After cells were exposed to TP for 3, 6, 9 days, amounts of HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV-DNA released into the supernatant of the cultured HepG2 2.2.15 cells were detected. TP, to some extent, inhibited the secretion of HBsAg and strongly suppressed the secretion of HBeAg in a dose-dependent （P〈0.01） and time-dependent manner, with 50% maximal inhibitory concentration （IC50） value being 7.34μg/mL on the 9th day, but the time-dependence was not significant （P=0.051）. Expression of HBV-DNA in the supernatant of the cell culture also was significantly decreased in a dose-dependent fashion （P〈0.01）. The ICS0 of TP in inhibiting HBV DNA was 2.54 pg/mL. It concluded that TP possessed potential anti-HBV effects and may be used as a treatment alternative for HBV infection.展开更多
