Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Natural killer (NK) cells play an important role in immune responses to virus infection. The cell population consists of CD56(bright) (bright-subset) and CD56(dim) (dim-subset) subsets that possess armed functions of cytokine production and cytolysis, respectively. How these subsets are involved in chronic hepatitis C virus infection (CHC) remains obscure. METHODS: We investigated the frequency,...
