A group of researchers used microarray analysis to compare genes and microRNAs in liver tissues of HBV-positive and HBV-negative HCC patients and found that microRNA-30B-5P significantly down-regulated MINPP1 expression in hepatocytes of HBV-positive HCC patients and promoted the glycolytic bypass pathway, significantly enhancing the proliferation and migration of tumor cells [79]. Here, MINPP1 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
