In vivo hepatocellular expression of interleukin-22 using penetratin-based hybrid nanoparticles as potential anti-hepatitis therapeutics

Hepatocellular injury is the pathological hallmark of hepatitis and a crucial driver for the progression of liver diseases, while the treatment options are commonly restricted. Interleukin-22 (IL-22) has attracted special attention as a potent survival factor for hepatocytes that both prevents and repairs the injury of hepatocytes through activation of STAT3 signaling pathway. We hypothesized that the ability to generate potent expression of...
