Tumor enhancement at contrast-enhanced CT and Gd-enhanced MRI for the assessment of treatment response of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after sorafe…
2012
Scopo: To investigate whether arterial enhancement of advanced HCC during pre-treatment and follow-up contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) or Gd-enhanced MRI (Gd-MRI) can be used to predict tumor response to sorafenib. Materiali e metodi: Seventeen patients (12M, 5F; mean age: 69 years) receiving sorafenib for inoperable HCC between 2007 and 2010 were included. Median interval time between pre-treatment and follow-up CECT or Gd-MRI was 160 days. Tumor arterial enhancement was measured at baseline and follow-up: (tumor attenuation/intensity on arterial phase – tumor attenuation/intensity on unenh! anced images)/(tumor attenuation/intensity on unenhanced images) x 100. Response was assessed according …

Assessing the impact of COVID-19 on liver cancer management (CERO-19)
2021
[Background & Aims] The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has posed unprecedented challenges to healthcare systems and it may have heavily impacted patients with liver cancer (LC). Herein, we evaluated whether the schedule of LC screening or procedures has been interrupted or delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Severe metabolic alterations in liver cancer lead to ERK pathway activation and drug resistance
2020
Background: The extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway regulates cell growth, and is hyper-activated and associated with drug resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Metabolic pathways are profoundly dysregulated in HCC. Whether an altered metabolic state is linked to activated ERK pathway and drug response in HCC is unaddressed. Methods: We deprived HCC cells of glutamine to induce metabolic alterations and performed various assays, including metabolomics (with 13C-glucose isotope tracing), microarray analysis, and cell proliferation assays. Glutamine-deprived cells were also treated with kinase inhibitors (e.g. Sorafenib, Erlotinib, U0126 amongst other MEK inhibitors). …
