Zusammenfassung
Aims: The function of the hepatic innate immune system and its role in the defence against Hepatitis C Virus infection are not well understood. Recent publications suggested that type-III interferons (IFN; Interleukin-28A, -28B and -29) play a crucial role in the host response against HCV. Aim of this study was to investigate the Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling in primary human hepatocytes and the capacity of these cells to produce type-III IFNs and their ability to control HCV replication. Methods: Human liver samples were obtained after tumor resection (n=16) or liver transplantation (n=14). Human hepatocyt…
