Because telomerase activity is necessary for cell immortality and probably associated with tumor progression, we have evaluated a possible aid for quantitation of the activity to predict intrahepatic recurrences after surgery in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC tissues obtained by s
Precise diagnosis of well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is sometimes difficult to establish. Telomerase activity was examined by telomeric-repeat-amplification protocol (TRAP) in 37 HCC nodules smaller than 3 cm in diameter, including 24 fine-needle-aspiration biopsy specimens, 22 no
## BACKGROUND. Recurrence of small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is common. Recent studies have suggested that the status of the underlying liver parenchyma is a significant risk factor for recurrence of HCC. ## METHODS. The postoperative values of transaminase were examined every 6 months aft
## Background: Telomerase activation is thought to be essential for the immortality of cancer cells. we measured telomerase activity in human liver samples, including hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc), and evaluated this assay as a tool for the diagnosis of hcc using 21-gauge (21-g)-needle biopsy spec
## BACKGROUND. The hepatitis activity index (HAI) score describes the histologic status of accompanying chronic hepatitis and was established by pathologists. The aim of this study was twofold: 1) to investigate the correlation between intrahepatic metastatic recurrence (IM) and the HAI score of t
