HBV-driven host chromatin accessibility changes affect liver metabolic pathways, iron homeostasis and promote a preneoplastic phenotype
16 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKROUND AND AIMS: Complex host-virus interactions account for adaptive and innate immunity dysfunctions and viral cccDNA mini-chromosome persistence, key features of HBV chronicity and challenges for HBV cure. The extent of HBV direct impact on liver transcriptome remains controversial. Transcriptional activation in eukaryotic cells is tightly linked with disruption of nucleosome organization at accessible...
