We previously reported the usefulness of a qualified highly sensitive detection method for human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) mRNA in serum with 89.7% sensitivity for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we developed a quantitative detection method for serum hTERT mRNA and examined the clinical significance in HCC diagnosis. EXPERIMENTAL BACKGROUND: In 64 patients with HCC, 20 with liver cirrhosis, 20 with chronic hepatitis, and 50 healthy individuals, we measured serum hTERT mRNA by using the newly developed real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR with SYBR Green I. We examined its sensitivity and specificity in HCC diagnosis, clinical significance in comparison with other tumor markers, and its correlations with the clinical variables by using multivariate analyses.
