lncRNA PVT1 promotes hepatitis B virus ‑positive liver cancer progression by disturbing histone methylation on the c‑Myc promoter.

In conclusion, our results indicate that lncRNA PVT1 promotes hepatitis B virus‑positive liver cancer progression by disturbing histone methylation on the MYC promoter, suggesting that lncRNA PVT1 may be a potential target for developing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of hepatitis B virus‑positive liver cancer at the early stages.
