Hepatitis C virus-induced hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a leading etiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The interaction of HCV with its human host is complex and multilayered; stemming in part from the fact that HCV is a RNA virus with no ability to integrate in the host's genome. Direct and indirect mechanisms of HCV-induced HCC include activation of multiple host pathways such as liver fibrogenic pathways, cellular...
متن کاملHepatitis C Virus and Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma in woodchuck were characterized for woodchuck hepatitis virus integration nea c-myc oncogene. In one tumor, viral integration resulted in overexpression of a c-myc viral cotranscript. In a second tumor, viral insertion, 600 bp upstream of c-myc exon 1, was associated with increased levels of normal c-myc mRNA. These results demonstrate that integration of woodchuck hepa...
متن کاملPromotion of hepatocellular carcinoma by hepatitis C virus.
Persistent infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major global health problem. Around 2-3% of the world's population are chronically infected, and infected individuals are at high risk of developing steatosis, fibrosis, and liver cirrhosis. The latter is a major predisposing factor for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It is generally accepted that an inflammatory resp...
متن کاملHepatitis C virus replication in hepatocellular carcinoma.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication is reported in both tumour and non-tumour tissue in a case of hepatocellular carcinoma. Viral replication was established by showing the presence of minus strand HCV RNA by PCR amplification, after excluding residual reverse transcriptase activity of Taq polymerase. No minus strand was found in serum derived virion RNA. PCR amplified products from both tumour...
متن کاملMolecular basis of hepatocellular carcinoma induced by hepatitis C virus infection
Present study outlines a comprehensive view of published information about the underlying mechanisms operational for progression of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection to development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These reports are based on the results of animal experiments and human based studies. Although, the exact delineated mechanism is not yet established, there are evidences av...
متن کاملMolecular Pathogenesis of Hepatitis-B-virus-associated Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most frequent and malignant diseases worldwide. Epidemiological studies have clearly demonstrated that chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major etiological factor in the development of HCC. The pathogenesis of HBV-associated HCC has been studied extensively, and the molecular changes associated with malignant transformation have been iden...
