Identification of equine hepacivirus infections in France: Facts and Physiopathological insights

open access: hybridJournal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2016
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the main causes of end stage liver diseases (cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma) in humans. In vivo studies have been hampered by a lack of access to relevant animal models. Until recently, the genus Hepacivirus was comprised of seven HCV genotypes, plus GBV-B that infects New World monkeys.

Reconstruction of the historic time course of blood‐borne virus contamination of clotting factor concentrates, 1974–1992

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Factor VIII and IX clotting factor concentrates manufactured from pooled plasma have been identified as potent sources of virus infection in persons with hemophilia (PWHs) in the 1970s and 1980s. To investigate the range and diversity of viruses over this period, we analysed 24 clotting factor concentrates for several blood‐borne viruses ...

Proposed update to the taxonomy of the genera Hepacivirus and Pegivirus within the Flaviviridae family [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2016
Proposals are described for the assignment of recently reported viruses, infecting rodents, bats and other mammalian species, to new species within the Hepacivirus and Pegivirus genera (family Flaviviridae). Assignments into 14 Hepacivirus species (Hepacivirus A– N) and 11 Pegivirus species (Pegivirus A– K) are based

Improving the safety of CAR‐T‐cell therapy: The risk and prevention of viral infection for patients with relapsed or refractory B‐cell lymphoma undergoing CAR‐T‐cell therapy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 99, Issue 4, Page 662-678, April 2024.
Risk factors and prevention recommendations for viral infections in CAR T‐cell therapy. Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell therapy, an innovative immunotherapeutic against relapsed/refractory B‐cell lymphoma, faces challenges due to frequent viral infections.

Electron microscopy: The key to resolve RNA viruses replication organelles

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 121, Issue 4, Page 679-687, April 2024.
Positive‐strand RNA viruses replicate their genome within specialized virus‐induced intracellular compartments called “replication organelles”. Technological advances in electron microscopy allowed detailed characterization of such structures unveiling their three‐dimensional architecture and molecular composition.

A highly divergent hepacivirus-like flavivirus in domestic ducks

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2019
Using random amplification and reverse transcription-PCR, a novel RNA virus was detected in sera of domestic ducks. The full genome of the virus was determined for three strains, identifying the first hepacivirus-like flavivirus in birds. The virus, that we tentatively named duck hepacivirus-like virus (DuHV), possesses several unique molecular ...

Metformin and statins reduce hepatocellular carcinoma risk in chronic hepatitis C patients with failed antiviral therapy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Molecular Hepatology
Background/Aims Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients who failed antiviral therapy are at increased risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study assessed the potential role of metformin and statins, medications for diabetes mellitus (DM) and ...

Development of diagnostic methods and study of the immunoreactivity of a mixture of recombinant core and E2 proteins fused to GST with control serum positive for hepatitis C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped virus that is about 50–70nm in diameter, has positive-strand RNA, and belongs to the genus Hepacivirus and the family Flaviridae.

Equine hepacivirus persistent infection in a horse with chronic wasting

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2017
Equine hepacivirus is the closest homologue of hepatitis C virus. Limited data on the clinical features of this infection are available. We report the identification of a horse with high-titre viremia by equine hepacivirus. Over a 15-month follow-up, the clinical signs and the viremic status persisted, suggesting a chronic evolution.
