DNA methylation patterns of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor gamma gene associated with liver fibrosis and inflammation in chronic hepatitis B
6 Feb 2013
Abstract excerpt
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma) is a nuclear receptor that regulates gene expression of inflammatory mediators in liver injury. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) suppresses the PPAR gamma-mediated transactivation in liver cancerous cell lines. However, the role of PPAR gamma in patients with chronic HBV infection has not fully demonstrated. Our present study was firstly to determine the...
