Role of magnolol in gastrointestinal cancers: Recent trends and future perspectives. (PubMed, Semin Oncol)
In addition, challenges related to magnolol's poor aqueous solubility, rapid metabolism, and limited bioavailability are discussed, with particular focus on nanotechnology-based delivery systems developed to improve its pharmacokinetic profile and therapeutic performance. This current review provides an integrated overview of magnolol's molecular mechanisms, chemical optimization strategies, and translational limitations in gastrointestinal cancer therapy, and outlines future research directions necessary to support its progression toward clinical application.

Case Report: A liver metastasis 24 years after resection of a very low-risk jejunal gastrointestinal stromal tumor. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Adjuvant imatinib (400 mg/day) was initiated, with no recurrence at 18-month follow-up...It underscores the need for lifelong vigilance, even in low-risk patients, and emphasizes the critical roles of advanced imaging, immunohistochemistry, and molecular diagnostics in diagnosing late metastases. Individualized follow-up strategies and consideration of long-term surveillance for selected low-risk GISTs warrant reevaluation in the era of molecular-targeted therapy.
