UBE2C expression is elevated in hepatoblastoma and correlates with inferior patient survival
To gain insight into the pathobiology of hepatoblastoma (HB), RNA sequence analysis and protein-protein interaction analysis of previously established and sequenced HB samples were conducted. Ubiquitination was identified as a key pathway dysregulated in HB and UBE2C, encoding an E2 ubiquitin ligase often overexpressed in cancer cells, was markedly upregulated in 5 of the 6 HB cell lines. The silencing of UBE2C in HUH6 HB cell model resulted in decreased cell viability and migration. RNA sequencing analysis showed alterations in cell cycle regulation after UBE2C knockdown. Overall design: RNA-seq data analysis of HUH6 cells after UBE2C knockdown.
