Targeting HBV cccDNA Levels: Key to Achieving Complete Cure of Chronic Hepatitis B

Targeting HBV cccDNA Levels: Key to Achieving Complete Cure of Chronic Hepatitis B

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) caused by HBV infection has brought suffering to numerous people. Due to the stable existence of HBV cccDNA, the original template for HBV replication, chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is difficult to cure completely. Despite current antiviral strategies being able to effectively...
