Combined functional genome survey of therapeutic targets for hepatocellular carcinoma.
PURPOSE The outcome of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has remained unsatisfactory. Patients with HCC suffer from chronic hepatitis or liver cirrhosis, and their reserve liver function is often limited. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN To develop new therapeutic agents that act specifically on HCC but interfere only minimally with residual liver function, we searched for genes that w...
متن کاملMAGE antigens: therapeutic targets in hepatocellular carcinoma?
The challenging aim of cancer immunotherapy is to selectively target the cellular destruction mechanisms of the immune system towards malignant cells. Targeting requires the specificity conferred by protein sequences that are exclusively, or very selectively, expressed by tumor cells and that are recognized by effector killer lymphocytes. A tumor antigen can be defined as a biomolecule (most of...
متن کاملNoncoding RNA as therapeutic targets for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Recent studies have suggested that noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) contribute to the pathogenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These RNA genes may be involved in various pathobiological processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis. Aberrant expression of ncRNA resulting from deregulated epigenetic, transcriptional, or posttranscriptional ...
متن کاملFunctional Roles and Therapeutic Applications of Exosomes in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Exosomes are important in intercellular communication. They assure the horizontal transfer of specific functional contents (i.e., proteins, lipids, RNA molecules, and circulating DNA) from donor to recipient cells. Notably, tumor-derived exosomes (TDEs) appear to be an important vehicle of specific signals in cancer, impacting on tumor growth and metastasis. Recent researches point to the chara...
متن کاملPreclinical studies of 166Ho-chitosan for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma
Introduction: Recently, due to the special characteristics of 166Ho and chitosan, 166Ho-chitosan complex was developed for treatment of tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma. This complex has been lately prepared with high radiochemical purity in our lab. The preclinical studies of the complex however should be performed to evaluate the tracer concentration in target and...
