Signal regulatory protein (SIRP) ␣1 is a member of the SIRP family that undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation and binds SHP-2 tyrosine phosphatase in response to various mitogens. The expression levels of SIRP␣1 were decreased in HCC tissues, compared with the matched normal tissues. Exogenous expressi

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. We propose that local immune responses in patients with HCC are held in check by tumor-infiltrating CD4(+)CD25(+) T-regulatory lymphocytes (T(reg) cells), which suppress the activity and proliferation of effector C
The team of Liu et al. generated endoderm-derived human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from primary hepatocytes. 1 However, they generated human iPS cells by using viral transgenes. 1 Clinical applications of human iPS cells require avoiding viral transgenes. On the other hand, the reprogrammi
## MASAO OMATA~ We attempted to detect circulating hepatocellular carcinoma by demonstrating hepatocyte-associated mRNA in the nuclear cell component of peripheral blood using nested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction because of the extremely small number of tumor cells in the circula
