Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a potential new approach against hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection but unfortunately it also selects resistant virus mutants. In this study we combined the advantages of artificial micro RNAs (amiRNAs) reported previously with the purpose of constructing a more practical amiRNA with high inhibition effects against HBV. METHOD: Aiming at conserved sites,...
