HBV Core Protein Enhances Cytokine Production
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, a cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), remains a serious global health concern. HCC development and human hepatocarcinogenesis are associated with hepatic inflammation caused by host interferons and cytokines. This article focused on the association between the HBV core protein, which is one of the HBV-encoding proteins, and cytokine production. The HBV co...
متن کاملrapamycin enhances hbv production by inducing cellular autophagy
conclusions these results indicated a potential explanation for reactivation of hbv infection when patients with hepatitis receive rapamycin. results in hepg2.2.15 cells, hbv dna and hbsag increased when host cells were treated with rapamycin and the effect was reversed by autophagy inhibitor, 3-methyladenine (3-ma). materials and methods hepg2.2.15 cells were treated with rapamycin to induce a...
متن کاملRapamycin Enhances HBV Production by Inducing Cellular Autophagy
BACKGROUND Some reports revealed that rapamycin could reactivate HBV infection. However, the mechanism has not been clearly explained. OBJECTIVES In this report, we studied the mechanism by which rapamycin enhances HBV replication and expression by inducing cellular autophagy. MATERIALS AND METHODS HepG2.2.15 cells were treated with rapamycin to induce autophagy. Autophagosomes were observe...
متن کاملHyperosmotic stress enhances cytokine production and decreases phagocytosis in vitro
INTRODUCTION Hyperglycemia is associated with negative outcomes in various settings of critical illness; infectious complications, especially, seem to be increased. On the other hand, intensive insulin therapy (IIT) has been shown to improve outcome in clinical trials. Whether normoglycemia itself or the application of insulin is responsible for the observed findings is unknown. We therefore te...
متن کاملZoledronic acid inhibits macrophage SOCS3 expression and enhances cytokine production.
Suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS3) has multiple functions including inhibition of Janus kinase (Jak) activity, regulation of protein degradation, and suppression of cytokine signaling. SOCS3 modulates macrophage response to cytokines such as IL-6 and leptin that are systemically induced in obesity. Obesity is a suspected risk factor for SOCS3-related pathology such as rheumatoid arthrit...
