Enhancement of gemcitabine sensitivity in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma through Saikosaponin-a mediated modulation of the p-AKT/BCL-6/ABCA1 axis

Abstract

This study highlights the synergistic potential of SSA combined with Gemcitabine in enhancing therapeutic efficacy against ICC and identifies ABCA1 as a key biomarker for drug responsiveness. Furthermore, the introduction of the novel PDOTs microfluidic model provides enhanced insights into ICC research. This combination strategy may provide a novel approach to overcoming treatment challenges in ICC.
