Abstract excerpt
Hepatocarcinogenesis is associated with various factors, including oxidative stress. Alterations in selenoprotein genes could impair redox balance and influence cancer development. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the association of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) from selenoproteins with hepatocellular carcinoma risk. The case and healthy groups were genotyped using quantitative polymerase chain reaction...
