Delineating the mechanisms that drive hepatic injury and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression is critical for development of novel treatments for recurrent and advanced HCC but also for the development of diagnostic and preventive strategies. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) acts in concert with several cochaperones and nucleotide exchange factors and plays an essential role in protein quality control that increases survival by protecting cells against environmental stressors.
