## Abstract The integration of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in the liver of chronic HBV carriers has been documented extensively. However, the status of the viral genome during acute infection has not been assessed conclusively. While HBV DNA sequences are detected often in serum, liver, and periphe

Since the natural history of hepatitis C virusassociated liver disease and the therapeutic responsiveness might vary according to liver and blood mononuclear cells viral levels, it may be important to quantitate viral RNA in liver, blood mononuclear cells and serum, and to compare these data with ge
In infected individuals, hepatitis C virus (HCV) exists as a variably complex population of related genetic variants known as quasispecies. The quasispecies of HCV were studied previously in 10 chronically infected patients by single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis of a segment of the enve
We are very pleased about the interest and the debate elicited by our article "Acute viral hepatitis increases liver stiffness values measured by transient elastography" 1 and we read with attention Ze-Zhou Song's letter to the editor. First of all, we must say that we are very sorry that Dr. Song h
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is etiologically associated with the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) worldwide. HCV has been reported to exist and replicate in both HCC and adjacent non-cancerous liver tissue, but limited information was available on HCV viral load and quasispecies c
