Comprehensive analysis of CXCL10 and MIP-3a reveals their potential clinical application in hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Chemokines play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The expression levels of interferon-γ-induced protein-10 (CXCL10) and macrophage inflammatory protein-3α (MIP-3a) were investigated to clarify their clinical significance in HCC. The protein levels of CXCL10 and MIP-3a in the serum of 105 HBV-associated HCC patients, 50 patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), 50 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and 50 healthy donors (HC) were detected by liquid chip technology (Luminex) or ELISA. In addition, their mRNA levels were also determined in liver cancer and adjacent cancer tissue (paracancer; ParaCa) from 65 HCC patients. The online database UALCAN was used to analyze the association between CXCL10 and pathological manifestations of liver cancer
