Circulating programmed death-1 as a marker for sustained high hepatitis B viral load and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Circulating programmed death-1 as a marker for sustained high hepatitis B viral load and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma.

<h4>Objective</h4>Recent evidence indicates a crucial role of the immunoinhibitory receptor programmed death-1 (PD-1) in enforcing T-cell dysfunction during chronic viral infection and cancer. We assessed the impact of circulating soluble PD-1 (sPD-1) levels on long-term dynamics of hepa...
