DNA extracts from hepatocellular carcinomas of 13 patients from South Africa were examined for hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA sequences by molecular hybridization using [32P]-labeled recombinant, cloned, and purified HBV-DNA. Eight patients were HBV carriers as demonstrated by the presence of hepatitis
It has been postulated that tumor cells expressing Fas ligand (FasL) can evade immune surveillance by inducing apoptosis in T cells expressing Fas. In this study, we investigated FasL expression in 13 human hepatoma cell lines. Strong FasL expression was detected by reverse transcriptionpolymerase c
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) interferes with interferon (IFN)-mediated innate immune defenses. Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 agonists robustly inhibit HCV infection. We hypothesize that HCV infection may interfere with the expression and/or function of TLR7, a sensor of single-stranded RNA. We identified re
