ICAA Disrupts HBV Through HO-1–ROS Modulation
2026-08-12
The reference study shows that isochlorogenic acid A (ICAA) suppresses hepatitis B virus replication at several points, including transcription, cccDNA maintenance, capsid maturation, and envelopment. Its effects correlate with HO-1 upregulation and altered intracellular ROS, providing a mechanistic framework for studying redox control of HBV morphogenesis rather than treating ICAA as a single-target antiviral.
