Epigenetic repression of E-cadherin expression by Hepatitis B virus x Antigen (HBx) in liver cancer

Loss of E-cadherin is associated with acquisition of metastatic capacity. Numerous studies suggest histone deacetylation and/or hypermethylation of CpG islands in E-cadherin gene (CDH1) are major mechanisms responsible for E-cadherin silencing in different tumors and cancer cell lines.
