Hypoxia has crucial roles in cancer development and progression. Our previous study indicated that cell migration was increased in a hypoxic microenvironment in GBC-SD gallbladder cancer (GBC) cells. Oridonin, a bioactive diterpenoid compound that is isolated from the plant Rabdosia rubescens, has
Hypoxia plays a crucial role in cancer development and progression. Overexpression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF‑1α) has been demonstrated in a hypoxic microenvironment in various tumor types. Metformin has been identified as an antitumor drug in various tumor types. However, its role in
The authors have noted that the address given for the Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in the above article was presented incorrectly: This should have been written as the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Therefore, the author affiliations for this paper should have
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) shows a marked geographical variation in its incidence. Middle-aged and elderly women are more commonly affected. Risk factors for its development include the presence of gallstones, chronic infection and pancreaticobiliary maljunction. Controversy remains in regard to the
This study aims to demonstrate the clinical and biological significance of Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/Tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB) signaling in gallbladder cancer (GBC) through a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments. TrkB expression was detected in 63 (91.3%) out of 69
Long non-coding RNA LINC00152 had been reported as an oncogene in gastric and hepatocellular cancer. In this study, we show that LINC00152 is overexpressed in gallbladder cancer (GBC) tissue samples and cell lines. The high LINC00152 levels correlated negatively with the overall survival time in GBC
The identification of cancer-associated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and the investigation of their molecular and biological functions are vital for understanding the molecular biology and progression of cancer. The lncRNA-LET, a newly identified lncRNA, was demonstrated to be down-regulated in
BACKGROUND
Intratumoral hypoxia has been suggested to drive more aggressive tumor behavior. Our aim was to define whether markers of tumor hypoxia are predictors of outcome in patients with gallbladder carcinoma.
METHODS
From 1996 to 2006, 34 patients underwent resection for gallbladder carcinoma.
BACKGROUND
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that plays a central role in biologic processes under hypoxic conditions, especially concerning tumor angiogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent proangiogenic agent and a multifunctional angiogenic
Gallbladder cancer is the most common malignancy of the bile duct, with low 5-year survival rate and poor prognosis. Novel effective treatments are urgently needed for the therapy of this disease. Here, we showed that cordycepin, the bioactive compound in genus Cordyceps, induced growth inhibition
OBJECTIVE
Heparanase is an endo-beta-glucuronidase that cleaves heparan sulfate and has been implicated in tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. The present study was to analyze the expression of and explore the prognostic value of heparanase and two important transcriptional factors, namely
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the angiogenic and prognostic role of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in gallbladder carcinomas. We assume COX-2 overexpression, neoangiogenesis and glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1) to be involved in disease progression.
METHODS
The carcinoma tissues of 56 patients with gallbladder
OBJECTIVE
We report four cases of advanced malignant cancer of the gallbladder treated with hypoxic hepatic perfusion.
METHODS
Hypoxic hepatic perfusion is currently used to treat diffuse hepatic metastases: the common hepatic artery is occluded with a balloon catheter and then a large amount of
BACKGROUND
The Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene is a tumor-suppressor gene. Recent studies have shown that low expression of VHL has a close relationship with tumor formation, progression, and prognosis. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α is a transcription factor, which exists universally in mammals
