Efficient Infectious Cell Culture Systems of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Prototype Strains HCV-1 and H77 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The first discovered and sequenced hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome and the first in vivo infectious HCV clones originated from the HCV prototype strains HCV-1 and H77, respectively, both widely used in research of this important human pathogen.

The stability of secreted, acid-labile H77/JFH-1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) particles is altered by patient isolate genotype 1a p7 sequences [PDF]
Secreted infectious particles generated by the genotype 2a JFH-1 hepatitis C virus infectious clone are resistant to acidic pH, whereas intracellular virions remain acid-labile. Thus, JFH-1 particles are thought to undergo pH maturation as they are secreted from the cell. Here, we demonstrate that both infectious intracellular and secreted genotype 1a (

Native-like soluble E1E2 glycoprotein heterodimers on self-assembling protein nanoparticles for hepatitis C virus vaccine design [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a leading cause of chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma worldwide. Development of an E1E2-based HCV vaccine has been hindered by the difficulty of producing a soluble E1E2 (sE1E2) antigen that ...

Spatial interactions in local public debt. Evidence from Poland
The aim of the paper is to investigate spatial interactions among the debt of 2,442 municipalities in Poland over the period 2005–2020. Using the dynamic spatial Durbin model with two-way fixed effects, it provides empirical evidence of positive spatial ...

Assessment of the European Commission's proposals for financing the EU budget in 2021–20271
A major problem in all European Union (EU) budgetary negotiations is the approach of Member States in net return terms (the fair-return approach). EU members compare their contributions to the EU budget with transfers that they receive from the budget ...

Genotype 1a HCV (H77S) Infection System
HCV is a small RNA virus belonging to the genus Hepacivirus within the virus family Flaviviridae. Infection with HCV often leads to chronic liver diseases including chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Current therapy, based on the use of interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) in combination with ribavirin, results in limited success,
