The iso-enzyme pattern of cytochrome P450 was shown to be related to the development of chemically induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in rats, which is accelerated by chronic alcohol ingestion. Our study was designed to investigate the association of cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) genetic polymorp

## Abstract Thirtyβfour patients from the Philadelphia area with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were matched with colon cancer patients, lung cancer patients and blood donors according to age and sex. Sera from the four groups were tested to determine the prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen (
## BACKGROUND. Several lines of evidence indicate that there is a close association between hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the role of the virus itself in the development of the disease is not yet well understood. ## METHODS. In liver samples from
We studied the frequency of hepatitis B virus replication in Chinese patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatitis B e antigen and hepatitis B virus DNA could be detected in the sera of 28% and 47% of 116 HBeAg-positive patients, but not in the sera of 15 HBsAg-negative patients. Replicative for
