Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common tumors worldwide, posing a significant threat to the life and health of people globally. LKB1-AMPK signaling pathway plays a significant role in the regulation of cellular metabolism, prolifera...
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play important roles in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). We examined CAF subgroups via gene ontology, pseudo-time, and cell communication analyses and explored their prognostic value in LUAD using a ...
Intravesical drug instillation is a common treatment for bladder cancer, but it suffers from poor targeting and suboptimal patient experience due to the influence of gravity. Here, we innovatively designed a bladder cancer treatment method using sodi...

Dioxins are persistent environmental pollutants that bioaccumulate in the food chain, posing significant risks to human health. Despite their low environmental concentrations, dioxins accumulate in tissues, particularly in top predators and humans, r...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent malignancy in the gastrointestinal tract and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Despite the identification of numerous biomarkers, their non-specific distribu...
Solanine has been shown to inhibit cancer by regulating the expression of apoptosis (Bax, Bcl-2) and metastasis (CDH-1, MMP2) genes in various cancer cell types. We synthesized optimized niosome NPs (NPs) with high solubility and capacity for solanin...
BACKGROUND: Dental pulp cells-derived small extracellular vesicles (DPCs-sEVs) had shown immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and tissue function restorative abilities. Therefore, DPCs-sEVs should be considered as a promising regenerative tool for de...
Toona sinensis, a kind of phytochemicals in traditional Chinese medicine widely used in South-East Asia, has been recognized for its anticancer properties, particularly against various types of cancer. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of T. sin...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants with widespread use and bioaccumulative potential. Short-chain PFAS such as perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA) and perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHxS) have been introduced...
