Journal ArticleDOI

Aberrant expression of microRNA 155 may accelerate cell proliferation by targeting sex-determining region Y box 6 in hepatocellular carcinoma†

TL;DR: The authors investigated the tumorigenic mechanism of this oncomir in the development of HCC and suggested that it is up‐regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Re-evaluation of the Carcinogenic Significance of Hepatitis B Virus Integration in Hepatocarcinogenesis

TL;DR: The frequency and patterns ofHBV insertions were similar between tumor and their adjacent non-tumor samples indicating that the majority of HBV DNA integration events are not associated with hepatocarcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methylation‐mediated repression of microRNA 129‐2 enhances oncogenic SOX4 expression in HCC

TL;DR: The involvement of miR‐129‐2 in HBV infection‐related HCC is investigated and it is found that this molecule is involved in hepatocarcinogenesis through pathways related to EMT and ‘cell reprograming’.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive profiling of novel microRNA-9 targets and a tumor suppressor role of microRNA-9 via targeting IGF2BP1 in hepatocellular carcinoma

TL;DR: This study suggests that miR-9 functions as a tumor suppressor in HCC progression by inhibiting a series of target genes, including the newly validated miR -9/IGF2BP1/AKT&ERK axis, thus providing potential therapeutic targets and novel prognostic biomarkers for HCC patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative methylation analysis reveals gender and age differences in p16INK4a hypermethylation in hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma

TL;DR: Frequent promoter hypermethylation of the inhibitors in either Rb or p53 pathways is associated with the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development.
