Aberrant DNA methylation is an important epigenetic alteration in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular processes underlying the methylator phenotype and the contribution of hepatitis viruses are poorly understood. The current study is a comprehensive methylation analysis of human l
## Abstract The expression of nine oncogenes (cβmyc, Nβmyc, Nβras, Hβras, kβras, abl, fos, src, and raf) and two tumor suppressor genes (p53 and RB) were studied by northern blot hybridization in six human hepatocellular carcinoma or hepatoblastoma cell lines (PLC/PRF/5, HepSB, Hep G2, 2.2.15, HLE,
Abnormalities of the tumor-suppressor p53 gene have been discovered in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It is unclear, however, whether HCC related to chronic viral hepatitis is associated with p53 gene alterations. In this study, we have examined p53 abnormalities in HCC associated with hepati
