A significant sex--but not elective cesarean section--effect on mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis C virus infection

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: Risk factors for mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis C virus (HCV) are poorly quantified. METHODS: We conducted a European multicenter prospective study of HCV-infected pregnant women and their infants.

Seroepidemiology of hepatitis B virus in Addis Ababa Ethiopia: transmission patterns and vaccine control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A community-based seroepidemiological survey of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia was conducted in 1994 to inform on the transmission dynamics and control of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.

Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...

Evaluation of candidate genes associated with hepatitis A and E virus infection in Chinese Han population

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2018
Background Recent GWAS-associated studies reported that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ABCB1, TGFβ1, XRCC1 genes were associated with hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection, and variants of APOA4 and APOE genes were associated with and hepatitis E ...

Three broad modalities in the natural history of vertically acquired hepatitis C virus infection.

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: Little is known about the natural history of vertically acquired hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. METHODS: We performed a large, multicenter, prospective study of children born to HCV-infected women in Europe. Children were considered to

Hepatitis C virus p7 protein is crucial for assembly and release of infectious virions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with chronic liver disease and currently affects about 3% of the world population. Although much has been learned about the function of individual viral proteins, the role of the HCV p7 protein in virus ...

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Determinants of hepatitis C virus clinical outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes
Hepatitis C VIruS (HCY) infection is characterized by a broad spectrum of clinical outcomes. An estimated 14%-46% of individuals exposed to HCY are able to clear the virus, while the other portion develops chronic ...

Viral entry and escape from antibody-mediated neutralization influence hepatitis C virus reinfection in liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
End-stage liver disease caused by chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a leading cause for liver transplantation (LT). Due to viral evasion from host immune responses and the absence of preventive antiviral strategies, reinfection of the graft is
