Abstract Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection often results in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Previous studies have shown that there might be some characteristic mutations in the core region of HCV related to HCC. Thus, we downloaded and analyzed HCV genotype 1b core gene sequences from HCV databases online to identify them. Based on the information of the sequences, 63 from patients with HCC and 188 from non-HCC were enrolled into our analysis. Then, the nucleotides at each position were compared by chi(2)-test between the two groups, and 24 polymorphisms were found to be associated with HCC. Further analysis of these 24 polymorphisms by logistic regression indicated that eight were significantly related to the increased HCC risk: A028C, G209A, C219U/A, U264C, A271C/U, C378U/A, G435A/C, and G481A. Moreover, U303C/A was associated with the decreased HCC risk. These mutations could bring about four amino acid substitutions: K10Q, R70Q, M91L, and G161S. In conclusion, eight characteristic mutations in the HCV-1b core gene related to the occurrence of HCC were identified. The structural and functional alterations of core protein due to these mutations and the relationship with the occurrence of HCC need to be further studied.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
