Association between hepatitis B virus core promoter rearrangements and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications - 27 Mar 1998

Laskus T, Radkowski M, Nowicki M, Wang L F, Vargas H, Rakela J

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the major etiological agent of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Whether any particular viral variants are associated with HCC is unknown. We studied 53 Gambian patients with HCC and 33 HBsAg positive controls. A functional part of HBV core promoter and whole precore region were sequenced directly and/or after cloning. HBV DNA was amplified from sera from 27 HCC patients and in all...
