Deubiquitination and Activation of the NLRP3 Inflammasome by UCHL5 in HCV-Infected Cells

Deubiquitination and Activation of the NLRP3 Inflammasome by UCHL5 in HCV-Infected Cells

ABSTRACT Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection induces liver inflammation that can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Inflammation is the outcome of the action of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, including interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis facto...
