IL-37 induces autophagy in hepatocellular carcinoma cells by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

abstract：:The mechanisms of each subset of immune cells contributing to the pathogenesis of viral hepatitis remain incompletely understood. In this study, we examined the role of liver CD4(-) CD8(-) (double negative, DN) T cells during murine hepatitis virus strain 3 (MHV-3)-induced hepatitis in C3H/HeJ mice. We demonstrate tha...
