## Abstract The clinical and virological significance of lowβlevel viremia by hepatitis B virus (HBV) in hepatitis C virus (HCV)βinfected patients remains unclear. HBVβDNA and HCVβRNA were, therefore, quantitatively analyzed in livers and sera from coβinfected patients. HBVβDNA and HCVβRNA were qua

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
Virus variants escaping from host immunity may be implicated in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. In this cross-sectional study, the association was evaluated of the frequency of amino acid variation within the immunogenic epitopes of surface gene with different disease stages o
The significance of antibodies to hepatitis C virus in patients with chronic alcoholic liver disease is unclear. Prior studies have utilized the first-generation enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, which is limited by problems with sensitivity and specificity. Hepatitis C virus infection in 137 pati
