STUDY OF DES-GAMMA-CARBOXYPROTHROMBIN (DCP) LEVELS IN CHRONIC HEPATITIS C WITH OR WITHOUT HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA (HCC) IN EGYPTIAN PATIENTS [PDF]

Al-Azhar Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2015
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is usually asymptomatic in the early stage and does not show elevated alpha-feto protein (AFP). Des-Gamma-CarboxyProthrombin (DCP) and Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) may increase in sera of HCC patients.

Utility of serum des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma among Nigerians, a case-control study. [PDF]

BMC Gastroenterol, 2015
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy occurring globally but with a dismal prognosis. Des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin (DCP) has been reported to be more sensitive and specific than Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in the diagnosis of HCC among the White population. Its efficacy among the Black population is yet to be established.

The Impact of TP53-Induced Glycolysis and Apoptosis Regulator on Prognosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Association with Tumor Microenvironment and Ferroptosis [PDF]

Liver Cancer
Introduction: TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) is a p53 target protein that has critical roles in glycolysis and redox balance. The reports about the effect of TIGAR on prognosis and its biological role in hepatocellular carcinoma (

ASSESSMENT OF THE VALUE OF MEAN PLATELET VOLUME, DES GAMMA CARBOXY PROTHROMBIN AND ALPHA FETO PROTEIN IN EARLY DETECTION OF HCC [PDF]

Ain Shams Medical Journal, 2022
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the commonest primary hepatic neoplasm. The gold standard HCC biomarker is alfa-feto protein (AFP), also mean platelet volume (MPV) is increased in many inflammatory disorders and numerous neoplasms.

Combining des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin and alpha-fetoprotein for hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosing: an update meta-analysis and validation study. [PDF]

Oncotarget, 2017
Controversies about the combination of des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin (DCP) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) for hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosing still exist. Hence, we performed this updated meta-analysis to estimate the diagnostic value of DCP , AFP and DCP + AFP in HCC.

MicroRNA-26a systemic administration attenuates tumor formation in hepatocellular carcinoma mouse model

Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021
MicroRNA (miRNA)-26a is one of the tumor suppressor genes that has been down regulated during the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This work was conducted to evaluate the possible preventive effect of exogenous miRNA-26a administration on ...
