Liver cancer is related to genetic factors

If someone around you has liver cancer, then those around him will also worry, especially those who are blood relatives. Is liver cancer related to genetic factors? Can people living together also get liver cancer? Experts have conducted research on this issue to dispel everyone's doubts, and I believe it will be helpful to everyone.

1. Someone investigated the family members of liver cancer patients and found that there was a phenomenon of family accumulation. A total of four groups of people were investigated. The first group was all blood-related and often lived together; the second group was not blood-related but also lived together; the third group was blood-related but not living together; the fourth group was neither blood-related nor living together.

2. According to the survey, environmental factors are more important than blood relationship in the incidence of liver cancer, but the incidence of the blood relationship group is higher than that of the non-blood relationship group. Is liver cancer hereditary? Experiments have proved that genetic factors also play a role in the incidence of liver cancer.

3. According to the epidemiological survey of immigrants, people who move to other countries or regions still maintain the same incidence rate as in their own country or region. In addition, patients with certain genetic diseases such as antitrypsin deficiency and hemochromatosis have a higher risk of liver cancer, but the incidence rate of these genetic diseases is relatively low. Therefore, liver cancer is somewhat related to genetic factors, but this is not the main reason.

Liver cancer is a disease with a relatively high incidence rate nowadays, and many people worry that the disease will be inherited. The above introduces whether liver cancer is inherited. In fact, liver cancer has genetic factors, but people who live together are more likely to develop liver cancer, so everyone must remember to pay attention to their personal lives when living together.
