It seems that γ-H2A.X could act in promoting HCC angiogenesis via modulation of γ-H2A.X/EGFR/HIF1α/VEGF signalling [198], suggesting a possible combination of γ-H2A.X/EGFR/HIF-1α as a novel marker in the prognosis of HCC and as potential therapeutic target. Here, VEGFA is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
