The pharmacokinetics of glycyrrh~n (G) in eight patients with chronic hepatitis receiving chronically i.v. administration of 120 mg dose of G was investigated. The plasma concentration of G in the patients after dosing declined in a monophasic manner. However, the pharmacokinetic profiles varied am

Sera from patients with chronic hepatitis C were examined for the presence of GBV-C/HGV RNA by RT-PCR. The amplified products, derived from the 5' non-coding, NS3, and NS5a regions, were detected in 19 (19%) of the 100 HCV RNA-positive samples. Analysis of GBV-C/HGV prevalence rates revealed that du
To evaluate the efficacy of a 12-month course of recombinant interferon alpha (IFN-โฃ2b), and to assess predictive factors of successful response to IFN therapy in chronic active hepatitis C (HCV CAH), 242 patients with histologically proven HCV CAH were assigned randomly to two groups, one treated w
Whether sustained biochemical response and absence of serum HCV RNA in the 6-12 months following suspension of interferon-โฃ (IFN-โฃ) therapy reflect definitive viral clearance in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is controversial. To obtain more information on this topic, HCV RN
The relationships between the pharmacokinetic behaviour of glycyrrhizin and its restorative eect for hepatic function were investigated in patients with chronic hepatitis and in rats chronically treated with carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 -treated rats). In patients, the restorative eects in plasma asp
