Peripheral natural killer cells in chronic hepatitis B patients display multiple molecular features of T cell exhaustion
Antiviral effectors such as natural killer (NK) cells have impaired functions in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. The molecular mechanism responsible for this dysfunction remains poorly characterised. We show that decreased cytokine production capacity of peripheral NK cells from CHB patients was...
