Inhibitory effect of TCPK1 on HBsAg (A), HBeAg (B), and HBV DNA (C) in the supernatants of HepG2.2.15 cells and the effect on cell viability (D). Lamivudine (3TC) treated for 9 days was used as the positive control in A and B, and for 6 days in C. The promoting effect of TCKP1 on the level of interferon-α (IFN-α) in the culture supernatants (extracellular, (E)) and the cell lysates (intracellular, (F)) of HepG2.2.15 cells after the treatment for 3 days with 25 μg/mL lamivudine (3TC) as the positive control. All values are expressed as means ± S.D. from three separate experiments performed in triplicate. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 vs. the negative control. # p < 0.05 vs. the 3TC positive control.
