Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental process important for cell
fate determination. Fibroblasts, a product of EMT, can be reset into induced pluripotent stem …

Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by defined
factors. However, the low efficiency and slow kinetics of the reprogramming process have …

Purpose: We assessed the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab [an anti-programmed death (PD-1)
mAb] plus apatinib (a VEGFR-2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor) in patients with advanced …

Many noninvasive methods for diagnosing liver fibrosis (LF) have been proposed. To
determine the best method for diagnosing LF in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), we …

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been generated with varied efficiencies
from multiple tissues. Yet, acquiring donor cells is, in most instances, an invasive procedure …

Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS) technology appears to be a general strategy to generate
pluripotent stem cells from any given mammalian species. So far, iPS cells have been …

The aspartate aminotransferase‐to‐platelet ratio index (APRI) and fibrosis index based on
the four factors (Fibrosis 4 index; FIB‐4) are the two most widely studied noninvasive tools for …

The umbilical cord and placenta are extra-embryonic tissues of particular interest for regenerative
medicine. They share an early developmental origin and are a source of vast amounts …

Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is associated with inflammation, and roughly
30 % of the global population shows serological evidence of current or past infection with …

Recent studies have suggested that exploring the potential mechanisms regulating ferroptosis
vulnerability may contribute to improving the systemic therapeutic efficacy in HCC. High-…
