Hepatitis C Virus NS5A and Core protein induce hepatic stellate cells activation promoting fibrosis-related gene regulation on hepatocytes.
Introduction and Objectives: Chronic HCV infection leads to the development of liver fibrosis mediated by intercellular communication between hepatocytes and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). The diverse molecular pathways involved in the development of fibrosis in hepatocytes derived from HSC activati...
