Abstract excerpt
Liver cancer ranks sixth in cancer incidence and third in cancer-related deaths worldwide. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the primary histological subtype, and hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers have a higher risk of HCC. Although several susceptibility loci for HCC have been identified in East Asian populations through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the underlying biological mechanisms of this...
