Hepatitis B virus x (HBx) protein increases cellular OCT3/4 and MYC and facilitates cellular reprogramming
2023-08-11
Abstract excerpt
HBx is a multifunctional protein coded by the Hepatitis B virus which is involved in various cellular processes such as proliferation, cell survival/apoptosis, and histone methylation. HBx was reported to be associated with liver ‘cancer stem cells’. The stemness inducing properties of HBx could also facilitate the generation of pluripotent stem cells from somatic cells. It is well established that somatic cells c...
