[HCV infection and specific T lymphocyte immunity]
Abstract:
Adaptive immunity, especially the cellular immunity mediated by T lymphocytes, plays an important role in the body's fight against hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The clearance of HCV requires a strong, sustained, and multi-epitope response from specific T lymphocytes, and the dysfunction of specific T lymphocytes is the major reason for chronic infection. Effective treatment can restore the function of specific T lymphocytes to a certain extent. This article reviews the features and related mechanisms of immune response from specific T lymphocytes when the prognosis of patients with HCV infection is different.

Immune Response Against Viral Pathogens
NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
