FOXA1 inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma progression by suppressing PIK3R1 expression in male patients

Forkhead box A1 (FOXA1) expression is associated with various types of tumors; however, the function and underlying mechanism of FOXA1 in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains obscure. Here, we investigated the role of FOXA1 in the development of HCC by applying gene function gain and loss analysis to HepG2 and Hep3B cell lines, and comparing outcomes with those of clinical HCC samples. Phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory...
