In Vivo Regulation of Hepatitis B Virus Replication by Peroxisome Proliferators
1 Dec 1999
Abstract excerpt
The role of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) in regulating hepatitis B virus (HBV) transcription and replication in vivo was investigated in an HBV transgenic mouse model. Treatment of HBV transgenic mice with the peroxisome proliferators Wy-14,643 and clofibric acid resulted in a less than twofold increase in HBV transcription rates and steady-state levels of HBV RNAs in the...
