Core Tip

Core tip: Compared to traditional biomarkers, high throughput technologies provide novel insights and mechanistic understanding of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this article, recent genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomics, and metagenomics based HCC diagnostic biomarkers and their performance was evaluated. The advantages and disadvantages of these HCC diagnostic biomarkers are also discussed.
