Abstract excerpt

Chronic hepatitis C (HCV) represents one of the most common chronic infections worldwide and is a major indication for liver transplantation. Liver inflammation is the main predictor of advanced fibrosis in HCV. Inflammatory cells are recruited to the liver by chemokines. Recently, a novel class of chemokine receptors has been characterized that lack signaling functions and are termed scavenger receptors. We...
