摘要:
A composition for detecting a marker for the diagnosis or prognosis of liver cancer is disclosed. The composition includes an agent capable of assessing the expression level of UQCRH (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase hinge protein). In addition, a kit having the composition, a microarray for the diagnosis of liver cancer using the marker, and a method for detecting the marker, and predicting recurrence following surgery in liver cancer patients are disclosed. The marker is able to contribute to the early diagnosis of liver cancer and prediction of recurrence following surgery and survival of liver cancer patients who have undergone hepatic resection, and also is significant for being a promising therapeutic target for liver cancer.
