A combined miR-34a and arsenic trioxide nanodrug delivery system for synergistic inhibition of HCC progression after microwave ablation
Abstract Background Microwave ablation (MWA) has become an alternative treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but it does not eliminate the risk of recurrence and metastasis after treatment. Recent studies have demonstrated that miR-34a presents decreased gene expression in resid...
