Myeloid cells in hepatocellular carcinoma

Shanshan Wan, Ning Kuo, Ilona Kryczek, Weiping Zou, Theodore H. Welling – 24 April 2015 – Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is highly associated with inflammation. Myeloid cells, including tumor‐associated macrophages and myeloid‐derived suppressor cells, are abundant in the HCC microenvironment and are often associated with poor prognosis. Myeloid cells in HCC play a vital role in supporting tumor initiation, progression, angiogenesis, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance.

Donor hypernatremia before procurement and early outcomes following pediatric liver transplantation

Neema Kaseje, Valerie McLin, Christian Toso, Antoine Poncet, Barbara E. Wildhaber – 23 April 2015 – The demand for transplantable organs far outweighs the supply. Recently, efforts have been made to increase the donor pool by adopting extended criteria for livers, including those from hypernatremic donors. Currently, there is no clear evidence that the use of organs from hypernatremic donors has detrimental effects on pediatric liver transplantation (LT) recipients.
