Purified hepatitis B virus induces human Mesangial cell proliferation and extracellular matrix expression In Vitro

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) induces proliferation of human mesangial cells (HMCs), and extracellular matrix expression through the deposition of immune complexes in renal tissue. However, it is unclear whether HBV can directly affect HMCs. In this study, the effects of purified HBV on HMC pr...
