Materials and methods: In this study, we extracted top gene candidates from the above-mentioned pan-analyses (i.e., B2M, C1qA, SUCLG1) and tested by qPCR their expression and their correlation with disease progression in 48 tissue samples covering liver disease stages (fatty liver, hepatitis, cirrhosis, HCC and CC) and normal tissues. Here, SUCLG1 is linked to cholangiocarcinoma.
