Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Is a Novel Predictor of Interferon Responsiveness in Chronic Hepatitis C InfectionSummary

Background & Aims: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) cell entry is mediated by several cell surface receptors, including scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) inhibits the interaction between HCV and SR-BI in a noncompetitive manner. We tested whether serum ox...
