Abstract
Hepatitis C virus infection is the main cause ofliver disease worldwide, often leading to chronichepatitis. Recent studies have demonstrated thatmiRNA-122, a liver-specific miRNA, is required forHCV replication in hepatocytes by its binding to the 5’UTR of HCV. Down-regulation of miRNA-122 in vitroand in vivo has led to significant inhibition of viralreplication. In the present article, we report the majorrecent findings on the pFile in questo prodotto:
