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

## Abstract The hepatitis B virus (HBV) status of six unselected South African Black children, aged 10 to 16 years, with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was investigated. The characteristics of the tumor were similar to those seen in Black adults. Hepatitis B surface antigen and antibody to the core
The states of hepatitis B virus DNA, RNA transcripts and antigens (HBsAg and HBcAg) were studied in the liver with hepatocellular carcinoma by blot hybridization and immunohistological methods. We used whole hepatitis B virus DNA and gene specific probes (S, C and X genes) for hybridization. Integra
## Abstract Gene inactivation through DNA hypermethylation plays a pivotal role in carcinogenesis. This study aimed to profile aberrant DNA methylation in different stages of liver disease, namely noncirrhosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and also to clarify the influence of hepat
