%0 Journal Article %T LIGHT Induces Distinct Signals to Clear an AAV-Expressed Persistent Antigen in the Mouse Liver and to Induce Liver Inflammation %A Michael L. Washburn %A Grigoriy I. Kovalev %A Ekaterina Koroleva %A Yang-Xin Fu %A Lishan Su %J PLOS ONE %D 2012 %I Public Library of Science (PLoS) %R 10.1371/journal.pone.0010585 %X Infection with adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector with liver tropism leads to persistent expression of foreign antigens in the mouse liver, with no significant liver inflammation or pathology. This provides a model to investigate antigen persistence in the liver and strategies to modulate host immunity to reduce or clear the foreign antigen expressed from AAV vector in the liver. %U http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0010585
