Fig. 1. Biological functions and potential clinical applications of HNF4α in cancer.

Fig. 1

Abnormal HNF4α expression is observed in a variety of cancer types, including gastrointestinal and digestive cancers, lung cancers, urogenital cancers, and neuroblastoma, which are depicted in the above figure. In cancer, HNF4α can modulate the differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration, and chemoresistance of cells and may also be used as a diagnostic biomarker.
