HCV-specific IL-21 responses correlate with HCV RNA levels in acute HIV/HCV coinfection.
, 2016 Correlations between combined HCV NS3 and HCV NS4-induced IL-21 (A) and IL-17A (B) secretion from the PBMC of coinfected subjects and RNA levels were evaluated in individuals with acute HCV infection with prior HIV infection at the time of presentation ...

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