Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection afflicts millions of people in the United States and worldwide. We examine the epidemiology of HCV infection, the molecular biology of the virus, the pathophysiology of infection, the clinical diagnosis and manifestations of infection, and the treatment of HCV infection.

Breakthroughs in hepatitis C research: from discovery to cure
In the 1970s, an unknown virus was suspected for documented cases of transfusion-associated hepatitis, a phenomenon called non-A, non-B hepatitis. In 1989, the infectious transmissible agent was identified and named hepatitis C virus (HCV) and, soon ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major health problem worldwide. The effects of chronic infection include cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, and hepatocellular carcinoma. As a result of shared routes of transmission, co-infection with HIV is a substantial problem, and individuals infected with both viruses have poorer outcomes than do peers ...
