Impact of miR-23b and miR-331 Gene Expressions on HCV-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Egyptian Patients
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major type of liver tumor. It represents up to 90% all malignancies. There are currently no reliable tumor markers or imaging technologies that can accurately diagnose early HCC. The use circulating micro-RNAs (miRNAs miR) as potential tool for detection HCC has become an emerging area study. Objectives: This study aimed evaluate the role miR-23b and miR-331 biomarkers in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients.

Clinical and biological significance of miR-23b and miR-193a in human hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common cancer of the liver with a very poor prognosis. The dysregulation of microRNAs (miRs) is indeed implicated in HCC onset and progression. In this study, we have evaluated the expression of miR-23b and miR-193a in a large cohort of 59 and 67 HCC patients, respectively. miR-23b and miR-193a resulted significantly down-regulated in primary HCCs comp...

HCV induced hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma as its sequel are major health problems world-wide and especially in Egypt. For diagnosis and during treatment of liver diseases, liver functions are monitored through determination of serum levels of liver enzymes and α-fetoprotein although the obtained information is generally not sufficient for either early detection of hepatic insult or eff...
متن کاملmiR-22 promotes HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma development in males.
PURPOSE Previous reports have shown that IL-1α-MyD88-IL-6 signaling is essential in promoting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development in a diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced mouse model. We aimed to determine whether interleukin (IL)-1α regulates HCC development in humans. METHODS HBV-associated HCC tissue, corresponding adjacent tissue, and normal tissue samples were obtained from 80 male a...
متن کاملImpact of Genetic Variants in Mir-122 Gene and its Flanking Regions on Hepatitis B Risk
MicroRNAs are small non coding RNAs that are involved in gene expression regulation. Mir-122 was reported to inhibit hepatitis B virus (HBV), but little is known about the role of mir-122 polymorphisms on HBV infection development. This present study aimed to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in mir-122 gene region with HBV infection. Study cases were HB...

BACKGROUND Recently, increasing research evidence indicates that miRNA plays important roles in oncogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of plasma miRNAs as biomarkers for HCC determination. MATERIAL AND METHODS This trial included 4 phases: (i) miRNAs in tumor tissues were screened with a miRNA array for determining candidate...
