Role of NKG2 receptors-mediated natural killer cell activation in chronic HBV infection / 中华临床感染病杂志

The activation of NK cell , mediated by natural killer group 2 ( NKG2 ) family receptor , plays an important role in antiviral immune response and disease progression after hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.To explore the NKG2 receptors-mediated NK cell activation and its mechanism may be of value for anti-HBV targeting immune treatment .This article reviews the recent research progress on the role of NK cells and its NKG2 family receptors in immunity of chronic HBV infection and its mechanisms .
