  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often has an insidious onset, and most patients are in the advanced stage and have lost the best opportunity for treatment at the time of diagnosis, resulting in a poor prognosis. As a multifunctional transcription factor, Yin Yang 1 (YY1) regulates the transcription of a variety of important genes and plays a key role in various tumors. Previous studies have shown that YY1 affects many biological behaviors such as proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and angiogenesis and is closely associated with drug resistance and poor prognosis of HCC. This article reviews the research advances in the role of YY1 in the development and progression of HCC, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of HCC.
