[To explore the possibility that the genetic alteration of caspase-8 gene is involved in the development of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs), we have analysed the entire coding region of human caspase-8 gene for the detection of somatic mutations by polymerase chain reaction-single-strand conformation polymorphism in 69 HCCs with low-grade dysplastic nodule (LGDN, n=2) or high-grade dysplastic nodule (HGDN, n=2) or without any dysplastic nodules (n=65).].
