The discovery of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in 1989 permitted basic research to unravel critical
components of a complex life cycle for this important human pathogen. HCV is a highly …

International standardization and coordination of the nomenclature of variants of hepatitis C
virus (HCV) is increasingly needed as more is discovered about the scale of HCV‐related …

Background & Aims: Although the hepatitis C virus (HCV) subgenomic replicon system has
been widely used in the study of HCV, this system is available only for a few related …

Recent studies have focused on whether different hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes are
associated with different profiles of pathogenicity, infectivity, and response to antiviral …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major causative pathogen associated with liver cirrhosis and
hepatocellular carcinoma. The virus has a positive‐sense RNA genome encoding a single …

This paper presents a summary of the recommendations that were formulated for the
purposes of unifying the nomenclature for hepatitis C virus (HCV), based upon guidelines of …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major health problem in Egypt, where the
seroprevalence is 10–20-fold higher than that in the United States. To characterize the HCV …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) causes acute and chronic hepatitis which can eventually lead to
permanent liver damage, hepatocellular carcinoma and death. Currently, there is no vaccine …

The aim of the study was to analyse the current literature regarding the mode of transmission
of HCV and its global prevalence in different groups of people. A systematic review of the …

The core protein of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is believed to form the capsid shell of virus
