The present invention relates to a composition used in marker detection for liver-cancer diagnosis or prognosis prediction comprising a preparation for measuring the level of expression of UQCRH (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase hinge protein), to a kit comprising the composition, to a microarray for diagnosing liver cancer using the marker, to a method for detecting the marker, and to the prediction of recurrence following surgery in liver-cancer patients. According to the present invention, the marker has been judged to be able to greatly contribute to predicting the recurrence and the prognosis for survival following surgery in individuals who have had an early diagnosis and liver resection surgery for liver cancer, and provides significance to treatment targets for subsequent liver-cancer treatment. |
