Influence of T-helper cell subsets and crossregulation in hepatitis B virus infection.

abstract：:The establishment of an in vitro system for hepatitis C virus (HCV) propagation is essential to characterize virus replication, virus persistence and viral pathogenicity. The aim was to establish HCV replication in HepG2 cells by gene transfer of infectious HCV cDNA. First, several gene transfer methods were evaluated...
