Identification of genotype 4 Hepatitis E virus binding proteins on swine liver cells.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Increased numbers of Interleukin-17-producing CD4+ T cells (Th17) have been found in association with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced liver injury. However, the mechanism underlying the increase of Th17 responses in patients with HBV infection remains unclear. In this study, we investigate the possible regul...
