LOC100506634 Gene

hepatocellular carcinoma-associated antigen HCA25a

HEIH Gene

hepatocellular carcinoma up-regulated EZH2-associated long non-coding RNA

Biomarker of esophagus squamous cell carcinoma. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

HVBS7 Gene

hepatitis B virus integration site 7

HVBS8 Gene

hepatitis B virus integration site 8

HAVCR1 Gene

hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1

The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane receptor for both human hepatitis A virus (HHAV) and TIMD4. The encoded protein may be involved in the moderation of asthma and allergic diseases. The reference genome represents an allele that retains a MTTVP amino acid segment that confers protection against atopy in HHAV seropositive individuals. The protein is a receptor for multiple other viruses, including Ebola virus, Marburg virus, Dengue virus, and Zika virus and is a possible entry factor for SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses.

LOC100128356 Gene

protein transactivated by hepatitis B virus E antigen

HAVCR1P2 Gene

hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 pseudogene 2

HEPN1 Gene

hepatocellular carcinoma, down-regulated 1

This gene is expressed predominantly in the liver. Transient transfection studies show the expression of this gene significantly inhibits cell growth, suggesting a role for this gene in apoptosis. Expression of this gene is down-regulated or lost in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), suggesting that loss of this gene is involved in carcinogenesis of hepatocytes (PMID:12971969). This gene maps to the 3'-noncoding region of the HEPACAM gene (GeneID:220296) on the antisense strand. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

HHCM Gene

Mahlavu hepatocellular carcinoma

This gene is unusual in that it is mostly made up of L1 repeat elements. However, there is a study suggesting that this gene is transcribed and translated, and that it has oncogenic transforming activity when transfected into rat liver cells and NIH3T3 fibroblasts. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]

HULC Gene

hepatocellular carcinoma up-regulated long non-coding RNA

This gene produces a long RNA that was discovered as upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and is associated with cancer progression. Expression of this transcript is regulated by microRNAs and at the transcriptional level by Sp1 family factors. The transcript may regulate gene expression by functioning as a competing RNA for microRNAs. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2017]

HAVCR2 Gene

hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, and TIM family of proteins. CD4-positive T helper lymphocytes can be divided into types 1 (Th1) and 2 (Th2) on the basis of their cytokine secretion patterns. Th1 cells are involved in cell-mediated immunity to intracellular pathogens and delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions, whereas, Th2 cells are involved in the control of extracellular helminthic infections and the promotion of atopic and allergic diseases. This protein is a Th1-specific cell surface protein that regulates macrophage activation, and inhibits Th1-mediated auto- and alloimmune responses, and promotes immunological tolerance.
