Hepatitis C Virus-Specific T cell-Derived Transforming Growth Factor beta is Associated with Slow Hepatic Fibrogenesis

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific immune effector responses can cause liver damage in chronic infection. Hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are main effectors of liver fibrosis. We previously identified TGFβ, produced by HCV-specific CD8(+) T cells, as key regulatory cytokine modulating HC...
