## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV), a positive stranded RNA virus, is the main causative agent of post‐transfusion and sporadic non‐A non‐B hepatitis worldwide. Paired samples of plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 11 patients with chronic hepatitis C treated with α‐interfero
## Abstract In order to assess the efficacy of interferon‐α on hepatitis C viral RNA in patients with chronic hepatitis C, we analyzed the levels of HCV RNA in sera and liver tissues of 16 patients pre‐ and posttreatment using a semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction method. Fifteen of 16 patie
## Abstract Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) represent an extrahepatic hepatitis C virus (HCV) reservoir, the significance of which is unclear due to limited studies and varying test methodologies. In this study, a commercial viral load assay for measuring cell‐associated PBMC HCV RNA was
## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) requires reverse transcriptase‐polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) or branched DNA signal amplification assays to be detected in patient samples. Although conventional methods of RNA isolation are employed for samples of serum, plasma, and peripheral blood mononuc
