摘要：
The effect of corticosteroids (Dexamethasone) on hepatitis B virus was investigated in human hepatoblastoma cells stable transfected with recombinant HBV DNA. Dexamethasone was found to cause elevation of HBsAg, HBeAg and viral DNA production. HBV poly(A)+ RNA was significantly increased in cells treated with Dexamethasone. Furthermore, pulse labelled nuclear HBV RNA was also stimulated by Dexamethasone. These findings, suggest that corticosteroids enhance expression of viral gene products by stimulating HBV transcription. © 1990.
