Moreover, pathway enrichment analysis using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database suggested the potential involvement of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, hepatocellular carcinoma, signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1 and ERK2 cascades. This evidence concerns the gene MAPK1 and hepatocellular carcinoma.
