To test the potential of ACAT inhibition to act on immune responses at the site of infection, intrahepatic leucocytes (IHL) were isolated from HBV-infected liver tissue and stimulated overnight with OLP spanning the major HBV proteins core (HBc), surface (HBs) and polymerase (pol) (gating strategy Supplementary Fig. 1m). The gene discussed is SOAT1; the disease is infection.
