To clarify the virological differences in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with and without liver damage, we assessed HCV markers in 306 patients from a rural area of Japan. Genotypes of HCV RNA were determined by polymerase chain reaction, and levels of RNA were determined by
Hepatic steatosis has been reported as one of the characteristics which discriminates hepatitis C from other forms of hepatitis, besides lymphoid follicles and bile duct damage. However, it is unclear whether or not the presence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) itself is associated with the development of
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been reported to conform to a quasispecies nature, which is most evident in hypervariable regions of the putative envelope 2 domain. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the nucleotide complexity and diversity of hypervariable region 1 and vario
