Table 1.

Alterations of total RNA (mean±SD) and amplification of IGF-II mRNA in cancerous, para-cancerous, and non-cancerous liver tissues

Groups	n	Total RNA level (μg/mg wet tissue)	IGF-II mRNA
Groups	n	Total RNA level (μg/mg wet tissue)	Positive	%
Cancerous tissues	30	13.4 ± 8.4	30	100
Para-cancerous tissues	30	20.7 ± 14.6^a	16	53.3^b
Non-cancerous tissues	30	25.0 ± 20.2^b	0	0^b

P<0.05,

P<0.01 vs the cancerous tissue group.
