Core Tip	Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the leading cause of chronic liver disease and death worldwide. Persistent HBV infection is a major risk factor for chronic hepatitis and is the leading cause of liver disease, including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. In the HBV life cycle, hepatocyte nuclear factors (HNFs) play critical roles in covalently closed circular DNA transcription. Control of HNF expression and function could regulate HBV replication. Therefore, understanding the upstream cellular factors or signals involved in the regulation of HNFs is important for controlling HBV replication.
