Yu Guo, Jing Wang, Lu Zhang, Shunli Shen, Ruomi Guo, Yang Yang, Wenjie Chen, Yiru Wang, Guihua Chen, Xintao Shuai – 17 December 2015 – Because the primary surgical treatment options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)—including hepatic resection and liver transplantation—often fail due to recurrence and metastasis, identifying early prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HCC is of great importance.

Yonglong Zhang, Yanfeng Liu, Jinlin Duan, Haibo Yan, Jun Zhang, Huilu Zhang, Qi Fan, Feifei Luo, Guoquan Yan, Ke Qiao, Jie Liu – 13 December 2015 – Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer‐related death. However, the underlying mechanism during hepatocarcinogenesis remains unclarified. Stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) is a powerful quantitative strategy for proteome‐wide discovery of novel biomarkers in cancers. Hippocalcin‐like 1 (HPCAL1) is a calcium sensor protein.

To date, these two approaches have never been compared.

Han‐Yue OuYang, Jing Xu, Jun Luo, Ru‐Hai Zou, Keng Chen, Yong Le, Yong‐Fa Zhang, Wei Wei, Rong‐Ping Guo, Ming Shi – 13 December 2015 – Although many staging classifications have been proposed for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), determining a patient's prognosis in clinical practice is a challenge due to the molecular diversity of HCC. We investigated the relationship between MEP1A, a candidate oncogene, and clinical outcomes of HCC patients; furthermore, we explored the role of MEP1A in HCC.
