Exciting progress has recently been made in understanding the replication of hepatitis C
virus, a major cause of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma …

A hallmark of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication cycle is its tight link with host cell lipid
synthesis. This is best illustrated by the peculiar pathway used for the assembly of infectious …

Autophagy influences numerous cellular processes, including innate and adaptive immunity
against intracellular pathogens. However, some viruses, including dengue virus (DENV) …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a positive strand RNA virus that propagates primarily in the liver.
We show here that the liver‐specific microRNA‐122 (miR‐122), a member of a class of small …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a global public health problem involving chronic infection of the
liver, which can cause liver disease and is linked with liver cancer. Viral innate immune …

A hallmark of hepatitis C virus (HCV) particles is their association with host cell lipids, most
notably lipoprotein components. It is thought that this property accounts for the low density of …

Viruses intricately interact with and modulate cellular membranes at several stages of their
replication, but much less is known about the role of viral lipids compared to proteins and …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) enhances its replication by modulating host cell lipid metabolism.
HCV circulates in the blood in association with lipoproteins. HCV infection is associated with …

Intracellular infectious hepatitis C virus (HCV) particles display a distinctly higher buoyant
density than do secreted virus particles, suggesting that the characteristic low density of …

Recent advances in reverse genetics of hepatitis C virus (HCV) made it possible to
determine the properties and biochemical compositions of HCV virions. Sedimentation …
