pubmed:abstractText |
Natural killer (NK) cells are essential early after infection, not only for viral containment but also for timely and efficient induction of adaptive responses. An inhibitory effect of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-E2 proteins on NK cells has been reported, but the features of NK cell responses in the acute phase of hepatitis C are still largely undefined. Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize the function and phenotype of NK cells in the acute phase of infection and compare individuals with chronic and self-limited outcomes.
