Natural killer cells in hepatitis C: Current progress.

World journal of gastroenterology - 28 Jan 2016

Yoon Joo Chun, Yang Chang Mo, Song Youkyong, Lee Jae Myun

Abstract excerpt

Patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) are characterized by a high incidence of chronic infection, which results in chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The functional impairment of HCV-specific T cells is associated with the evolution of an acute infection to chronic hepatitis. While T cells are the important effector cells in adaptive immunity, natural killer (NK) cells...
