Singapore, 3 May 2021 - A first of its kind cohort study on patients at high risk of developing primary liver cancer also known as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), has been launched to diagnose HCC more accurately at an earlier stage and to predict an individual s likelihood of developing the cancer. HCC is the sixth most common cancer in the world but the third most common cause of cancer deaths globally.[1] In Singapore, HCC is the third and fourth most common cause of cancer deaths, amongst males and females respectively.[2] While potentially curative treatment is possible with early diagnosis, only 20% of HCC cases are detected at a stage where cure is possible.

Study explores how environmental exposures before conception may impact fetal development


 E-Mail
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (March 16, 2021) Older age at the time of conception and alcohol consumption during pregnancy have long been known to impact fetal development.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests older age and alcohol consumption in the year leading up to conception also may have an impact by epigenetically altering a specific gene during development of human eggs, or oocytes.
Although the study did not determine the ultimate physical effects of this change, it provides important insights into the intricate relationship between environmental exposures, genetic regulation and human development.
While the outcome of the change isn t clear, our findings give us a valuable look into how environmental factors affect gene regulation through epigenetics and imprinting, said Peter A. Jones, Ph.D., D.Sc. (hon), Van Andel Institute chief scientific officer and the study s senior author. A better understanding of these complex processe ....
