Summary. Liver steatosis, diabetes mellitus and hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype have been implicated in liver fibrosis in HCV‐related chronic active hepatitis (CAH). The aim of this study was to evaluate whether steatosis and diabetes were associated with more severe liver fibrosis in patients with genotype 1b HCV‐related CAH.

Efficient Hepatitis C Virus Genotype 1b Core-NS5A Recombinants Permit Efficacy Testing of Protease and NS5A Inhibitors. [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) strains belong to seven genotypes with numerous subtypes that respond differently to antiviral therapies. Genotype 1, and primarily subtype 1b, is the most prevalent genotype worldwide.

Replication and infectivity of a novel genotype 1b hepatitis C virus clone [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hepatitis C virus infection is a major public health problem because of an estimated 170 million carriers worldwide. Genotype 1b is the major subtype of HCV in many countries and is resistant to interferon therapy. Study of the viral life cycle is important for understanding the mechanisms of interferon resistance of genotype 1b HCV strains ...

An infectious molecular clone of a Japanese genotype 1b hepatitis C virus [PDF]
We describe an infectious molecular clone of a Japanese genotype 1b strain of hepatitis C virus (HCV-N). The molecularly cloned sequence of HCV-N was compared with alignments of other HCV sequences, leading to the identification of 15 unique, nonconservative amino acid substitutions within the HCV-N open reading frame (ORF ...

Discovery of Thienoimidazole-Based HCV NS5A Genotype 1a and 1b Inhibitors [PDF]
The discovery of potent thienoimidazole-based HCV NS5A inhibitors is herein reported. A novel method to access the thienoimidazole [5,5]-bicyclic system is disclosed. This method gave access to a common key intermediate (6) that was engaged in Suzuki or Sonogashira reactions with coupling partners bearing different linkers.

An impact of CYP3A4 *1B polymorphism on rifampicin metabolism
Until now, the enzyme systems responsible for biotransformation of the antituberculous drug rifampicin remain unknown. The aim of research was an investigation of the candidate enzymes involved in the biotransformation of rifampicin using the computer ...

Genomic characterization of Brazilian hepatitis C virus genotypes 1a and 1b [PDF]
Parts of 5' non-coding (5' NC) and of E1 envelope regions of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome were amplified from sera of 26 Brazilian anti-HCV antibody-positive patients using the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Fourteen samples were PCR positive with primers from the 5' NC region and 8 of them were also positive with ...

Next-generation sequencing analysis of hepatitis C virus resistance–associated substitutions in direct-acting antiviral failure in South Korea [PDF]
Background/Aims We used next-generation sequencing (NGS) to analyze resistance-associated substitutions (RASs) and retreatment outcomes in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who failed direct-acting antiviral agent (DAA) treatment in

The prevalence of mixed genotype infections in Polish patients with hepatitis C
Objectives: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype has been described as an independent predictor of the response to therapy. A mixed infection with two types of HCV is probably an uncommon event.
