RESUMEN

Objectives: To evaluate values of Cyclin D and Cdk4 in HCC, chronic hepatitis C, HCV related liver cirrhosis and healthy controls, their clinico-radiological correlations and prognosis of HCC


Methods: Group 1: Fifty patients with HCC, Group 2.Fifty patients with chronic hepatitis C with or without cirrhosis and Group 3: Thirty healthy controls were enrolled. All patients were positive for hepatitis C virus [HCV] antibody and confirmed by HCV RNA. Calculation of Barcelona-Clinic Liver Cancer [BCLC] staging system, MELD and Child-Pugh scores. mRNA for cyclin Dl and Cdk4 were analyzed by quantitative RT-PCR


Results: The mean Cyclin Dl and Cdk4 values were higher in HCC group compared with the other two groups [p value= 0.001]. In HCC group, the mean Cdk4 and cyclin Dlvalues were significantly higher among HCC patients with multiple hepatic focal lesion [HFL] [p value= 0. 0001, and003 respectively] compared with those with single lesion. A significant correlation between size of [HFL], alpha-Fetoprotein[AFP] and mean Cdk4 value [p value= 0.028, 0.0001 respectively]


Conclusions: Significant values of cyclin Dl and Cdk4 were found in HCC, compared to normal and chronic hepatitis C and correlated to the number, size of HFL and AFP level. Thus, the assessment of cyclin Dl and Cdk4 may provide a novel strategy for prognostication and targeted therapy of HCC
