Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In Egypt, the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is approximately 4.7% of chronic liver disease patients due to (HCV) infection. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays an important role in hepatocyte regeneration. A functional polymorphism in EGF 61A>G was identified; itwas associated with higher risk of HCC. OBJECTIVES: to investigate the correlation between the epidermal growth factor (EGF)...
