While the precise receptors used by HIV to enter hepatocytes remain elusive, Iser et al. reported that, despite the inability to detect surface expression of CD4, CCR5, or CXCR4 by flow cytometry, infection with R5 or X4 HIV was inhibited by maraviroc or AMD3100, respectively, suggesting CCR5- or CXCR4-dependent entry[50]. This evidence concerns the gene CXCR4 and infection.
