Recent reports confirmed that, HBX induces miR-3928v through NF-κB/EGR1 signalling pathway and accelerated hepatocellular carcinoma by decreasing the expression of suppressor gene VDAC3 using calorimetry, colony formation, migration/invasion, vascular mimicry assays in vitro and xenograft tumour model in vivo using hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines [48]. The gene discussed is VDAC3; the disease is neoplasm.
