## Abstract Antibodies to the hepatitis C virus (HCV) core of various immunoglobulin classes were determined by enzyme immunoassays with three synthetic peptides, CP14 (amino acids 5‐40 of the core protein), CP10 (5‐23), and CP9 (39‐74). In 135 patients with chronic type C liver disease, anti‐CPU,

A part of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) amino acid sequence, designated as an interferon (IFN)-sensitive determining region (ISDR), has been shown to be correlated with a response to IFN in Japanese patients. We have shown previously that the presence of NS5A antibodies
To investigate the meaning of the mutations in the enhancer 2/core promoter (Enh2/CP) region of hepatitis B virus (HBV) during the chronic HBV infection, mutations were examined in the Enh2/ CP region (carboxyl half of X region) and their correlation with mutations in the precore and core regions in
In patients with chronic hepatitis C, the influence of the genetic heterogeneity of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) on the progression of liver disease and on the responsiveness to interferon therapy is a matter of controversy. In this study we evaluated the genetic complexity of HCV by singlestrand con
## Abstract The relative value of an anti‐hepatitis C virus (HCV) serological assay and reverse transcriptase‐nested polymerase chain reaction assays (RT‐PCR) were investigated for the constant 5′ putative noncoding region of HCV for the diagnosis of HCV‐associated chronic liver diseases in India.
