Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) have been shown to play a role in host defense and pathogenesis of chronic HCV infection. Our aim was to test the hypothesis that intrahepatic HCV-specific CTL activity may impact subsequent response to interferon alfa (IFN-β£) therapy. O

We assessed the correlation between hepatitis C virus replication and antibody responses toward hepatitis C virus core ((222-31, NS3 (C33C1, NS4 (5-1-1 and C100-3) and NS5 proteins in 59 virus carriers. The concentration of serum hepatitis C virus RNA was determined by a competitive reverse transcri

Patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis who are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) may test consistently anti-HCV negative. Because CD4(+) T-cells provide help for antibody production virus-specific effector CD4(+) T-cell responses were investigated in relation to anti-HCV pos
