Reduction of Liver Fibrosis After Treatment with Elbasvir/Grazoprevir in Patients with Hepatitis C Infection in Chronic Kidney Disease on Hemodialysis, a Quasi-Experimental Study

open access: yesThe Indonesian Journal of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Digestive Endoscopy, 2021
Background: Approximately 5-60% of hemodialysis patients have comorbid of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The survival rate of hemodialysis patients HCV is lower than those without HCV due to the risk of liver fibrosis and cardiovascular disease.

17,β-estradiol inhibits hepatitis C virus mainly by interference with the release phase of its life cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Rationale & Aim: Estrogen and estrogen-mediated signalling protect from hepatitis C virus through incompletely understood mechanisms. We aimed to ascertain which phase(s) of HCV life cycle is/are affected by estrogens.

The Immunohistochemical Staining of Vimentin and E-Cadherin in Bladder Cancer Patients Infected with Hepatitis C Virus

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2023
The invasion and spread of cancer cells are two of the most notable characteristics of malignant tumors. Recent studies suggest that the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been linked to this significant occurrence.

Is the HCV-HIV co-infection prevalence amongst injecting drug users a marker for the level of sexual and injection related HIV transmission?

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Amongst injecting drug users (IDUs), HIV is transmitted sexually and parenterally, but HCV is transmitted primarily parenterally. We assess and model the antibody prevalence of HCV amongst HIV-infected IDUs (denoted as HCV-HIV co-infection ...

Hepatoma cell density promotes claudin-1 and scavenger receptor BI expression and hepatitis C virus internalization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry occurs via a pH- and clathrin-dependent endocytic pathway and requires a number of cellular factors, including CD81, the tight-junction proteins claudin 1 (CLDN1) and occludin, and scavenger receptor class B member I (SR-BI).

CCR5Δ32 in HCV infection, HCV/HIV co-infection, and HCV-related diseases

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
Although a potential involvement of the CCR5Δ32 variant has already been suggested in relation to susceptibility to hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, data from the literature is still quite controversial. Thus, our study evaluated the influence of the CCR5Δ32 allele variant in HCV infection, HCV/HIV co-infection, and HCV-related diseases in ...

HCV Extrahepatic Manifestations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Hepatology, 2019
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been shown to affect many tissues other than liver. However, of the many extrahepatic manifestations (EMs) that have been associated with HCV, including cryoglobulinemia, lymphoma, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and neurological disorders, only a few have been shown to be directly related to HCV infection of ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
