Interferon-alpha treatment rapidly clears Hepatitis E virus infection in humanized mice
Abstract Antiviral treatment options for chronic Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) infections are limited and immunological determinants of viral persistence remain largely unexplored. We studied the antiviral potency of pegylated interferon-α (pegIFNα) against HEV infections in humanized mice and modelled in...
