Figure 1 Rab GTPases cycle. i) GDI binding with GDP-bound Rab proteins mediates the dissociation of membrane-bound Rab GTPases from membranes to the cytosol. ii) GEFs facilitate the conversion to active GTP-bound Rab proteins, whereas the transition to inactive GDP-bound Rab proteins is coordinated by GAPs through catalyzing GTP hydrolysis. iii) GTP-bound Rab proteins interact with multiple effectors to execute specific functions.

Figure 2 Rab GTPases can affect cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, metastasis, exosomes and autophagy by mediating membrane transport. Hepatitis B or C virus can interact with Rab GTPases. Some noncoding RNAs can regulate Rab GTPases expression in HCC.
