Abstract:
Sphingolipids and their metabolites are not only important structural molecules of the cell membrane,but also involved in all phases of viral life cycle,including cell adhesion,membrane fusion,viral replication,viral assembly,intracellular transport,protein sorting,and exocytosis.In recent years,sphingolipids have become one of the focuses of lipid research.This article reviews the role of sphingolipids in the life cycles of hepatitis C virus and hepatitis B virus with reference to recent research achievements in China and foreign countries.
