Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer-associated death globally. Liver transplantation (LT) has emerged as a key treatment for patients with HCC, and the Milan criteria have been adopted as the cornerstone of the selection policy. To allow more patients to benefit from LT, a number of expanded criteria have been proposed, many of which use radiologic morphological characteristics with larger and more tumors as surrogates to predict outcomes. Other groups developed indices incorporating biological variables and dynamic markers of response to locoregional treatment. These expanded selection criteria achieved satisfactory results with limited liver supplies. In addition, a number of prognostic models have been developed using clinicopathological characteristics, imaging radiomics features, genetic data, and advanced techniques such as artificial intelligence. These models could improve prognostic estimation, establish surveillance strategies, and bolster long-term outcomes in patients with HCC. In this study, we reviewed the latest findings and achievements regarding the selection criteria and post-transplant prognostic models for LT in patients with HCC.

Objective To investigate the effect of triptolide on cerebral ischemia- reperfusion injury （CIRI） and explore its molecular mechanism. Methods One hundred and forty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, low, medium, high dose of triptolide group and butylphthalide group, with 24 rats in each group. The CIRI rat model was established by blocking the middle cerebral artery for 2 hours. 3 days before modeling, the rats in each group were ip administration once a day. 24 hours after reperfusion, the neurological deficit score was detected, the rate of cerebral infarction was measured by TTC staining, the blood brain barrier （BBB） permeability was detected by EB penetration test. The pathological changes neurons in the ischemic penumbra cortex were observed by HE and TUNEL staining. The content of inflammatory factors in ischemic cerebral cortex were detected by Elisa method. The expression of TLR4/NF-κB pathway related proteins were detected by Western blot. Results Compared with the model group, the neurological deficit score, cerebral infarction rate and EB content in the triptolide middle, high dose groups and the butylphthalide group were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. The pathological changes of cortical neurons in the ischemic penumbra were significantly improved, and the apoptosis rate of neurons was significantly decreased （P<0.05）. The content of TNF-α, IL-1β and the expression of TLR4, p-NF-κB, cleaved caspase-3, Bax were significantly decreased, the expression of Bcl-2 was significantly increased, the ratio of p-NF-κB/NF-κB and Bax/Bcl-2 were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. The regulatory effect of the high dose triptolide group on various detection indexes were better than that of the butylphthalide group （P<0.05）. Conclusion Triptolide could protect the permeability of BBB, improve the neurological deficit and neuropathy in CIRI rats, and reduce the rate of cerebral infarction, its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB pathway and which mediated inflammatory response and neuronal apoptosis.

Objective: To analyze the HLA typing and STR loci chimerism in a patient with recurrent acute lymphoblastic leukemia after HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods: HLA typing was performed on peripheral blood, buccal swabs and saliva samples after transplantation using PCR-sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes (PCR-SSOP) and next-generation sequencing (NGS). Additionally, STR analysis was conducted on these samples using a 21-locus STR assay kit to detect STR loci. Results: The HLA typing and STR locus outcomes of the patient's peripheral blood and the second saliva sample post-transplantation were in full concordance with the test results of the donor (father), whereas the HLA typing and STR locus results derived from the buccal swabs and the first saliva sample indicated chimerism between the donor and the recipient. Conclusion: In the follow-up and monitoring after transplantation, apart from focusing on peripheral blood samples, it is recommended to regularly monitor HLA typing and STR loci chimerism in patients' buccal swabs and saliva samples to comprehensively evaluate the transplantation effect and recurrence risk.
