In Brief
Children born to mothers who carry HBV
often become chronic HBV carriers. By
developing a mouse model to study this
vertical transmission, Ou and colleagues
find that maternal HBV e antigen
conditions macrophages of the offspring
to suppress the CTL response to HBV,
resulting in HBV persistence in the
offspring.
简单来说
携带HBV的母亲所生的孩子
往往成为慢性HBV携带者。 通过
开发一个鼠标模型来研究这一点
垂直传播,欧和同事
发现母亲HBV e抗原
为后代的巨噬细胞提供条件
抑制CTL对HBV的应答,
导致HBV持久存在于
后代。
Highlights
Developed a mouse model to study effect of maternal HBV on
persistence in offspring
The CTL response to HBV is impaired in the offspring of HBV-
positive mothers
Depletion of macrophages in offspring restores the CTL
response for HBV clearance
Maternal HBeAg enhances PD-L1 expression in
macrophages of offspring to suppress CTL
