Interferon signaling suppresses the unfolded protein response and induces cell death in hepatocytes accumulating hepatitis B surface antigen
2020-12-22
Abstract excerpt
Virus infection, such as hepatitis B virus (HBV), often causes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The unfolded protein response (UPR) is counteractive machinery to ER stress, and the failure of UPR to cope with ER stress results in cell death. Mechanisms that regulate the balance between ER stress and UPR in HBV infection is poorly understood. Type 1 and type 2 interferons have been implicated in hepatic flares du...
