Proteomic profiling of proteins decreased in hepatocellular carcinoma from patients infected with hepatitis C virus
22 Apr 2004
Abstract excerpt
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major cause of death in Japan. It has been suggested that hepatitis C virus (HCV) plays an important role in hepatocarcinogenesis, because of high incidence among the patients. To understand the mechanism of hepatocarcinogenesis after HCV infection, we performed a comparative study on the protein profiles between tumorous and nontumorous specimens from the patients infected...
