Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with lower hepatitis B viral load and antiviral response in pediatric population
The interaction between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and chronic hepatitis B infection (CBI) was unclear. We aimed to investigate the association between NAFLD and CBI and the effect of NAFLD on re...

Open AccessSerum Golgi protein 73 is a marker comparable to APRI for diagnosing significant fibrosis in children with liver disease
Serum Golgi protein 73 (GP73) is a promising marker for significant fibrosis in adults. However, current diagnostic value of serum GP73 for liver fibrosis in children is unknown. To investigate the relationshi...

The Clinical Significance of GP73 in Immunologically Mediated Chronic Liver Diseases: Experimental Data and Literature Review
There is significant void in establishing validated non-invasive surrogate biomarkers of liver fibrosis/cirrhosis in chronic liver diseases (CLD). Golgi protein 73 (GP73) has been suggested as a potential seru...

Potential use of serum HBV RNA in antiviral therapy for chronic hepatitis B in the era of nucleos(t)ide analogs
Although the efficacy of nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) has been confirmed for treatment of chronic hepatitis B, long-term therapy has been recommended due to the high frequency of off-therapy viral DNA rebound a...

Open AccessCRISPR/Cas9-mediated p53 and Pten dual mutation accelerates hepatocarcinogenesis in adult hepatitis B virus transgenic mice
The p53 mutation and altered Pten expression are two most common genetic events in Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To confirm the causative role of p53 and Pten somatic m...

Open AccessTraceability, reproducibility and clinical evaluation of Sansure Realtime HCV RNA assay
Accurate quantitative detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA is critical for diagnosis of acute or chronic HCV infection, and for follow-up of virologic response during HCV targeted therapy. In the present s...

Open AccessNovel ALK inhibitor AZD3463 inhibits neuroblastoma growth by overcoming crizotinib resistance and inducing apoptosis
ALK receptor tyrosine kinase has been shown to be a therapeutic target in neuroblastoma. Germline ALK activating mutations are responsible for the majority of hereditary neuroblastoma and somatic ALK activatin...

Open AccessInfluence of CCND1 G870A polymorphism on the risk of HBV-related HCC and cyclin D1 splicing variant expression in Chinese population
The G870A polymorphism in the exon 4/intron 4 boundary of CCND1 gene is thought to influence the generation of two mRNAs (cyclin D1a and cyclin D1b). The “A” allele codes for a truncated variant, cyclin D1b, whic...

Open AccessEffectiveness of HCV core antigen and RNA quantification in HCV-infected and HCV/HIV-1-coinfected patients
The measurement of hepatitis C virus core antigen (HCV-coreAg) has been shown to be an indicator of active HCV infection. The aim of the present study was 1) to investigate the stability and effectiveness of H...

An unbalanced PD-L1/CD86 ratio in CD14++CD16+ monocytes is correlated with HCV viremia during chronic HCV infection
Circulating monocyte subsets with distinct functions play important roles in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, the mechanisms have not been well studied. In this study, we analyzed the distributions ...

TAK1 inhibitor 5Z-7-oxozeaenol sensitizes neuroblastoma to chemotherapy
Treatment failure in high risk neuroblastoma is largely due to development of chemoresistance. NF-κB activation is one of the resistance mechanisms for cancer cells to escape from chemotherapy-induced cell-dea...
