Excerpt

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer worldwide and has a poor prognosis. HCC is described as a process with a complex molecular pathogenesis. There are three common mechanisms in the initiation of HCC: (i) liver injury, which is induced by etiologic factors such as chronic viral infections with hepatitis B and hepatitis C viruses, alcohol consumption, and obesity; (ii) fibrosis and cirrhosis, which are triggered after recurrent damage and regeneration cycles; and (iii) de-regulation of one or more oncogene and/or tumor suppressor gene [15]. …
