    Abstract Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a considerable burden to patients and health systems. Microvascular invasion (MVI) is a significant risk factor for HCC recurrence and survival after hepatectomy. We aimed to establish a preoperative MVI prediction model based on readily available clinical and radiographic characteristics using machine learning algorithms.
    Methods: Two independent cohorts of patients with HCC who underwent hepatectomy were included in the analysis and divided into a derivation set (466 patients), an internal validation set (182 patients), and an external validation set (140 patients). Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis was used to optimize variable selection. We constructed the MVI prediction model using several machine learning algorithms, including logistic regression, k-nearest neighbors, support vector machine, decision tree, random forest, extreme gradient boosting, and neural network. Performance of the model was assessed in terms of discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness.
    Results: The three most significant variables associated with MVI-α-fetoprotein, protein induced by vitamin K absence or antagonist-II, and tumor size-were identified by the LASSO analysis. Among the machine learning algorithms, the logistic regression model achieved the largest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and was presented in the form of a user-friendly, online calculator. The concordance (C)-statistic of the model was 0.745 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.701-0.790] for the derivation set, 0.771 (95% CI: 0.703-0.839) for the internal validation set, and 0.812 (95% CI: 0.734-0.891) for the external validation set. The Hosmer-Lemeshow calibration test and calibration plot indicated a good fit for all 3 data sets. Decision curve analysis showed the model was clinically useful.
    Conclusions: This study provided a convenient and explainable approach for MVI prediction before surgical intervention. Our model may assist clinicians in determining the optimal therapeutic modality and facilitate precision medicine for HCC.

    Abstract Nanomedicines generally suffer from poor accumulation in tumor cells, low anti-tumor efficacy, and drug resistance. In order to address these problems, we introduced a novel nanomedicine based on dual anti-cancer drugs, which showed good cell nuclear accumulation properties. The novel nanomedicine consisted of three components: (1) dual anti-cancer drugs, 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and chlorambucil (CRB), whose targets are located in the cell nucleus, (2) a nuclear localizing dodecapeptide, PMI peptide (TSFAEYWNLLSP), which could activate p53 by binding with MDM2 and MDMX located in the cell nucleus, and (3) an efficient self-assembling tripeptide FFY. Our nanomedicine exhibited enhanced cellular uptake and nuclear accumulation properties, thus achieving an excellent anti-cancer capacity both in vitro and in vivo. Our study will provide an inspiration for the development of novel multifunctional nanomaterials for cancer diagnosis and therapy.

    Abstract Background and aims: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most common malignant tumors globally. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), as a type of noncoding RNAs, reportedly participate in various tumor biological processes. However, the role of circHDAC1_004 in HCC remains unclear. Thus, we aimed to explore the role and the underlying mechanisms of circHDAC1_004 in the development and progression of HCC.
    Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect circHDAC1_004 expression (circ_0005339) in HCC. Sanger sequencing and agarose gel electrophoresis were used to determine the structure of circHDAC1_004.
    Results: circHDAC1_004 was upregulated in HCC and significantly associated with poor overall survival. circHDAC1_004 promoted HCC cell proliferation, stemness, migration, and invasion. In addition, circHDAC1_004 upregulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and promoted angiogenesis through exosomes. circHDAC1_004 promoted NACC1 expression and stimulated the epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathway by sponging miR-361-3p.
    Conclusions: We found that circHDAC1_004 overexpression enhanced the proliferation, stemness, and metastasis of HCC via the miR-361-3p/NACC1 axis and promoted HCC angiogenesis through exosomes. Our findings may help develop a possible therapeutic strategy for HCC.

    Abstract Background: Hypoxia is a hallmark of cancer, and is closely intertwined with tumor immune evasion. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been implicated in tumor response to immune checkpoint blockades. However, hypoxia-associated circRNAs that orchestrate the association between hypoxia and response to immunotherapy remain poorly understood. Here, we aimed to determine the roles of hypoxia-associated circRNAs in immune escape of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.
    Methods: Differentially expressed hypoxia-associated circRNAs were determined using high-throughput sequencing technology. HCC patients treated with PD-1 blockade were enrolled to assess the clinical significance of circPRDM4. RT-qPCR, western blotting, flow cytometry, T cell-mediated tumor cell killing assay, and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay were used to investigate the roles of circPRDM4 in immune escape of HCC cells in vitro. Patient-derived xenograft mouse models and adoptive human tumor infiltrating lymphocyte-CD8
    Results: We identified circPRDM4 as a hypoxia-associated circRNA in HCC. circPRDM4 was upregulated in responders to PD-1 blockade and associated with therapeutic efficacy. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that circPRDM4 induced PD-L1 expression and promoted CD8
    Conclusions: These findings illustrated that circPRDM4 promoted immune escape of HCC cells by facilitating the recruitment of HIF-1α onto the promoter of CD274 under hypoxia, thereby inhibiting CD8

    Abstract Objective: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have recently been increasingly used in cancer treatment, whereas their clinical application in biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients is uncommon. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ICIs plus capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOX) in the treatment of BTC patients.
    Methods: This retrospective study reviewed 26 unresectable or advanced BTC patients who received ICIs plus CAPOX. The treatment continued until disease progression, uncontrollable adverse event (AE) occurrence, intolerable toxicity occurrence, or voluntary withdrawal.
    Results: The median treatment cycles were 5.5 [interquartile range (IQR): 3.8-8.0]. Complete response, partial response, stable disease, and progressive disease rates were 0.0%, 46.2%, 23.1%, and 30.8%, respectively. Objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 46.2% and 69.2%, correspondingly. Regarding survival, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 6.1 (95% CI: 4.4-7.7) months and 16.5 (95% CI: 5.0-28.0) months; moreover, the 1-year PFS and OS rates were 21.5% and 54.3%, respectively. An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 1-3 (vs. 0) was associated with declined DCR, PFS, and OS (all
    Conclusion: ICIs plus CAPOX chemotherapy exhibit a good efficacy and a manageable safety profile in the treatment of patients with unresectable or advanced BTC.

    Abstract Several studies were carried out to explore the prognostic role of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in pancreatic cancer, however, with contradictory results. The objectives of this study were to summarize the prognostic value of NLR in pancreatic cancer. Embase, PubMed and Cochrane Library were comprehensively retrieved. All the cohort studies focusing on the prognostic value of NLR in pancreatic cancer were eligible. 37 papers containing 43 cohort studies with pancreatic cancer were finally included into this study. The results presented that patients with low NLR might have longer OS when compared to the patients with high NLR (HR = 1.81, 95%CI = 1.59-2.05, P < 0.00001; I

    Abstract Objectives: Feline sarcoma-related protein (FER) is known to play a critical regulatory role in several carcinomas. However, the exact biological function of FER in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) still needs to be investigated. The primary objective of this research was to investigate the unknown function and molecular mechanisms of FER in HCC.
    Materials and methods: The expression level of FER in HCC tissue samples and cells was examined by RT-qPCR, immunohistochemistry and western blot. Cellular and animal experiments were used to explore the effect of FER on the proliferative and metastatic capacities of HCC cells. The crosstalk between FER and NF-κB signaling was explored by western blot. The upstream factors that regulate FER were evaluated through dual-luciferase experiments and western blot assays.
    Results: FER was overexpressed in HCC specimens and HCC cell lines. FER expression levels were positively associated with unfavorable clinicopathological characteristics. The higher the expression of FER was, the worse the overall survival of HCC patients was. The results of loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments indicated that knockdown of FER decreased, while overexpression of FER increased, the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of HCC cells
    Conclusions: The present research was the first to reveal that a decrease in miR-206 levels results in an increase in FER expression in HCC, leading to enhanced cell growth and metastatic abilities

    Abstract microRNAs (miRNAs) were known as transcriptional regulators to regulate the repertoires of target genes during the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we investigated the roles of miR-4262 in the process of HCC. Our results showed that miR-4262 is overexpressed in HCC tissues and hepatoma cell lines (HepG2 and Sk-hep-1). We also found that miR-4262 enhanced the process of cell cycle and inhibited the apoptosis leading to promoted cell proliferation and activity. Moreover, the 3'UTR of PDCD4 was complementary to miR-4262 seed region and we confirmed that PDCD4 is the direct target of miR-4262 with 3'UTR luciferase assay. qPCR and WB analysis revealed that the level of PDCD4 was negatively correlated with the expression of miR-4262 in HepG2 cells. Furthermore, our results demonstrated that miR-4262-promoted cell proliferation was mediated by PDCD4 and miR-4262 can activate the NF-κB pathway to promote the accumulation of nuclear NF-κB/P65. All of these findings suggested miR-4262 may play a role in the development of HCC.
