Modulation of hepatitis B virus replication and hepatocyte differentiation by MicroRNA-1
14 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are highly conserved small noncoding RNAs participating in regulation of various cellular processes. Viruses have been shown to utilize cellular miRNAs to increase their replication in host cells. Until now, the role of miRNAs in hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication has remained largely unknown. In this study, a number of miRNA mimics were transfected into hepatoma cell lines with...
