Genome-wide association study of TP53 R249S mutation in hepatocellular carcinoma with aflatoxin B1 exposure and hepatitis B virus infection in Guangxi
2020-08-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background/Aims</h4> Dietary aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) exposure, which induces DNA damage and codon 249 mutation of the TP53 gene, is one of the major risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and AFB1 exert synergistic effects to promote carcinogenesis and TP53 R249S mutation in HCC. <h4>Methods</h4> A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted on 485 cases of HCC...
