The Impact of Interferon Gamma Receptor Expression on the Mechanism of Escape From Host Immune Surveillance in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) plays an important role in host defense mechanism and participates in the progression of chronic liver disease. IFN-gamma exerts its pleiotrophic effects by transcriptional regulation of expression of numerous genes, such as major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and Fas, through interaction with IFN-gamma receptor (IFN-gamma-R). Although hepatocytes in normal liver express...
