The KIT ligand KITLG promotes portal vein tumor thrombosis by up-regulating COL4A1 through STAT3-SMAD2 signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma

Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. Portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT), a severe complication of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), markedly influences patient prognosis by fostering a hypercoagulable state. However, its molecular underpinnings remain largely unexplored. This study sheds light on the critical role of the KIT ligand (KITLG) in modulating expression of the […]

Prognostic value and immune infiltration analyses of cuproptosis-related genes in hepatocellular carcinoma

Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. The role of cuproptosis, a newly discovered form of programmed cell death, remains poorly understood in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study described by this article was aimed at constructing a novel cuproptosis model for analyzing the clinical features, mutation characteristics and immune profile of HCC associated […]
