A community prevalence study of antibodies to hepatitis A and E in inner-city London.

abstract：:HCV replication in extra-hepatic reservoirs has been suggested to occur in many tissues including PBMCs. A recent study showed evidence for compartmentalization and evolution of HCV in PBMCs. However, the cells that support HCV replication in PBMCs have not been identified. In this study we have fractionated the PBMC ...
