| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Mutations in the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome may influence the activity of liver disease. The aim of this study was to identify new viral variations associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: We carried out a comparison study on the complete sequence of HBV isolated from 20 HCC and 35 non-HCC patients in Qidong, China, an area with a high incidence of HCC. We compared the HBV sequences in a consecutive series of plasma samples from four HCC cases before and after the occurrence of HCC. In addition, we selected four mutations in the HBV core (C) gene to verify their relationships to HCC in an independent set of 103 HCC cases and 103 sex- and age-matched non-HCC controls. RESULTS: The pre-S deletion and 12 point mutations, namely, the pre-S2 start codon mutation, T53C in the pre-S2 gene, T766A in the S gene, G1613A, C1653T, A1762T, G1764A in the X gene, and G1899A, C2002T, A2159G, A2189C, and G2203W (A or T) in the pre-C/C gene, showed close associations with HCC. In the validation study, A2159G, A2189C, and G2203W showed consistent associations with HCC by univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that A2189C and G2203W were independent risk factors for HCC. The odds ratios (95% confidence interval) were 3.99 (1.61-9.92) and 9.70 (1.17-80.58), respectively, for A2189C and G2203W. CONCLUSIONS: These results implicate A2189C and G2203W as new predictive markers for HCC. IMPACT: The complete genome analysis of HBV provided pilot data for the identification of novel mutations that could serve as markers for HCC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
