IL6 and hepatocellular carcinoma: Constitutively hepatocyte-specific histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3)-deficient (HDAC3LCKO) mice and constitutively hepatocyte-specific HDAC3 knockout and systemic IL-6 simultaneously ablated (HDAC3LCKO& IL-6−/−) mice were used in our study to explore the causes of sex differences in HCC.
