Association of the pri-miR-34b/c rs4938723 T > C polymorphism with hepatoblastoma susceptibility in Eastern Chinese children: A five-center case-control study [PDF]
Background Hepatoblastoma is the most prevalent liver cancer affecting children, and its intricate causes are closely linked to genetic variations. This study interrogated the influence of the miR-34b/c rs4938723 T > C polymorphism in hepatoblastoma ...

From preneoplastic lesion to heterogenous tumor: recent insights into hepatoblastoma biology and therapeutic opportunities [PDF]
Hepatoblastoma is the most common pediatric liver cancer, with the fastest rising incidence among childhood malignancies. Early genomic studies revealed that hepatoblastoma has the lowest mutational burden of any human cancer, however, recent advances in

Recent updates on the classification of hepatoblastoma according to the international pediatric liver tumors consensus [PDF]
Hepatoblastoma is the most common pediatric liver malignancy and usually occurs within the first 3 years of life. In recent years, the overall incidence of hepatoblastoma has exhibited the greatest increase among all pediatric malignancies worldwide. The

The Genetic Changes of Hepatoblastoma
Hepatoblastoma is the most common malignant liver cancer in childhood. The etiology of hepatoblastoma remains obscure. Hepatoblastoma is closely related to genetic syndromes, hinting that hepatoblastoma is a genetic predisposition disease.

Epigenetics and genetics of hepatoblastoma: Linkage and treatment
Hepatoblastoma is a malignant embryonal tumor with multiple differentiation modes and is the clearest liver malignancy in children. However, little is known about genetic and epigenetic events in Hepatoblastoma.

A population-based assessment of metastatic hepatoblastoma in Texas reveals ethnic disparities
BackgroundHepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common primary liver cancer in children with emerging evidence that incidence is increasing globally. While overall survival for low risk hepatoblastoma is >90%, children with metastatic disease have worse ...

Adult hepatoblastoma (AHB) is a very rare tumor, having been described 45 cases up to June 2012. In contrast to HB in infancy (IHB), it has poor prognosis. We present the case of a 37-year-old asymptomatic woman who consulted for a large -12 cm diameter- mass involving segments 5 and 6 of the liver, and alfa-fetoprotein of 1,556,30 UI/mL.

Genome-wide analysis of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) expression in hepatoblastoma tissues. [PDF]
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have crucial roles in cancer biology. We performed a genome-wide analysis of lncRNA expression in hepatoblastoma tissues to identify novel targets for further study of hepatoblastoma.
