概括

过度饮酒会导致肝病和肝癌 (HCC). 与酒精相关的HCC (A-HCC) 了解甚少,缺乏表征和临床前模型,以获得更好的治疗策略.

科学领域:

肝病学肝病学是一种肝病学.
在瘤学瘤学.
胃肠病学胃肠病学

背景情况:

过度饮酒是肝脏疾病的重要全球风险因素,包括肝细胞癌 (HCC).
与酒精相关的HCC (A-HCC) 比与病毒性肝炎相关的HCC了解得更少,由于乙醇的直接致癌途径尚不清楚.
现有的研究表明,与其他类型的HCC相比,A-HCC的临床预后,遗传/表观遗传特征,分子机制和异质性的理解存在差距.

研究的目的:

审查和综合当前关于A-HCC病原和异质性的知识.
探索临床前模型以及A-HCC的表观遗传和遗传特征.
确定未来的研究方向,并讨论酒精对胆管癌和肝转移的影响.

主要方法:

对有关酒精相关肝病和HCC的现有研究的文献综述.
对A-HCC分子机制,遗传和表观遗传变化的研究分析.
在A-HCC研究中讨论临床前模型及其局限性.

主要成果:

A-HCC的发展往往先于与酒精相关的肝硬化,但直接的乙醇致癌性并未完全阐明.
关于A-HCC与其他原因引起的HCC之间的临床,分子和遗传差异存在显著的知识差距.
迫切需要强大的临床前模型来弥合A-HCC的基础研究和临床实践.

结论:

由于A-HCC的特征仍然很差,因此需要进一步研究其独特的病变发生,分子格局和临床行为.
开发有效的临床前模型对于推进A-HCC研究和改善患者治疗结果至关重要.
未来的研究应该专注于了解驱动A-HCC的特定机制及其与其他肝脏恶性瘤的潜在重叠.

Diseases of the Liver and Gallbladder

Diseases of the Liver and Gallbladder

Liver and gallbladder diseases are a significant health concern, with prominent conditions including cirrhosis, hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and gallstones. Jaundice is a common manifestation of liver and biliary disease.
Cirrhosis is characterized by the scarring of hepatic lobules in the liver, which are replaced by fibrous tissue, affecting the liver's normal functioning. NAFLD, on the other hand, is caused by an excessive build-up of fat in the liver, not...

Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols: Hemiacetal Formation

Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols: Hemiacetal Formation

Similar to water, alcohols can add to the carbonyl carbon of the aldehydes and ketones. The addition of one molecule of alcohol to the carbonyl compound forms the hemiacetal or half acetal. As depicted below, in a hemiacetal, the carbon is directly linked to an OH and OR group.

Cancer Prevention

Cancer Prevention

Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.
Some...

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...
