Human hepatocytes infected by hepatitis B virus (HBV) produce the proinflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-). In this study, we explored the mechanism of induction of TNF- synthesis by HBV. We found that the stable HBV-transfected hepatoma cell line, 2. 2.15, expressed high-molecular-wei
Interferon-a elicits antiviral and immunoregulatory activities by binding to specific receptors on the cell surface. In this study, binding characteristics of interferon-a to peripheral blood mononuclear cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection were studied using radioiodinated rec
Previous studies demonstrated that peripheral blood lymphocytes are cytotoxic to autologous hepatocytes in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. We examined whether cytotoxicity is specifically directed against hepatocytes expressing HBsAg or HBcAg. Viral antigens were detected by immun
