Restoration of miR-193b sensitizes Hepatitis B virus-associated hepatocellular carcinoma to sorafenib

Highlights • HBV infection in HCC cell lines enhances sorafenib resistance. • HBV infection in HCC reduces miR-193b expression and increases Mcl-1 expression. • MiR-193b directly suppresses the expression of Mcl-1 through its 3′-UTRs. • MiR-193b facilitates sorafenib-induced apoptosis. • MiR-193b se...
