摘要:
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) for predicting prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma after curative surgical resection are provided. The SNPs have a significant correlation with an over-expression of MTA1 which is useful prognostic factor for prediction of prognosis or poor survival after curative surgical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, the SNPs can be used in developing micro-arrays or test kits for prediction of the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma, and in screening drugs to improve poor prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma after curative surgical resection.
