We previously reported that Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9)-CpG oligonucleotides could inhibit the establishment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections in hepatocytes. Our aim was to uncover underlying mechanisms this inhibition. HepaRG cells, RPMI-B lymphoblastoma and primary plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) exposed HBV TLR9 ligands/agonists various configurations were used. observed an inhibition infection upon stimulations only when agonist applied during inoculation. This independent...
NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) reaches an high prevalence in the general population, and it is closely related to metabolic syndrome (MetS). The entity of abnormalities chronic inflammation seem play a main role development fibrosis. aim our study determine whether subjects with MetS have higher fibrosis degree when compared without MetS, investigate relations between fibrosis, its single components inflammation.We considered 24 patients NAFLD. Those who had viral- alcohol-...
Bacterial infections are the most frequent precipitating event in patients with acute decompensation of cirrhosis (AD) and associated high mortality. Early diagnosis is challenging due to cirrhosis-related systemic inflammation. Here we investigated potential circulating microRNAs diagnose bacterial predict survival cirrhotic AD. High throughput profiling was performed using Nanostring technology 57 AD 24 compensated (CC). Circulating miRs showed that: (a) differentially detected vs. CC were...
Hepatoma Research is an open access journal and focuses on all topics related to hepatoma. The following articles are especially welcome: pathogenesis, clinical examination early diagnosis of hepatoma, complications their preventions treatments, etc.
Abstract Background The amount of HBV RNA in peripheral blood may reflect covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) transcriptional activity within infected hepatocytes. Quantification circulating (cirB-RNA) is thus a promising biomarker for monitoring antiviral treatment. Objectives We evaluated the performance an automated, prototype quantitative assay use on Roche cobas ® 6800/8800 systems. Study Design sensitivity, specificity, linearity, and potential interference by were assessed using...
