LY6E and TRIM6 mRNA expressions in PBMCs of untreated CHB patients and healthy controls. LY6E (A) and TRIM6 (B) mRNA levels in PBMCs were analysed by qRT-PCR. The expression levels were calculated using the 2^-ΔΔct method (Livak method), with β-actin as the reference gene. P < 0.05 considered as significant
