Activation of Pattern Recognition Receptor-Mediated Innate Immunity Inhibits the Replication of Hepatitis B Virus in Human Hepatocyte-Derived Cells
30 Oct 2008
Abstract excerpt
Recognition of virus infections by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), and melanoma differentiation associated gene 5 (MDA5), activates signaling pathways, leading to the induction of inflammatory cytokines that limit viral replication. To determine the effects of PRR-mediated innate immune response on hepatitis B virus (HBV)...
