Background: Major histocompatibility complex class I-related chain A (MICA) is considered
as a tumor antigen, and its expression is affected by its genetic polymorphisms. However …

MHC class I chain-related gene A (MICA) variants have been associated with hepatocellular
carcinoma (HCC). Their association with MICA expression in cancer cells and cancer …

Background & aims Various studies have investigated the relationship between the
polymorphism, rs2596542, in the promoter of the major histocompatibility complex class I …

Background We explored the relationship of interferon--γ (IFN-γ) and MHC class-I chain
related gene A (MICA) genes polymorphisms with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk, and …

In this study we investigated the impact of rs2596542A/G single nucleotide polymorphism
(SNP) in the major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related sequence A (MICA) gene …

MHC class I polypeptide-related chain A (MICA), mapping to 6p21. 33, belongs to the non-

Objective: To explore the relationship between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection,
polymorphisms of MHC class I chain-related gene A (MICA) and Toll-like receptor 10 …

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection still remains to be one of the dominant risk factor for
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Both genetic as well as environmental factors influence the …
