Treatment with HMGB1 inhibitors diminishes CTL-induced liver disease in HBV transgenic mice.

Using hepatitis B virus (HBV) transgenic mice as recipients of virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), we recently showed that polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) and the matrix-degrading metalloproteinases (MMPs) they produce are necessary for the intrahepatic recruitment of antigen nonspec...
