Epigenetic priming in chronic liver disease impacts the transcriptional and genetic landscapes of hepatocellular carcinoma
4 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) usually arise from chronic liver disease (CLD). Precancerous cells in chronically inflamed environments may be 'epigenetically primed', sensitising them to oncogenic transformation. We investigated whether epigenetic priming in CLD may affect HCC outcomes by influencing the genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of HCC. Analysis of DNA methylation arrays from 10 paired CLD-HCC...
