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 ## BACKGROUND Inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene __PTEN__/__MMAC1__/__TEP1__, located on chromosome 10q23, is a common event in advanced stages of diverse human malignancies. However, the prognostic role of __PTEN__ expression in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. The secreted frizzledβrelated protein 1 gene (__SFRP1__) encodes a Wnt/Ξ²βcatenin signaling antagonist and frequently is inactivated by promoter methylation in many tumors. However, the role of __SFRP1__ in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not clear. Therefore, the autho
