HCV genotype 1a shows a better virological response to antiviral therapy than HCV genotype 1b
BACKGROUND The impact of viral subtype on the rate of sustained virological response (SVR) to antiviral therapy in patients chronically infected with hepatitis C genotype 1 subtype 1a and 1b has not been extensively investigated. The aim of this study is to determine whether the HCV genotype 1 subtypes 1a and 1b respond differently to treatment with PEGylated interferon (PEG-IFN) plus ribavirin...
متن کاملGenome-wide analysis for identification of adaptive diversification between hepatitis C virus subtypes 1a and 1b.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver disease and has been estimated to infect approximately 2%-3% of the world's population. HCV genotype 1 is the subject of intense research and clinical investigations because of its worldwide prevalence and poor access to treatment for patients in developing countries and marginalized populations. The predominant subtypes 1a and 1b of HCV genotyp...
متن کاملEvaluation of an immunoblot assay for serological confirmation and differentiation of human T-cell lymphotropic virus types I and II.
The confirmation of infection with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) and type II (HTLV-II) currently involves multiple assays. These include Western blot (immunoblot) (WB) and/or radioimmunoprecipitation assay for detection of antibodies to HTLV-specific viral proteins and polymerase chain reaction and/or peptide-based enzyme immunoassays for differentiating between the two viruse...

متن کاملComparative results in detection of HCV antibodies by using a rapid HCV test, ELISA and immunoblot.
Viral hepatitis C is a major problem of post-transfusion hepatitis. The best measure for preventing hepatitis C infection in transfusion is blood donor screening. There are many methods for detecting hepatitis C virus antibodies. ELISA is one of the sensitive screening methods. However it needs equipment, technical skills and it is time consuming. The Genelabs Diagnostics HCV-SPOT is a simple, ...
