Interaction_summary"Consistently, cell killing by HBx was partially suppressed by either ced-3(n2433) or mec-6(e1342) lf mutations and eliminated by loss of both genes (Fig. 2A). These results confirm that HBx induces both apoptosis and necrosis in C. elegans." "Loss of egl-1, ced-3, or ced-4 partially suppressed HBx-induced cell death (from 50% to 22-26% PLM death; Fig. 2A), indicating that HBx induces cell death partly through the apoptotic pathway."
