Homeobox B9 promotes the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells via the EZH2–MIR203A–SNAI2 axis

Research has elucidated that homeobox B9 (HOXB9), an important transcriptional activator, plays a pivotal role in promoting the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. However, the mechanism by which HOXB9 promotes the invasion and metastasis of HCC cells is incompletely understood and needs further exploration.
