Abstract excerpt
Organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs) are crucial for hepatic uptake. However, the independent contribution of SLCO1B1/1B3 germline variations to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) susceptibility remains controversial. This study investigated SLCO1B1/1B3 polymorphisms and HCC risk in a Turkish cohort, accounting for clinical, viral, and metabolic confounders. In this retrospective case-control study (81 HCC...
