Multifactorial heterogeneity of virus-specific T cells and association with the progression of human chronic hepatitis B infection

Dr. Cheng, Yang
Sci Immunol., Feb 08, 2019

Associations between chronic antigen stimulation, T cell dysfunction, and the expression of various inhibitory receptors are well characterized in several mouse and human systems. During chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (CHB), T cell responses are blunted with low frequencies of virus-specific T cells observed, making these parameters difficult to study.
