Core Tip |
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the leading cause of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma in the world. HBV could interact with the host’s innate and adaptive immune responses to establish chronic infection. HBV also interacts with Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and TLR signaling pathways, and regulates host immune responses through the regulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) to some extent. This article focuses on the involvement of miRNA in the association between HBV and TLR signaling pathways and reviews the miRNAs involved in HBV infection. |
