The natural killer group 2D (NKG2D) receptor and its ligands play important roles in immune surveillance. In this study, we observed that the average serum soluble MICA (sMICA) concentration of 174 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients was significantly higher than that in 80 healthy subjects (602.17 +/- 338.15 vs. 72.26 +/- 87.88 pg/ml, t = 3.107, P.002). The levels of serum sMICA in 44 HCC patients with initial levels above 400 pWml declined significantly after surgical removal of the fiver cancer tissue (P
