Abstract
The present guideline updates the Turkish recommendations for the screening, diagnosis and management of Hepatitis
C virus (HCV) infection prepared by the Turkish Association for the Study of the Liver (TASL) and Viral Hepatitis
Society (VHS). The aim of this guidance was to provide updates recommendations to physicians, who are interested
in HCV care on the optimal screening, diagnosis and pre-treatment management for patients with HCV infection
in Turkey. These recommendations, produced by panel experts, were aimed to addresses the management issues
ranging from diagnosis and linkage to care, to the optimal treatment regimen in patients with HCV infection. Recommendations
are based on evidence and opinions of more than 70% of the panelists. This guidance is supported by
the memberships of two societies and not by pharmaceutical companies. This guidance will be updated frequently
as new data become available.

Abstract
Objective We aimed to investigate the relationship of expression of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in colon cancer and its predecessor colon polyp. Materials and methods This study included 29 patients with colon polyp, 19 patients with colon cancer and 65 healthy control subjects. The expressions of MMP-7, TIMP-1 and COX-2 were investigated by real time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results The expressions of TIMP-1, COX-2 and MMP-7 levels were significantly higher in polyp tissue compared to normal tissue (p = 0.024, p < 0.001, p = 0.009, respectively). Expression of TIMP-1, COX-2 and MMP-7 in cancer tissues were higher than both normal tissue and polyp tissue (p = 0.009 and p = 0.001; p < 0.001 and p < 0.001; p = 0.029 and p = 0.008, respectively). In the cancer group, no significant relationship was detected between metastasis and MMP-7, TIMP-1 and COX-2 expressions (p > 0.05). In the polyp tissues, no significant relationship was detected between the histologic type and size of polyps and MMP-7, TIMP-1 and COX-2 levels (p > 0.05). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the cancer group were 0.821 for TIMP-1, 0.888 for COX-2, and 0.880 for MMP-7 (p = 0 < 0.001). Conclusion A role and implication of expressions of MMP-7, COX-2 and TIMP-1 in colon cancer is predicted. How to cite this article Bengi G, Keles D, Topalak Ö, Yalçin M, Kiyak R, Oktay G.
