Telomere Length and Survival of Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the United States.
BACKGROUND:Telomere shortening is an important molecular event in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) initiation; however, its role in HCC progression and prognosis is less clear. Our study aimed to examine the association of telomere length with survival of patients with HCC. METHODS:We measured telomer...
