The mechanism of HBV disruption on RIG-I signaling pathway / 生物医学工程学杂志

ABSTRACT

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection disrupt the innate immunity response, which may play an important role in the chronic mechanism, while retinoic acid-induced gene I (RIG-I) mediated signaling pathway is one of the most important channel in the innate immunity. HBx and HBV polymerase may disrupt RIG-I mediated signaling pathway. The recent advances about HBV and RIG-I are reviewed in this article.
