Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms in pre‑microRNAs (miRNAs) or mature miRNAs may influence miRNA processing or target binding, thus contributing to tumorigenesis and cancer development. The present study aimed to evaluate whether miR‑149 rs2292832 (C>T) and miR‑608 rs4919510 (G>C) are associated with the risk and clinical characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a large‑scale population. miR‑149 rs2292832 and miR‑608...
