Abstract

The elimination of viral covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) from the nucleus of infected hepatocytes is an obstacle to achieving sustained viral clearance during antiviral therapy of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. The aim of our study was to determine whether treatment with siRNA is able to suppress viral cccDNA amplification using a HBV-transgenic mice model. The experimental results revealed that siRNAs can serve as efficient alternative anti-HBV agents, because they showed better inhibitory effect on viral replication and antigen expression in transgenic mice. More importantly, the siRNA markedly inhibited HBV cccDNA amplification.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 July 2014.
All research outputs
#14,655,561
of 22,758,963 outputs
Outputs from Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics
#332
of 910 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#123,981
of 221,208 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics
#8
of 19 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,758,963 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 910 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 221,208 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 19 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its contemporaries.
