SOX4 and hepatocellular carcinoma: We showed that Sox4 mRNA was induced in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK 293 T) infected with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), human hepatoma cells (Huh7.5.1) infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV), human lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549) infected with influenza A virus (IAV), and human rhabdomyosarcoma cells (RD) infected with enterovirus 71 (EV71) (Figure 1a–d).
