## Abstract Infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is associated with lymphoproliferative disorders, represented by essential mixed cryoglobulinemia and Bβcell nonβHodgkin's lymphoma, but the pathogenic mechanism remains obscure. HCV may infect B cells or interact with their cell surface receptors,
Starting from the observation that a number of consecutive patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) resulted positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies on routine testing, we set up a survey for HCV contact prevalence in all patients with lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) followed in our in
## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA persistence in the liver has been described even after apparent resolution of HCV infection. Because Tβcell reactivity plays a role in recovery from HCV infection, virusβspecific Tβcell responses were investigated in apparently recovered individuals in whom h
