Early lymph node metastasis is a common clinical phenomenon in many human cancers, which is associated with both aggressive disease and poor prognosis. Clearly, treatments to specifically block dissemination through the lymphatic network would be desirable either as independent therapies or as adjuncts to existing chemotherapy. At the present stage the target vessels for invasion by lymph-metastasizing tumor cells include preexisting tissue lymphatics abutting the tumor mass through either coincidence or mutual chemoattraction, as well as new lymphatic vessels that proliferate either within or around the tumor as a result of lymphangiogenesis. The lymphangiogenesis is regulated primarily by the lymphangiogenic growth factors VEGF-C and VEGF-D generated by tumor cells or host cells including tissue macrophages. Nevertheless, it remains controversial as to whether this metastasis-enhancing effect simply results from an increase of the number of target vessels due to mitogenesis or from other properties of the newly dividing tumor lymphatics.

BACKGROUND:Liver cancer pathogenesis and intervention have attracted increasing attentions. Mesenchymal stem cel s become a popular tool for cel cancer research, because of their low immunogenicity and tumor tropism. At present, mesenchymal stem cel s have been applied to the study of liver cancer.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the advances of mesenchymal stem cel s used in liver cancer in basic and clinical research.
METHODS:An online retrieval of CNKI and Pubmed database was performed by the first author for the articles about mesenchymal stem cel s and effect of modified mesenchymal stem cel s on hepatoma carcinoma cel s published from January 2004 to January 2013. The key words were“mesenchymal stem cel , liver cancer, tumor”in Chinese and English. Repetitive research was excluded, and 47 studies met the inclusion criteria.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Stem cel s are seldom reported in liver cancer, and the limited present study show that mesenchymal stem cel s may have a certain influence on the hepatoma carcinoma cel proliferation, invasion and biological behavior. However, due to the differences of cel lines used by the various laboratories, experimental conditions, animal models, as wel as infusion means of stem cel s, experimental results are also inconsistent. Scholars have conducted a series of studies on the mechanism of the Wnt pathway and tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand pathway. Tropism of mesenchymal stem cel s to tumor cel s, including liver cancer is widely recognized, so scholars imported therapeutic genes and drugs into mesenchymal stem cel s to interfere with the development of liver cancer, and have achieved some progress. This evidence provides new avenues for cel therapy for liver cancer. Less safety studies in vivo and clinical trials of mesenchymal stem cel s are available, therefore security risks deserve further research.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells shed from tumor into blood circulation. These cells are valuable in micrometa-static detection, disease assessment, and therapy and prognosis prediction of tumors. However, the clinical application of CTCs pro-gresses slowly due to its rarity in the blood and difficulty for detection. Given the development of biological techniques, scholars have developed several new methods for enrichment and detection of CTCs. Aptamer-based method shows a good prospect in CTC applica-tion. In this method, CTCs can be rapidly and efficiently captured, nondestructively released, and qualitatively and quantitatively ana-lyzed. This method can also be used to detect single and sub-groups of CTCs.
