Figure 1 Hepatitis B virus life cycle and covalently clos circular DNA. A: Hepatitis B virus entry and replication in host cell; B: Relaxed-circular DNA (rcDNA) conversion into covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA). HBV: Hepatitis B virus; cccDNA: Covalently clos circular DN; rcDNA: Relaxed-circular DNA.

Figure 2 Proposed mechanisms for the role of covalently closed circular DNA in hepatocarcinogenesis. A: Modulation of miR-154/PCNA/covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) signaling; B: Modulation of HBV X protein (HBx)/STAT3/miR-539/APOBEC3B; C: Positive feedback loop of HULC and HBx/MSL2/cccDNA; D: HBx/DLEU2 interaction to activate cccDNA; E: HBx/DLL4/Notch 1 signaling pathway; F: Reduction of cccDNA levels to avoid immune recognition.
