TRAIL dependent fratricidal killing of gp120 primed hepatocytes by HCV core expressing hepatocytes.
The mechanism by which HIV and HCV cooperatively accelerate hepatocyte damage is not clearly understood; however, each virus affects the TRAIL: TRAIL-receptor system. We, therefore, questioned whether the independent effects of HCV and HIV combine to synergistically result in TRAIL dependent hepatoc...
