Expression of miR-221 and miR-18a in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and its clinical significance.

Published in: Korean journal of clinical oncology (2022)

High expression of miR-221 in FFPE tissues could provide significance for prognosis of HCC patients. Although, miR-18a expression was significantly upregulated in HCC tissues, they are not correlated with prognosis. Further large prospective studies are needed to determine their clinical significance.
