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
## Abstract ## Background and Objectives It is important to identify prognostic factors in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) before hepatectomy. No previous studies have addressed the predictive efficacy of the preoperative doubling times of alphaβfetoprotein (AFP) and protein induced b
Tumor recurrence after resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can occur early (<2 years) or late (>2 years) as metastases or de novo tumors. Interferon (IFN) has the potential for chemoprevention against hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related cirrhosis. A predetermined group of 150 HCV RNA-positive pa
