Constitutive Androstane Receptor and Hepatitis B Virus X Protein Cooperatively Induce β-catenin-Activated Liver Tumors
2020-08-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background and Aims</h4> The xenobiotic nuclear receptor Constitutive Androstane Receptor (CAR) is essential for xenobiotic tumor promotion in mouse models. In these models, β-catenin is genetically activated in approximately 80% of tumors. Chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and β-catenin activation is also frequently activated in HBV-associate...
