While there was no obvious difference in IGF2BP1 RNA expression in the TCGA HCC samples with and without detected HCV infection (Figure S3A), a positive correlation between IGF2BP1 RNA expression and the RNA levels of HCV can be seen in publicly available RNA-seq samples of HCV-infected Huh7.5.1 cells (Figure 2B, the data for which were obtained from [90]). Here, IGF2BP1 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
