From: Enchanced levels of apolipoprotein M during HBV infection feedback suppresses HBV replication
Determination of the roles of ApoM in HBV gene expression and viral DNA replication. HepG2.2.15 cells were infected with Flag2B-ApoM and harvested 48 h post-infection. The expression of S protein (A) and E protein (B) of HBV in the supernatant of cell culture was measured by ELISA using diagnostic kits for HBV. The production of core-associated DNA (C) of HBV was determined by real-time PCR. Results represent means of three independent experiments, with derived standard errors shown.
