A subset of liver resident natural killer cells is expanded in hepatitis C-infected patients with better liver function
Abstract Viral hepatitis leads to immune-mediated liver injury. The rate of disease progression varies between individuals. We aimed to phenotype immune cells associated with preservation of normal liver function during hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Clinical data and specimens were obtained fro...
