Both SCA1 and SCA5 demonstrated secondary associations with the right caudate, whereas the SCA6 group had no such associations. Conclusions These results demonstrate that although primary aspects of a brain network may remain functional, pathophysiological processes associated with different SCA genotypes may express themselves in alterations of broader, secondary brain networks. These secondary networks may reflect generic functional associations with the primary predictor regions, compensatory activity in the presence of an SCA, SCA pathology, or some combination of these factors.Failure of current therapies to cure chronic hepatitis B has led to renewed interest in therapies that stimulate the host immune system. APOBEC3 (A3) family enzymes have been shown to induce mutations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) leading to inhibition of HBV transcription and replication. Pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists have been reported to suppress HBV, but it is unclear whether these agonists induce A3 gene expression in hepatocytes. We, therefore, evaluated whether PRR signaling activates the expression of A3 genes and other innate immunity genes and restricts HBV infection. HepG2-sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) cells were infected with HBV and treated with various PRR agonists. The level of HBV infection was subsequently assessed by measurement of HBV biomarkers, including HBV DNA, cccDNA, HBs, and HBe antigens in infected hepatocytes. Among all tested PRR ligands, only Poly(IC)-HMW/LyoVec and Poly(IC)-HMW significantly inhibited hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), HBV DNA, and cccDNA, whereas R848 and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) only showed significant inhibition on HBsAg and HBeAg, but not virus DNA. CpG and Pam3CSK4, on the other hand, had no significant inhibitory effe
