Title:
METHOD FOR ASSESSING RISK OF DEVELOPING HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA FROM NONALCOHOLIC STEATOHEPATITIS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/117772
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method for assessing the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma from nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). A method for detecting hepatocytes having a risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma or detecting tissue that contains said hepatocytes, wherein the method includes detecting the DNA methylation level of target CpG sites in genomic DNA derived from hepatocytes affected with NASH or from tissue that contains said hepatocytes, and detecting hepatocytes having the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma or tissue that contains said hepatocytes from the detected DNA methylation level.
