Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common human tumors in Asia and Africa. The molecular genetic changes involving both protooncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are known to be involved in hepatocarcinogenesis, but the roles of the known tumor suppressor genes in hepatocarcinogenesis are not fully elucidated. In this study, the authors analyzed the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of known...
