Histologic type predicts disparate outcomes in pediatric hepatocellular neoplasms: A Pediatric Surgical Oncology Research Collaborative study

Scott S. Short et al.

Summary: This study provides the largest detailed dataset on children with hepatocellular carcinoma. It identifies key differences between subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma, which is crucial for improving understanding and clinical management of these rare cancers.

ß-Catenin Sustains and Is Required for YES-associated Protein Oncogenic Activity in Cholangiocarcinoma

Yi Zhang et al.

Summary: YAP induces cholangiocarcinogenesis through TEAD-dependent transcriptional activation and interaction with ss-Catenin. ss-Catenin binds to YAP in iCCA and is required for YAP's full transcriptional activity, revealing the functional crosstalk between YAP and ss-Catenin pathways in cholangiocarcinogenesis.

Hepatoblastomas with carcinoma features represent a biological spectrum of aggressive neoplasms in children and young adults

Pavel Sumazin et al.

Summary: This study provides molecular characterization of hepatocellular neoplasms with HCC features and reveals common underlying biological features in tumors with mixed histological features. These tumors are associated with high mutation rates and alterations in key cancer genes and pathways. Recurrent large-scale chromosomal gains are also observed. Overall, hepatocellular neoplasms with HCC features are associated with poor clinical outcomes.

Safety, tolerability, and anti-fibrotic efficacy of the CBP/I3-catenin inhibitor PRI-724 in patients with hepatitis C and B virus-induced liver cirrhosis: An investigator-initiated, open-label, non-randomised, multicentre, phase 1/2a study

Kiminori Kimura et al.

Summary: This study assessed the safety tolerability and anti-fibrotic effects of PRI-724 in patients with HCV-and HBV-induced cirrhosis. The results showed that PRI-724 did not significantly decrease hepatic fibrosis, but it improved liver stiffness, Model for End-stage Liver Disease score, and serum albumin level significantly.

β-catenin cancer-enhancing genomic regions axis is involved in the development of fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma

Ruhi Gulati et al.

Summary: This study investigates the development mechanism of fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FLC) and identifies the role of cancer-enhancing genomic regions or aggressive liver cancer domains (CEGRs/ALCDs). It finds that beta-catenin is the driver of FLC and inhibiting beta-catenin can prevent the development of FLC.

β-Catenin Activation in Hepatocellular Cancer: Implications in Biology and Therapy

Yekaterina Krutsenko et al.

Summary: Liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular cancer (HCC), has been on the rise globally with the Wnt-beta-catenin pathway playing a significant role in its development. Understanding the activation of this pathway is crucial for developing targeted therapies for liver cancer.

HDAC1-Dependent Repression of Markers of Hepatocytes and P21 Is Involved in Development of Pediatric Liver Cancer

Maria Rivas et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the repression of markers of hepatocytes mediated by HDAC1 is an essential step in the development of aggressive hepatoblastoma. Inhibiting the activity of HDAC1 can increase the expression of hepatocyte markers and p21, while inhibiting cancer cell proliferation.
