Takayuki Kogure, Wen‐Lang Lin, Irene K. Yan, Chiara Braconi, Tushar Patel – 30 June 2011 – Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by a propensity for multifocality, growth by local spread, and dysregulation of multiple signaling pathways. These features may be determined by the tumoral microenvironment. The potential of tumor cells to modulate HCC growth and behavior by secreted proteins has been extensively studied. In contrast, the potential for genetic modulation is poorly understood.

Michael D. Thompson, Emily D. Wickline, William B. Bowen, Amy Lu, Sucha Singh, Amalea Misse, Satdarshan P.S. Monga – 30 June 2011 – Prolonged exposure of mice to diet containing 0.1% 3,5‐diethoxycarbonyl‐1,4‐dihydrocollidine (DDC) results in hepatobiliary injury, atypical ductular proliferation, oval cell appearance, and limited fibrosis. Previously, we reported that short‐term ingestion of DDC diet by hepatocyte‐specific β‐catenin conditional knockout (KO) mice led to fewer A6‐positive oval cells than wildtype (WT) littermates.
