Stable Expression of a Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) RNA Replicon in Two Mammalian Cell Lines to Assess Mechanism of Innate Immunity and Antiviral Response

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is one of the major etiological agents responsible for acute hepatitis. Hepatitis E virus does not replicate efficiently in mammalian cell cultures, thus a useful model that mimics persistent HEV replication is needed to dissect the molecular mechanism of pathogenesis. Here w...
