## BACKGROUND. Telomeres, at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are defined functionally as necessary for chromosome stability. Chromosome instability induced in part by loss of telomeric DNA has been considered to play a significant role in the development of human cancers. However, little is kn

## Background: The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) and the seroprevalence of hepatitis b virus (hbv) in this disease state are significantly higher in south india than in north india. because data on serologic studies do not project the actual association between the two parameters, thi
We aimed to investigate the incidence of occult hepatitis B infection (OBI) in patients with ''cryptogenic'' hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to study the HBV replicative activity in these patients. Tumorous and adjacent nontumorous liver tissues were obtained from 33 cryptogenic HCC patients and
## Abstract Identification of risk factors for recurrence and metastasis of HCC is important for the prognosis of HCC surveillance in chronic HBV infection. In this article, 125 HCC patients recruited were followed up prospectively for tumor metastasis and recurrence for a median of 104 (10–130) we
Hepatocellular carcinoma tissues from HBsAg-negative patients with chronic alcoholic liver disease were investigated for the presence of hepatitis B virus DNA. Southern blot analyses of DNA extracted from the hepatocellular carcinomas were negative for hepatitis B virus DNA in all 17 patients examin
