Seroepidemiology of non-primate hepacivirus (NPHV) in Japanese native horses

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2018
Non-primate hepacivirus (NPHV) is recently identified as a closely related homologue of hepatitis C virus. The previous studies showed a high prevalence of NPHV infection among Japanese domestic horses originated from abroad. The historical distribution of NPHV among horses in Japan, therefore, is still unknown. In this study, seroepidemiological study

Metabolic Dysregulation in Hepacivirus Infection of Common Marmosets (Callithrix jacchus)

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2017
Chronic hepatitis C has been associated with metabolic syndrome that includes insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis and obesity. These metabolic aberrations are risk factors for disease severity and treatment outcome in infected patients. Experimental infection of marmosets with GBV-B serves as a tangible, small animal model for human HCV infection ...

Hepatitis C in North Africa: A Comprehensive Review of Epidemiology, Genotypic Diversity, and Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvances in Virology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is implicated in carcinogenic infections like hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Given that no HCV vaccine is currently available, comprehensive epidemiological understanding is crucial for devising effective prevention strategies.

Metatranscriptomic Analysis Uncovers RNA Virus Diversity in Ticks From the China–Russia–North Korea Border Region

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Ticks serve as critical viral vectors, and border regions, acting as convergence zones of complex ecosystems, provide diverse habitats for ticks and their hosts, thereby underscoring the need to investigate the tick‐borne virome composition in such areas. In this study, metatranscriptomic analysis of five tick species, namely Haemaphysalis longicornis,

Natural reservoirs for homologs of hepatitis C virus

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2014
Hepatitis C virus is considered a major public health problem, infecting 2%–3% of the human population. Hepatitis C virus infection causes acute and chronic liver disease, including chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
