In patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV), 2 predominant precursor dendritic cell (DC) subtypes, the myeloid dendritic cell (mDC) and the plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC), were recently found to be functionally impaired. HBV DNA was found to be present in the DC subtypes, but no viral replic
