Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was found that the onset of liver cancer was promoted as a result of increased production of active oxygen and activation of the JNK pathway in the presence of the HBx C1485T mutation. In addition, elucidation of the tumor microimmune environment induced in the presence of the HBxC1485T mutation proved that the cell numbers of TAMs and MDSCs were suppressed, which is one of the factors of the antitumor effect.
