Core Tip This commentary extends the findings from a recent article by proposing two concrete translational applications for microRNA-206 in the management of hepatocellular carcinoma: (1) As a preoperative biomarker to stratify recurrence risk before ablation; and (2) As a therapeutic agent administered locally by a nanocarrier during or after radiofrequency ablation to prevent recurrence. The potential duality of microRNA-206 could transform the standard of care for patients with high-risk hepatocellular carcinoma.
