Article Synopsis
- The study aims to explore the link between certain DNA repair gene polymorphisms and the risk of developing hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver cancer (HCC).
- Researchers recruited 264 subjects divided into four groups: healthy controls, chronic hepatitis C patients, liver cirrhotic patients, and HCC patients, using various genetic testing methods.
- Findings indicate that the XRCC1 Arg194Trp genotype significantly increases the risk of developing chronic hepatitis C, liver cirrhosis, and HCC, suggesting it could be a risk factor in the Egyptian population.
