Hepatic immunopathology during occult hepacivirus re-infection [PDF]
Despite drug advances for Hepatitis C virus (HCV), re-infections remain prevalent in high-risk populations. Unfortunately, the role of preexisting viral immunity and how it modulates re-infection is unclear. GBV-B infection of common marmosets is a useful model to study tissue immune responses in hepacivirus infections, and in this study we re ...

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

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

Prevalence of equine hepacivirus infection in Mongolia
Equine hepacivirus (EHV) belongs to the hepacivirus A and is related to hepatitis C virus (HCV). This virus shows hepatic tropism and is known to chronically infect horses. EHV has been reported from various countries, but the prevalence in Mongolia, where large horse populations are pastured, remains unknown.

Host genetic variation guides hepacivirus clearance, chronicity, and liver fibrosis in mice
Background & Aims Human genetic variation is thought to guide the outcome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection but model systems within which to dissect these host genetic mechanisms are limited.
