Research Article: A Novel Gene Pair CSTF/DPEA Impacts Prognosis and Cell Cycle of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Abstract:
Primary liver cancer possesses the sixth highest tumor incidence rate as well as ranks third in terms of cancer-related causes of death all over the world. Whereas hepatocellular carcinoma is the predominant pathologic category, consisting of about % of total cases. HCC cases tend to occur in underdeveloped areas such as Southeast Asia (comprising .% of cases) and East Asia (comprising .% of cases). It is also reported that in western countries more than a million people are dying yearly on account of HCC. Proverbially, as a sophisticated procedure, the development of HCC is related to various risk factors. In developing regions, chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) and aflatoxin B (AFB) play the foremost role in the development of HCC., While hepatitis C virus (HCV) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) contribute to HCC most in developed regions. Radiofrequency or microwave ablation, liver transplantation, and liver resection remain the first-line treatments of HCC. However, the poor prognosis of HCC has sparked our motivation to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms of HCC and discover innovative diagnostic predictors to discriminate HCC patients at disparate risk for precise therapeutic strategies.
