Hepatitis E Virus Infection [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2014
SUMMARYHepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is a worldwide disease. An improved understanding of the natural history of HEV infection has been achieved within the last decade. Several reservoirs and transmission modes have been identified. Hepatitis E is an underdiagnosed disease, in part due to the use of serological assays with low sensitivity. However,

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

, 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
