In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals, the proportion of circulating
mononuclear cells (PBMCs) which carry HIV provirus and the number of HIV proviral …

Little is known about the role of Abs in determining the outcome of hepatitis C virus (HCV)
infection. By using infectious retroviral pseudotypes bearing HCV glycoproteins, we measured …

Background & Aims: Broadly reactive neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) and multispecific T-cell
responses are generated during chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and yet fail to clear …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection of Huh‐7.5 hepatoma cells results in focal areas of infection
where transmission is potentiated by cell‐cell contact. To define route(s) of transmission, …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) can initiate infection by cell-free particle and cell-cell contact-dependent
transmission. In this study we use a novel infectious coculture system to examine these …

Viruses initiate infection by attaching to molecules or receptors at the cell surface. Hepatitis
C virus (HCV) enters cells via a multistep process involving tetraspanin CD81, scavenger …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection leads to progressive liver disease
and is associated with a variety of extrahepatic syndromes, including central nervous …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped positive-stranded RNA hepatotropic virus. HCV
pseudoparticles infect liver-derived cells, supporting a model in which liver-specific molecules …

Nucleotide sequences in three hypervariable regions of the human immunodeficiency virus
type 1 (HIV-1) env gene were obtained by sequencing provirus present in peripheral blood …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) leads to progressive liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma.
Current treatments are only partially effective, and new therapies targeting viral and host …
