Targeted Induction of Interferon-λ in Humanized Chimeric Mouse Liver Abrogates Hepatotropic Virus Infection

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The interferon (IFN) system plays a critical role in innate antiviral response. We presume that targeted induction of IFN in human liver shows robust antiviral effects on hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV). METHODS: This study used chimeric mice harboring huma...
