“…In addition to commonly recognized risk factors for HCC development, such as hepatitis B virus/hepatitis C virus infection, age and alcohol/tobacco consumption, there are nutritional risk factors also related to HCC development including high intake of saturated fats derived from red meat, type of cooking (generation of heterocyclic amines) and contamination of foods with aflatoxins. …”

“…The risk factors for PTDM most frequently identified in the primary studies were age, body mass index, hepatitis C, and African American descent. CONCLUSION: Tacrolimus tends to exhibit higher diabetogenicity in the short-term (2-3 years post-transplant), whereas sirolimus exhibits higher diabetogenicity in the long-term (5-10 years post-transplant). …”

Given the roles of the IRES in cap-independent translation for picornaviruses, we sought to functionally characterize the IRES of this genus by studying chimeric viruses generated by exchanging the native SVA IRES with that of HCV either entirely or individual domains. …”
