Abstract

Growing scientific evidence has suggested the disrupted regulation of host cell cycle proteins in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-associated liver disease. Since the regulation of cell cycle proteins is closely associated with the control of the proliferation and survival of hepatocytes, any alteration in the regulation of these proteins would significantly contribute to the progression of the HCV disease and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This mini-review aims to provide an overview of available information on hepatic cell cycle modulations during chronic HCV infection.
