Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most malignant solid tumors causing over 650,000 global deaths each year. Attributed to complex mechanisms, the tumorigenesis of HCC is associated with a broad range of risk factors, including HBV/
HCV infection, heavy alcohol consumption, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
