Hepatitis C virus and the brain
Journal of Viral Hepatitis, 2012Summary. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped, positive‐strand RNA virus of the family Flaviviridae that primarily infects hepatocytes, causing acute and chronic liver disease. HCV is also associated with a variety of extrahepatic symptoms including central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities, cognitive dysfunction, fatigue and depression.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects an estimated 170 million persons worldwide and thus represents a viral pandemic, one that is five times as widespread as infection with the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The institution of blood-screening measures in developed countries has decreased the risk of transfusion-associated hepatitis to a ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has a high propensity to establish chronic infection with end‐stage liver disease. The high turnover of virus particles and high transcription error rates due to lack of proof‐reading function of the viral polymerase imply that HCV exists as quasispecies, thus enabling the virus to evade the host immune response.

Hepatitis C virus and malignancy
Hepatology Research, 2007Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a hepatotropic virus that causes chronic hepatitis, fibrosis and cirrhosis. HCV is associated with the development of primary liver tumors, namely hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma and lymphoma. This article reviews HCV‐related malignancies, and their prevalence and probable oncogenesis.

Hepatitis C virus and arthritis
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 2003Arthritis is one of the several autoimmune disorders induced by HCV infection. There is not a specific clinical pattern of HCV-related arthritis, but two nonerosive subsets have more frequently been described: a RA-like polyarthritis and a less common mono-oligoarthritis involving medium-sized and large joints, often showing an intermittent course ...

Replication of hepatitis C virus
Journal of Viral Hepatitis, 1996SUMMARY. The mode of replication of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains poorly understood. Attempts to produce a tissue culture model containing replicating HCV have been largely unsuccessful. Recent studies on sera from patients chronically infected with HCV have shown that viral particles may be found in high‐or low‐density fractions.

Epidemiology of the Hepatitis C Virus
Vox Sanguinis, 1998AbstractAccording to WHO estimations, about 3 % of the world population may be infected with the hepatitis C virus. The relative prevalences of subtypes of this virus vary in different geographic areas. The main known routes of transmission are parenteral; intravenous drug abuse, contaminated injection devices and receipt of unscreened blood.

The Economics of Hepatitis C Virus
Clinics in Liver Disease, 2006Hepatitis C virus is a disease of major public health significance throughout the world in terms of overall morbidity and mortality and in its economic consequences and demands on medical resources. The global economic burden of this disease has yet to be fully realized.

Hepatitis C, previously termed parenterally transmitted NANB hepatitis, is caused by a single-stranded RNA virus (HCV). Infection with this virus has epidemiologic characteristics similar to hepatitis B, with infection from contaminated blood appearing to be a primary source of disease.
