Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) stands as a significant contributor to global cancer-related mortality. Chronic inflammation, often arising from diverse sources such viral hepatitis, alcohol misuse, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and steatohepatitis (NASH), profoundly influences HCC development. Within this context, the interplay of extracellular vesicles (EVs) gains prominence. EVs, encompassing exosomes microvesicles, mediate cell-to-cell communication cargo transfer, impacting various biological processes, including inflammation cancer progression. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), key sentinel innate immune system, recognizes both pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) damage-associated (DAMPs), thereby triggering signaling cascades pro-inflammatory cytokine release. The intricate involvement TLR4 pathway in chronic pathogenesis is discussed study. Moreover, we delve into therapeutic potential modulating using EVs novel agents for HCC. This review underscores multifaceted role context proposes innovative avenues targeted interventions against formidable disease.

Background This study aims to screen inflammation-related genes closely associated with the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accurately forecast HCC patients. Methods Gene expression matrices and clinical information for liver cancer samples were obtained from Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) International Consortium (ICGC). An intersection differentially expressed normal GeneCards yielded HCC. Cox regression minor absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) analysis filter prognosis. The prognostic value model was confirmed by drawing Kaplan–Meier ROC curves. Select between high-risk low-risk groups perform GO KEGG pathways analyses. CIBERSORT conducted assess associations risk models immune cells verified using real-time qPCR. Results A total six hub (C3, CTNNB1, CYBC1, DNASE1L3, IRAK1, SERPINE1) selected multivariate construct a model. validation evaluation showed that it has an excellent ability predict line plot drawn indicate patients’ survival, calibration curve revealed satisfactory predictability. Among genes, C3 DNASE1L3 are relatively low in HCCLM3 97H cell lines, while SERPINE1 overexpressed lines.
