SNRPB promotes the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma via regulating cell cycle, oxidative stress, and ferroptosis.

ABSTRACT: Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Polypeptides B and B1 (SNRPB) have been linked to multiple human cancers. However, the mechanism of SNRPB in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and whether SNRPB has a synergistic effect with sorafenib in the treatment of HCC remain unclear. In this study, bioinformatic analysis found that SNRPB was an independent prognostic factor for HCC that exerted a critical effect on the progression of HCC. SNRPB was linked with immune checkpoints, cell cycle, oxidative stress and ferroptosis in HCC. Single cell sequencing analysis found that HCC cell subset with high expression of SNRPB, accounted for a higher proportion in HCC cells with higher stages, had higher expression levels of the genes which promote cell cycle, inhibit oxidative stress and ferroptosis, and had hi
