Dynamic change of cytokines/chemokines in patients with CHB during antiviral treatment.
In patients with or without HBeAg seroconversion, the levels of cytokines and chemokines declined significantly after 1 year of antiviral treatment. Serum levels of cytokines and chemokines showed opposite trends compared with the first year, except that the levels of IL-4, IL-6, and MIP-1α continued to decrease in both groups.
