Abstract
In 15 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, the serum squalene level is raised significantly in parallel with the serum cholesterol level, though significantly decreased in patients with cholestatic hepatobiliary disease. Serum levels of cholesterol and/or squalene, therefore, could be regarded as a laboratory index reflecting a peculiar sterol metabolism in hepatocellular carcinoma.Entities:
