Uncovering the molecular drivers of liver cancer

Researchers discover that inflammation and aging contribute to non-viral liver cancer development: Green tea's role in reversing some of the pathway dysregulation that may contribute to the cancer development and other therapies are explored.

Decoding the Molecular Mechanisms Behind Liver Cancer

Liver cancer, specifically hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), represents a formidable challenge in modern oncology, frequently emerging on the backdrop of chronic liver disease (CLD). While viral infections have been historically recognized as significant contributors to liver carcinogenesis, non-viral factors are increasingly implicated in the rising incidence of HCC. Roughly 15 to 25 percent of HCC cases are linked with non-viral chronic liver co…
