Mechanistic roles of microRNAs in hepatocarcinogenesis: A study of thioacetamide with multiple doses and time-points of rats
Abstract Environmental chemicals exposure is one of the primary factors for liver toxicity and hepatocarcinoma. Thioacetamide (TAA) is a well-known hepatotoxicant and could be a liver carcinogen in humans. The discovery of early and sensitive microRNA (miRNA) biomarkers in liver injury and tumor pro...
