Levels of Cytokines in Serum Associate With Development of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients With HCV Infection Treated With Direct-Acting Antivirals.

abstract：BACKGROUND & AIMS:Numerous studies have linked the proliferation of liver progenitor cells (LPCs) during chronic liver disease to the risk for development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, selective inhibition of LPC growth during preneoplastic injury may prevent or delay the onset of liver cancer. Rats carrying a ger...
