Fibrosis-associated hepatocarcinogenesis revisited: Establishing standard medium-term chemically-induced male and female models.
Hepatocellular carcinoma causes ~10% of all cancer-related deaths worldwide, usually emerging in a background of liver fibrosis/cirrhosis (70%-90% of cases). Chemically-induced mouse models for fibrosis-associated hepatocarcinogenesis are widely-applied, resembling the corresponding human disease. N...
