Additionally, interferon-γ-inducible protein of 10 kDa (IP-10), a pleiotropic chemokine derived from different immune and tissue cells, contributes to liver injury in HBV transgenic mice and is also an independent biomarker of post-liver transplantation hepatic fibrosis in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection [10,11]. Here, CXCL10 is linked to Hepatic fibrosis.
