Hepatitis C virus (HCV), which was identified in 1989 - 1990. Later it was included in new genus Hepacivirus of the family Flaviviridae. Due the genetic heterogeneity of HCV, viral isolates was decided to classificate on genotypes and sybtypes in ...

Characterization of nonprimate hepacivirus and construction of a functional molecular clone [PDF]
Significance The origin of hepatitis C virus (HCV) has long remained a mystery. Unexpectedly, a plethora of HCV-related hepaciviruses was recently discovered in horses, monkeys, rodents, and bats. These discoveries are of particular interest and may aid in understanding HCV evolution, molecular biology, and natural history. Currently,

Therapy of chronic hepatitis C: Virologic response monitoring [PDF]
Background/Aim. Virological testing is considered to be essential in the management of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in order to diagnose infection, and, most importantly, as a quide for treatment decisions and assess the virological response to ...

Identification of a Novel Hepacivirus in Domestic Cattle from Germany [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hepatitis C virus (HCV) continues to represent one of the most significant threats to human health. In recent years, HCV-related sequences have been found in bats, rodents, horses, and dogs, indicating a widespread distribution of hepaciviruses among animals. By applying unbiased high-throughput sequencing, a novel virus

Treatment of anicteric acute hepatitis C with peginterferon alpha-2a plus ribavirin [PDF]
Background. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the most frequent cause of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma in the world. Acute hepatitis C is the most commonly asymptomatic liver disease with the development of chronic HCV ...

Therapy of acute hepatitis C infection [PDF]
Background. Hepatitis C viral infection is a major cause of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The progression of acute to chronic infection occurs in 50-90% of cases.

Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a curable disease, but the absence of a vaccine remains a major problem in infection prevention. The lack of small animal models and limited access to human liver tissue impede the study of hepatic antiviral ...

Canine hepacivirus is not associated with chronic liver disease in dogs [PDF]
SummaryCanine hepacivirus (CHV) has recently been identified in liver and respiratory tract samples from dogs, and comparative phylogenetic analysis has confirmed it to be the closest genetic relative of hepatitis C virus (HCV) described to date. CHV offers great potential as a model system for HCV, but only if the underlying processes of infection and
