Longer leukocyte telomere length predicts increased risk of hepatitis b virus‐related hepatocellular carcinoma

8 Mar 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Convincing evidence has indicated that an alteration in telomere length is involved in tumorigenesis. In epidemiologic studies, a strong correlation also has been observed consistently between relative telomere length (RTL) in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) and susceptibility of many cancers. However, whether leukocyte RTL can be used as a predictor of risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)...
