Background and Objectives: Activation of telomerase and stabilization of telomeres are considered necessary for immortalization of tumor cells. Telomerase activity was analyzed in 69 hepatocellular carcinomas and adjacent chronic liver disease tissues. The telomerase activity level was examined in r

Estrogen receptors (ER) were assayed on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and surrounding liver tissue in 30 adult patients. All specimens were obtained at the time of surgery. Cirrhosis of the liver was associated with 28 patients and chronic hepatitis in 2 patients. ERs were detected in 12 of 30 HCCs
Progesterone receptors (PgR), estrogen receptors (ER), and androgen receptors (AR) were assayed consecutively for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that was surgically removed from 19 men and three women. The methods of receptor assay were the enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for PgR and the dextran-coated cha
An assessment was made of the frequency of liver cell dysplasia and the mean age of each group in 56 normal, 13 cirrhotic, and 50 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, 40 with cirrhosis, from southern Africa. Dysplasia increased from 7.1% in normal subjects to 38.5% in cirrhotic, 40% in noncirrho
