Featured review: Relationship between epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and the inflammatory microenvironment of hepatocellular carcinoma

Featured Review: Relationship between EMT and the inflammatory microenvironment of HCC Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer. These inflammatory-related tumors are difficult to treat due to early invasion and metastasis, of which epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key step. In HCC, the inflammatory microenvironment is undoubtedly the decisive factor in tumor development, but the association between this and the occurrence of EMT is not yet clear. In this review, Long Yan et al. review the relationship between EMT and HCC's inflammatory tumor microenvironment, and elaborate on its significance.
