Disease: Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C
0.040 Biomarker disease BEFREE The cytolysis of HCV-infected hepatocytes is mediated by perforin and granzyme B secreted by cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) and natural killer (NK) cells, whereas noncytolytic HCV clearance is mediated by interferon gamma (IFN-γ) secreted by CTL and NK cells. 31027278 2019

Hepatitis C
0.040 Biomarker disease BEFREE Compared to controls, virally infected pts displayed significantly lower circulating Vα7.2+CD161++CD8+ MAIT cells (<i>p</i> = 0.001), yet expressed higher perforin (<i>p</i> = 0.004) and granzyme B (<i>p</i> = 0.002) on CD8+ MAIT cells.Upon <i>E. coli</i> stimulation, the residual MAIT cells are less functional particularly those from HIV+/HCV+ patients. 31555223 2019
