Abstract

Glucose-6-phosphatase dehydrogenase is an enzyme with an important biochemical role. Its deficiency may be related to cell growth suppression, metastasis and tumor generation. Offering an expectation of protection against the development of some carcinomas, such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the focus of this study. This is a literature review, articles searched on digital platforms and consolidated literature. Reviewing the pathophysiology of the development of HCC, seeking to understand how G6PD and its deficiency could be related.
