We performed gene expression profiling of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma (CC), and mixed type of combined HCC and CC (CHC). In comparison of the profiles, a novel class of HCC expressing CC-like traits was identified. Gene expression profiling of 70 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)...

Shiga toxins (Stxs) produced by Shiga toxin-producing bacteria Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 and select serotypes of Escherichia coli are the most potent known virulence factors in the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic colitis progressing to potentially fatal systemic complications such as acute renal f...
A novel Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) variant, KPC-55, produced by a K. pneumoniae ST307 strain was characterized. K. pneumoniae strain BS407 was recovered from an active surveillance rectal swab of a patient newly admitted to a general hospital in Busan, South Korea...
Individual variability exists in parkinsonian motor symptoms despite a similar degree of nigrostriatal dopamine depletion in Parkinson's disease (PD), called motor reserve. We enrolled 397 patients newly diagnosed with PD who underwent dual-phase 18F-FP-CIT PET upon initial assessment. In...

Background

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal disease with no effective treatment. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a critical stage during the development of fibrosis. To assess the effect of sulforaphane (SFN) on the EMT and fibrosis using an in vi...
Background: Children and adolescents are pivotal in the transmission of influenza, and vaccination remains the most effective preventive measure. Cell-based influenza vaccines offer advantages over traditional egg-based vaccines by reducing egg-adapted mutations and improving antigenic match....

Background/aims

To evaluate the usefulness of gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GerdQ) and reflux symptom index (RSI) for diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in patients with suspected laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) symptoms (cough, hoarseness, globus, and throat...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Although anticoagulation with warfarin is recommended as an international normalized ratio (INR) of prothrombin time between 2.0 and 3.0 and mean time in the therapeutic range (TTR) ≥70%, little has been proven that universal criteria might be suitable in Korean atrial fibr...
Bovine coronavirus (BCoV) is an etiological agent associated with winter dysentery (WD), prevalent in adult cattle during the winter. Although we previously detected, isolated, and characterized BCoV strains from adult cattle with WD (WD-BCoV strains) during the winter in South Korea, the precise ep...

Introduction

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) might be associated with host-cell mediated immunity, which could be partly reflected by peripheral blood cell counts. In addition, lymphocyte-predominant breast cancer (LPBC), which was defined as tumors having high TIL levels, showed a fav...
