Olfactory receptors (ORs) are a class of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) widely distributed in olfactory sensory neurons and various non-olfactory tissues, serving significant physiological and pathological functions in the human body. Increasing evidence reveals the heightened expression of olfactory receptors in tumorous tissues and cells alongside normal tissues. Olfactory receptors have demonstrated influence over tumor cell proliferation and metastasis, establishing a close relationship with tumor initiation and progression.

Although the treatment of liver cancer has made great progress, the mechanism of its occurrence is not completely clear. miR-155 plays an important regulatory role in tumorigenesis and development, including survival, proliferation, migration and invasion. However, the role and regulatory mechanism of miR-155 in liver cancer has rarely been reported.
