Research summary

Ourania Andrisani studies how hepatitis B virus (HBV) interacts with liver cells to promote liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma), focusing on RNA-binding proteins, RNA helicases, and epigenetic regulators that control viral replication and gene silencing. Her work also examines how these molecular pathways affect drug responses, such as sensitivity to the cancer drug sorafenib. This research is aimed at understanding mechanisms of virus-driven liver cancer and identifying potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
