title: Decoding hepatocellular carcinoma: the promise of microRNAs.
abstract: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) may play an important role in the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Understanding the mechanism of specific miRNAs may provide opportunity for development of biomarkers and novel therapeutics in hepatocellular carcinoma which are desperately needed.
