrhosis. The disorder has a strong ass...
