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
## 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
