Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To understand the mechanism of HBV infection, we have attempted mass spectrometry of the lipid fraction of HBV-infected cells using mouse-passaged primary human hepatocytes. It was found that while the secretion of fatty acids is increased in uninfected cells, it is suppressed by HBV infection. Next, non-targeted analysis of lipids from HBV-infected cells was performed to search for novel lipids that are altered by HBV infection by principal component analysis. We found four unique peaks that were altered by HBV infection.
