| Core Tip |
To understand the role of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development, we re-analyzed HBV integration sites using publicly available data. We found that chromosome 11q13.3 is a frequently observed HBV integration site. This region contains important cancer driver genes, such as CCND1 and FGF19, which are amplified in HCC. This finding supports a mechanism of carcinogenesis promoted by HBV-induced genomic instability in the liver and provides insights into treating a subset of liver cancers. |
