    • Abstract:
      Although antiviral drugs can effectively inhibit hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication, the maintenance of chronic inflammation in the liver is still considered to be an important cause for the progression of HBV-related liver disease to liver fibrosis and advanced liver disease. As an endogenous inhibitory receptor of IL-1R and TLR signaling pathways, single immunoglobulin interleukin-1-related receptor (SIGIRR) has been proven to reduce inflammation in tissues to maintain system homeostasis. However, the relationship between SIGIRR expression and HBV replication and inflammatory pathway activation in hepatocytes remains unclear. In this study, hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) upregulated MyD88 in liver cells, promoting NF-κB signaling and inflammatory factor production with LPS treatment, and the cell supernatant accelerated the activation and collagen secretion of hepatic stellate cells. However, SIGIRR overexpression suppressed HBx-mediated MyD88/NF-κB inflammatory signaling activation and inflammatory cytokine production induced by LPS in hepatocytes and HBV replication hepatocytes. Although we did not find any effect of SIGIRR on HBV replication in vitro, this study investigated the role of SIGIRR in blocking the proinflammatory function of HBx, which may provide a new idea for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B.
