In the original publication by Fang et al., fewer cases with reduced E-cadherin expression were found in the VETC-positive HCC compared to the VETC-negative HCC, while N-cadherin was not investigated [76]; however, given the minimal differences, the link between the VETC pattern and E-cadherin expression may be explained by the significantly higher statistical power in our larger cohort—Fang’s group did not only analyze E-cadherin, but also other factors of EMT, such as Snail, Slug, and Twist, which may validate the notion that there is no relationship between VETC and EMT. The gene discussed is CDH1; the disease is hepatocellular carcinoma.
