PLXNB2 and hepatocellular carcinoma: Recurrent HBV integration events were detected in ICC including TERT, ZMAT4, MET, ANKFN1, PLXNB2, and in CHC like TERT, ALKBH5. Together with our established data of HBV-infected hepatocellular carcinoma, we found that HBV preferentially integrates into the specific regions which may affect the gene expression and regulation in cells and involved in carcinogenesis.
