Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The hepatocyte Notch pathway is a pathogenic factor in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)-associated fibrosis, but its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is less well defined. Herein, we aimed to characterize the molecular and clinical features of Notch-active human HCC, and to investigate the mechanisms by which Notch affects NASH-driven HCC. METHODS: Using a 14-gene Notch score, we...
