HBV HBx-Downregulated lncRNA <i>LINC01010</i> Attenuates Cell Proliferation by Interacting with Vimentin

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is closely related to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. To investigate the mechanism of HBV causing HCC, we previously analyzed the transcription of the HBV-transgenic cell line HepG2-4D14 and parental HepG2 cells and identified a subset of long noncoding...
